The road leading to the Deoria railway station is getting a major makeover. The government approved a project worth two crore rupees to reconstruct the dilapidated stretch from the BRDBDPG College Gate. This move will provide much-needed relief to passengers and locals who faced difficulties due to the poor condition of the road.
What are the key details of the road project?
The Deoria Municipality has completed the tender process and work will begin soon. The project focuses on replacing the old road with a durable cement concrete (CC) surface and improving the surrounding infrastructure. The funds are allocated as follows:
| Project Component | Allocated Budget |
|---|---|
| Cement Concrete (CC) Road (Railway Tiraha to Station) | 1 Crore Rupees |
| Permanent Drain and Slab (Southern Side) | 90 Lakh Rupees |
| Street Lights Installation | Remaining Funds |
Why was the project delayed for four years?
The project remained stalled for about four years because the railway authorities had not issued the necessary No Objection Certificate (NOC). The situation changed when Municipal Chairman Shweta Jaiswal met senior railway officials in Varanasi to resolve the issue. After the NOC was granted, the government released the funds to start the construction.
How is this different from the Amrit Bharat Station Scheme?
This road construction is a separate local project handled by the municipality. It is different from the larger redevelopment of Deoria Sadar Railway Station. The station modernization under the Amrit Bharat Station Scheme has a much larger budget of approximately 60.64 crore to 61 crore rupees for overall facilities and parking.
