stations are lagging behind schedule. These stations are undergoing a 25 crore rupee renovation, and the initial phase was supposed to be completed by January to allow for a new look by March/April.

bohot slow chal raha hai. Ye stations 25 crore rupees ke renovation ke liye ja rahe hain, aur pehle phase ka kaam January tak khatam hone wala tha, taaki March/April tak in stations ko naya look diya ja sake.
