1,318 stations get a groovy makeover with ‘Amrit Bharat Station Scheme’

Get ready for some mind-blowing railway vibes, ’cause the Ministry of Railways just dropped a bomb – the ‘Amrit Bharat Station scheme’ is here to take our train stations to the next level.

This lit scheme is all about giving our stations a major glow-up. Think Master Plans, yo. They’re cooking up some serious plans to upgrade station access, waiting areas, toilets, and more. Imagine cleaner spots, free Wi-Fi, and even kiosks with local goodies – it’s like a party for your senses.

And that’s not all, fam. The game plan also includes slick buildings, connecting stations with city vibes, being all eco-friendly, and even making spaces for our ‘Divyangjans.’ Ballast-less tracks, ‘Roof Plazas,’ and city centres are in the mix too – talk about futuristic.

Hold on to your seats, because 1,318 stations are on the list to get a glow-up under this rad scheme. And, in case you didn’t know, 1,251 stations are already rocking the ‘Adarsh Stations Scheme.’

Now, for the deets on the cash flow – they’re breaking it down zone-wise, not getting into states or specific stations. The plan is to drop a whopping ₹2,613.36 Crores this year alone.

And don’t even trip, fam. The Standing Committee’s 6th report on ‘Passenger Amenities’ is in the mix too. It’s all about keeping it real and updated, you know? So, there you have it – Indian Railways is turning stations into the hottest spots in town. Buckle up, peeps, ’cause this train is taking us to the future, and it’s gonna be lit.
