Rewari-Jaipur Rail Link: Land Acquisition to Begin Soon!
The 191-km Rewari-Jaipur railway corridor is moving forward. Land acquisition will soon begin, promising faster travel and industrial growth.
The Ministry of Railways is moving full steam ahead with the ambitious 191-km Rewari-Jaipur railway corridor project. In a major step forward, authorities are now preparing to initiate the land acquisition process for the various villages and towns that lie along the proposed route.
Survey and Construction Timeline
The project is currently in the final stages of its Final Location Survey (FLS). Once this survey is successfully completed, and the Detailed Project Report (DPR) is finalized alongside all necessary technical and government approvals, construction is expected to kick off within the next 1.5 years.
To support the local community, officials have confirmed that farmers whose land is acquired for this project will receive compensation calculated based on prevailing local market rates and established collector rates.
Connecting Industrial Powerhouses
This new railway line is strategically designed to serve as a vital artery for industrial growth in the region. The route is planned to pass through several key locations, including:
- Shahjahanpur
- Neemrana
- Behror
- Kotputli
- Paota-Pragpura
- Shahpura
By connecting these areas, the corridor will provide critical rail access to major industrial hubs, most notably the Japanese Investment Zone in Neemrana and significant sections of the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC).
Faster Travel and Reduced Congestion
For commuters and travelers, the benefits of this new infrastructure are substantial. Overseen by the Railway Board and the North Western Railway (NWR), the project aims to:
- Significantly reduce travel time between Rewari and Jaipur by approximately 1 to 1.5 hours.
- Alleviate the heavy congestion currently experienced on existing Delhi-Jaipur rail routes.
Jaipur Rural MP Rao Rajendra Singh has been working closely with Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw to expedite the implementation of this project and ensure its timely completion for the benefit of the public.
