• Improved Operations: Upgrades in signalling systems and track capacity will increase train handling efficiency and punctuality.
According to railway officials, the project will not only enhance the overall travel experience but also improve regional rail connectivity, benefiting daily commuters, long-distance travellers, and the local economy.
The revamp of Ajni is part of the Indian Railways’ station redevelopment mission, which envisions creating modern transport nodes that serve as both efficient transit points and public spaces offering comfort and convenience.
Railway authorities have assured that the construction is being carried out without disrupting regular train services, and the project is on schedule for completion in the coming months.
