of the National Planning Group of the Central Government and the advice of the NITI Aayog. The railway board has approved the project and a letter was sent to the Northeast Railway in Gorakhpur on July 2nd. The railway has also requested 12,000 square meters of land from the Uttar Pradesh government for the construction of a new railway station near the CSJM University and other construction work, despite the government's prior commitment to providing the land free of charge. The tendering process for the project will begin in September and the construction of the elevated track will start with a budget of ₹995 crore. The new design for the elevated track involves a single railway line instead of a double line and a girder-supported track instead of a box-shaped viaduct. This will reduce the project's cost and will also include a new elevated station near the university and a loop line for stopping trains. The project will also eliminate the Rawatpur and Kalyanpur railway stations. The elevated track will be built on pillars with a box-shaped section at the beginning and end to facilitate smooth transitions. The project will take three years to complete.
