New Rewari-Jaipur Rail Line to Slash Travel Time!
A new 191-km rail line connecting Rewari and Jaipur will reduce travel time and boost industrial connectivity in Haryana and Rajasthan.
A massive infrastructural upgrade is on the horizon for commuters traveling between Haryana and Rajasthan. A new 191-kilometer rail line is being planned to connect Rewari and Jaipur, a move designed to bypass the heavily congested Delhi-Jaipur route that currently passes through Alwar and Bandikui.
Faster Journeys and Industrial Connectivity
This new rail corridor is set to revolutionize travel by cutting the journey time between Delhi and Jaipur by an estimated 1 to 1.5 hours. Beyond passenger convenience, the line is being designed to act as a vital artery for India's industrial growth by providing direct connectivity to several major commercial hubs.
The proposed track will pass through the following key locations:
- Shahjahanpur
- Neemrana
- Behror
- Kotputli
- Pawta-Pragpura
- Shahpura
By linking these areas, the project will support the growing economic zones in the region. Additionally, the new line will serve as an essential alternative route for long-distance trains traveling between Delhi, Rewari, Jaipur, Ahmedabad, and Mumbai.
Current Project Status and Funding
The project is moving steadily through its preliminary stages. As of November 2026, the Final Location Survey (FLS) is in its concluding stages. The Railway Board has already granted approval for both the FLS and the preparation of the Detailed Project Report (DPR).
To keep the momentum going, the authorities have sanctioned ₹5.73 crore specifically for these preliminary processes. The progress of the initiative has also been a point of discussion between Jaipur Rural MP Rao Rajendra Singh and Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw.
Timeline and Land Acquisition
Following the completion of the survey and the necessary administrative procedures, construction work is expected to commence in approximately 18 months. The final cost of the entire construction project will be determined once the DPR is finalized and submitted for board approval.
To facilitate the project, land acquisition will be carried out under standard regulations. Farmers whose land is required for the new track will receive compensation based on local market rates and collector rates.
