South Central Railway (SCR) general manager Sanjay Kumar Srivastava inspected Mahabubabad railway station and reviewed development works being carried out at the facility. He travelled by a special train from Kacheguda to Warangal and conducted a rear-window inspection of the railway section.

During the inspection, Srivastava reviewed signal visibility, overhead traction systems, track condition, sectional caution orders and train speeds. The exercise was intended to assess operational and safety conditions along the route and identify issues requiring attention by the railway administration.

At Mahabubabad station, the general manager took part in the Swachhata Hi Seva programme and administered a cleanliness pledge to railway officials and staff. He also planted saplings on the station premises as part of the programme’s activities.

Srivastava inspected redevelopment works being executed under the Amrit Bharat Station Scheme and sought progress details from officials. Mahabubabad MLA Dr Murali Naik Bhukya also met the SCR general manager to discuss railway development issues affecting the constituency. Srivastava later briefed the media about ongoing railway works in the region.

The general manager subsequently inspected Track Relaying Train (TRT) works between Mahabubabad and Tadlapusapalli stations. Officials explained that the machine removes old rails and sleepers, corrects ballast and lays new sleepers and rails through one mechanised process. The use of the TRT is expected to accelerate track renewal while reducing disruption to train operations, manual intervention and reliance on conventional cranes.
