Revamped Ranchi railway station eyes 2025 opening

RANCHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday remotely inaugurated the Indian Railways’ proposed re-development plan of Ranchi railway station from Deoghar. The Rs 447 cr project is expected to be completed by 2025, divisional officials here said.

The Ranchi railway station will have two three-storied buildings on its north and south sides, which will be connected by a road overbridge to ease the movement of passengers.

There will be 10 new lifts, 17 escalators, separate arrangements for the arrival and the departure of passengers, mechanised parcel handling system, and a 72 mt elevated concourse for house cafetarias, restaurants, rest rooms, and other amenities.
