During his visit to Madhya Pradesh on Monday (15 November), Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate the redeveloped Rani Kamalapati Railway Station.
The redeveloped Rani Kamalapati Railway station, named after brave and fearless Queen Kamalapati of the Gond kingdom, is the first world class railway station in Madhya Pradesh.
Redeveloped in Public Private Partnership (PPP) mode, the station has been designed as a green building with modern world class amenities that also takes into account ease of mobility for differently abled people. The station is also developed as a hub for integrated multi-modal transport.
This will be the second such redeveloped station after Modi was re-elected in 2019. The earlier one was in Gandhinagar. The world-class railway station with airport-like facilities has been revamped at a cost of Rs 450 crore.
The modern station will have several features such as segregation of passengers based on arrivals and departures, enough sitting arrangement at platforms, lounges, concourse as well as dormitories and retiring rooms.
There are about 400 major stations including New Delhi which have been shortlisted for redevelopment across the country.
