Charlapalli Railway Station

Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the Charlapalli Railway Station in January, built at a cost of ₹ 4.3 billion. Designed as a major terminal in Hyderabad, it aims to decongest the existing Secunderabad and Nampally stations. The station is set to ease travel for nearly 50,000 passengers daily, serving as a halting point for 25 train pairs and facilitating the operation of 50 trains each day.

Pearl concept and connectivity

Discussing the design brief, RoopaKala D S, Principal Architect, RR Architects & Associates, says, "The architectural form of Charlapalli Railway Station is inspired by a shell, beautifully symbolising Hyderabad’s identity as the ‘City of Pearls’. The shell shape was chosen not only for its aesthetic appeal but also for its symbolic connection to the region’s long-standing tradition of pearl trading and craftsmanship. This form influences the station’s layout, optimising smooth circulation and efficient spatial arrangement. The organic flow of the design minimises congestion, allowing passengers to navigate easily through the station.”
