While the recent projects are seen as a
positive step taken for the enhancement of India’s infrastructure space, it is
worth pointing out that both Andhra Pradesh and Bihar are presently part of the ruling
alliance led by BJP.
“To provide connectivity to Amravati, a new
57-km-long line worth Rs 2,245 crore will be constructed. For this, a
3.2-km-long new bridge will be constructed on the Krishna river which will be
among longest bridges of the Indian Railway,” Railway Minister Shri
Ashwini Vaishnaw said in a release. The project is expected to cost Rs 2,245 crore and provide 1.9 million
human days of employment.
The new rail line will connect around 168
villages and a population of nearly 1.2 million. As for the northern Bihar rail
corridor, it is expected to be a “multi-tracking project (which) will enhance
connectivity to two aspirational districts of Sitamarhi and Muzaffarpur”, the
statement said.
The corridor will serve over 380 villages
with a “cumulative population of nine lakh,” the statement added.
The government is also planning to schedule
136 extra trains alongside special arrangements at multiple stations. This is
being done to meet the massive travel demand during the festival season,
especially as Diwali approaches.
Both the projects proposed by the ministry will follow
environmentally-friendly implementation, as per the Ministry. Ashwini Vaishnaw
also stated that the initiatives are expected to reduce
CO2 emissions by around 168 crore kilograms. This is equivalent to
the plantation of 70 million trees.
He also emphasised that “the Railways, as
an environment-friendly and energy-efficient mode of transportation, will play
a crucial role in achieving the country’s climate goals while significantly
reducing logistics costs.”
The project is also expected to create job
opportunities at a large scale. As per the release, the proposed plane will
create around 106 lakh human days of direct employment.
