Defence Ministry: रक्षा मंत्रालय ने लिया बड़ा फैसला, जमालपुर की रेलवे इंजीनियरिंग रेजीमेंट होगी बंद

The Indian Ministry of Defence has decided to close the 969 Railway Engineering Regiment Tutorial Army Camp in Jamalpur, Bihar. Established in 1950, this camp provided military training to railway employees, particularly those working at the Jamalpur Railway Factory, which historically also produced ammunition. The camp's closure is part...

of a larger trend, as five other regional railway engineering regiments have already been shut down. The closure will impact approximately 1500 personnel, who will be relocated by September 2024. The camp was formed in 1949 under the Territorial Army Act, 1948, with the primary goal of maintaining railway communications in wartime and responding to emergencies like railway strikes during peacetime. A total of 20,000 railway employees have been trained at the camp since its inception, with the most recent training session occurring in March 2024. The closure of the camp will also see the closure of its canteen, which provided benefits to retired military personnel.

India ke Defence Ministry ne Jamalpur, Bihar me 969 Railway Engineering Regiment Tutorial Army Camp ko band karne ka faisla liya hai. 1950 me banaya gaya yeh camp, railway employees, especially Jamalpur Railway Factory me kaam karne waale logon ko military training deta tha.

tha. Yeh bandish ek badi trend ka part hai, jismein 5 aur regional railway engineering regiments pehle hi band ho chuke hain. Is bandish ka asar around 1500 personnel pe padega, jinhe September 2024 tak relocate kiya jaayega. Yeh camp 1949 me Territorial Army Act, 1948 ke neeche banaya gaya tha, jiska main maksad wartime me railway communication ko maintain karna aur peacetime me railway strikes jaisi emergencies me necessary railway transport system ko maintain karna tha. Yeh camp banne ke baad se 20,000 railway employees ko training di gayi hai, jismein sabse recent training session March 2024 me hua tha. Camp band hone se uska canteen bhi band ho jaayega, jisse retired military personnel ko faayda hota tha.

बिहार में यहां रेलवे खर्च करेगी 1890 करोड़, पुल से लेकर बिछेगी नई रेल लाइन, 5 जिलों को फायदा

The Indian Railways is investing 1890 crore rupees to double the railway line between Jamalpur and Munger in Bihar. This project will benefit people in 5 districts of Bihar and enhance the railway network in the state. The project will include the construction of a second track on the Y lane...

between Ratanpur and Munger. This will improve rail traffic between Jamalpur and Munger, as well as between Munger and Bhagalpur. It will also enable the operation of more goods trains, increasing railway revenue. The project also includes the construction of a new bridge alongside the existing Sri Krishna Setu bridge over the Ganga river in Munger. This bridge has been a long-awaited project, with its feasibility being explored during the Atal Bihari Vajpayee government. The final location survey and DPR for the project have been completed, and the construction work is expected to begin soon. The doubling of this rail line, which was approved two years ago, will increase train traffic and improve passenger convenience, benefiting people in Jamui and Banka districts as well.

Indian Railways Bihar mein 1890 crore rupees spend karne wali hai, aur isse Bihar ke 5 district ke logon ko direct fayda milega. Isse railway ko revenue bhi hoga aur Bihar mein rail network aur strong ho jayega. Bihar ke Munger district mein Jamalpur se Munger tak rail line...

ko double kiya jaayega. Isme 1890 crore rupees kharch honge. Ratanpur se Munger jaane wali Y lane pe bhi dusri rail patti bichai jaayegi. Isse Jamalpur aur Munger aur Munger aur Bhagalpur ke beech rail traffic mein suvidha hogi. Saath hi goods trains ke zyada chalne se railway ko zyada revenue bhi milega. Munger mein Ganga river pe ek bridge ban sakta hai. Abhi Munger district mein Ganga river pe bane Sri Krishna Setu pe single rail line guzarti hai. Jamalpur se Munger ke beech double karne se ab is bridge ke paas ek dusra bridge banne ki bhi aas lagi hai. Atal Bihari Vajpayee ke shaasankaal mein Munger ke railway bridge ko green signal mila tha aur tab se hi iske double karne ki maang bhi uthti rahi hai. Par ab DPR ready ho jaane ke baad logo mein iski umeed jagi hai. Munger mein railway line ke double karne ko lekar final location survey kar liya gaya hai aur DPR ready kar liya gaya hai. Ab jaldi hi double line ke nirman kaam ko anjaam de diya jaayega. Jamalpur Munger rail line ke double karne ke kaam ke liye survey ka kaam 2 March 2022 se hi shuru kiya gaya tha. Iske tahat drone aur photo grammetry technology ka use karke aerial survey kiya gaya tha. Ab jaake iska DPR banaya gaya hai. Jamalpur Munger railkhand ke double hone se is rail khand pe trains ki aawazahi badhegi aur yaatriyon ko various types ki suvidha milegi. Jamalpur ke Y lane ke double karne ka kaam samapn hone se Bhagalpur se Munger hote hue Khagaria aur Begusarai jaane wali train ki sankhya mein bhi izafa hoga aur iska fayda Jamui aur Banka ke logo ko bhi milega. Ab logo mein is railkhand ke double karne ki umeed kaafi tej ho gayi hai.

Work has not started yet. It is a very sad that it will take another 10 yrs to start and another 20 yrs to complete. This is all about Indian Railway work culture. Need Privatization in Indian Railway for quality service.
