MINISTER OF RAILWAYS AND COMMERCE & INDUSTRY (SHRI PIYUSH GOYAL)

Railway projects are not sanctioned District- wise/ State- wise but zone- wise, as Indian Railways’ network spans across various Districts/ State boundaries. However, Agra Fort- Bandikui (150 Km) doubling project falling partly in the district of Bharatpur has been included in the Budget 2018-19 subject to requisite Government approvals.
