Extension of Rail Network to
Rural AreasPosted On: 21 JUN 2019 4:51PM by PIB Delhi
Based
on demands raised by State Governments, Central Ministries, Members of
Parliament, other public representatives & Railways’ own requirement, the
proposals for new line projects are considered. They are taken up on the basis
of remunerativeness, last mile connectivity, missing links and alternate
routes, augmentation of congested/saturated lines, socio-economic considerations
etc. depending upon throwforward of ongoing projects, overall availability of
funds and competing demands which covers connectivity in backward & rural
areas also. Since new lines generally straddle over more than one State,
details of ongoing projects are maintained Zone-wise.
Since 2014 till date, 23 New Line Projects have been commissioned covering a
total length of 2165.49 Km. These projects have provided connectivity to large
area including rural India. Details of these New Line Projects is given as
