Expediting Railway Projects- A Comparison of UPA and NDA Government

But the existing infrastructure requires continuous expansion, upgradation and technology introductions.

You can’t crawl with the pace of a snail and expect the railways to function efficiently.

UPA sanctioned 54 new line projects covering a length of 5,431 Km while the NDA sanctioned 188 new line projects of 21,295 Km length and costing Rs 3.87 lakh crore.

Gauge means the spacing between the two rails of the same railway track.

If we want bigger trains to ply, it is necessary to convert meter gauges (one meter spacing) to broad gauges (1.4 meter).

UPA sanctioned 9-gauge conversion projects covering a length of 1,420 Km while the NDA sanctioned 55-gauge conversion projects of 7,275 Km length and costing Rs 56,135 crore.
