उज्जैन-झालावाड़ के बीच नई रेल सेवा; पिंक, ब्लू और रेड, तीन दमदार योजना तैयार

Western Central Railway has proposed three plans, Pink, Blue and Red, for a new rail service from Ujjain to Jhalawar. The Pink plan is estimated at ₹2836 crore, the Blue plan at ₹2727 crore, and the Red plan at ₹2697 crore. The difference in cost is due to variations in track...

length, curves, and the number of main bridges. The route from Ujjain to Agar differs in each plan. The Ministry will choose the preferred plan for implementation. In February 2023, the Union Railway Minister approved ₹4.75 crore for a detailed plan to connect Ujjain to Jhalawar via Agar, Susner, Soyatkalan, and Raipur. The three plans are still under finalization and were presented to MP Anil Firojiya on October 5th, 2023. A narrow gauge train operated between Ujjain and Agar from 1932 to 1975. The engine of that train (worth ₹1,61,276 at the time) is still displayed at Ujjain Railway Station. Western Central Railway had already started train operations between Jhalawar and Ramganj Mandi a decade ago. However, a direct line between Ujjain and Jhalawar remains on paper. Currently, passengers have to travel to Jhalawar via Ramganj Mandi, with trains departing at 8:10 am, 3:58 pm, and 8:45 pm. To improve connectivity, the National Highways Authority has converted the road from Ujjain to Ghonsla into a four-lane highway. The road to Jhalawar is 10 meters wide and is slated for four-laning before the 2028 Simhastha Kumbh Mela.

Western Central Railway ne Ujjain se Jhalawar ke liye ek nayi rail service shuru karne ke liye teen plans, Pink, Blue aur Red, tayyaar ki hain. Pink plan ki cost ₹2836 crore hai, Blue plan ₹2727 crore aur Red plan ₹2697 crore. Cost mein fark track ki lambai, curves aur...

main bridges ki sankhya ke karan hai. Har plan mein Ujjain se Agar tak ka route alag-alag hai. Ministry jo plan pasand karegi usko implement kiya jayega. February 2023 mein, Union Railway Minister ne Ujjain se Jhalawar ko Agar, Susner, Soyatkalan, aur Raipur ke raste connect karne ke liye ek detailed plan banane ke liye ₹4.75 crore approve kiye the. Teen plans abhi bhi finalization ke stage mein hain aur inko 5 October 2023 ko MP Anil Firojiya ke samne present kiya gaya tha. 1932 se 1975 tak Ujjain aur Agar ke beech ek narrow gauge train chalti thi. Us train ka engine (jo us time ₹1,61,276 ka tha) aaj bhi Ujjain Railway Station par display kiya gaya hai. Western Central Railway ne ek decade pehle Jhalawar se Ramganj Mandi tak rail line bichakar train operation shuru ki thi. Lekin Ujjain aur Jhalawar ke beech rail line abhi bhi paper par hi hai. Is samay, passengers ko Jhalawar jane ke liye Ramganj Mandi station utarna padta hai, jaha se trains subah 8:10 am, dopahar 3:58 pm aur raat 8:45 pm par chalti hain. Connectivity ko behtar banane ke liye, National Highways Authority ne Ujjain se Ghonsla tak ka rasta four-lane highway mein convert kiya hai. Jhalawar tak ki sadak 10 meter chaudi hai aur isko 2028 Simhastha Kumbh Mela se pehle four-lane mein convert karne ki plan hai.
