Indian Railway takes up 513 new line projects on zonal level
Indian Railways has taken up 513 new line rail projects including Gauge Conversion and Track Doubling on Zonal levels and as of now, all these projects are in different stages of planning, sanction and execution. The completion of these projects depends on various factors like quick land acquisition by State Government, forest clearance by forest department, shifting of infringing utilities, statutory clearances from various authorities, geological and topographical conditions of the area, law and order situation and the prevailing climatic conditions. Moreover, all of them differ from project to project and affect the completion time of the project. Railways Minister, Piyush Goyal informed that the Average Annual Budget allocation for Infrastructure and Safety works during 2014-19 has increased to ₹26,026 crore per year from ₹11,527 crore per year (during 2009-14), which is 126% more than Average Annual Budget allocation of 2009-14. The Budget allocation during 2019-20 has further increased to ₹39,836 crore which is around 245% more than Average Annual Budget allocation of 2009-14 and is also the highest ever expenditure in any financial year for Infrastructure and Safety works.
