Joshi mentioned that the Haryana Rail Infrastructure Development Corporation (HRIDC) is constructing a 5.875-km elevated railway track in Kurukshetra city to reduce congestion by eliminating five level crossings. This project aims to ensure uninterrupted rail operations on the Kurukshetra-Narwana line and is nearing completion. He emphasized that these projects are a testament to the HRIDC's commitment to sustainable and inclusive rail infrastructure, which drives regional development and improves connectivity across Haryana.
