The decks have been cleared for the construction of two rail lines in
Haryana as the Haryana Rail Infrastructure Development Corporation
Limited has completed their detailed survey and detailed project report,
an official said on Tuesday.
With the construction of the
Karnal-Yamunanagar (61 km) and Jind-Hansi (50 km) rail lines, the
long-standing demand of the people would be fulfilled, a government
spokesman said.
The estimated cost of these projects is Rs 1,173 crore and Rs 923 crore, respectively.
The proposed Karnal-Yamunanagar line would join the existing Bhaini-Khurd station on the Delhi-Ambala railway line.
The
construction of this line would provide direct and fast connectivity
between Karnal and Yamunanagar as the travel distance would be reduced
by 50 kilometres. Besides, it would also provide direct connectivity to
Haridwar.
The spokesman said the Jind-Hansi new line would join the existing Jind station on the Delhi-Bathinda railway line.
The construction of this line would reduce the distance between Jind and Hisar by 50 km.
