Railway Board Chief Reviews Key Bihar Rail Projects

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Railway Board, Satish Kumar, conducted a window trailing inspection of the Rajendranagar Terminal–Rajendrapul–Karpurigram–Bapudham Motihari railway section on Thursday. The inspection focused on safety protocols, monsoon preparedness, signal visibility, track maintenance, ballast conditions, overhead traction, track alignment, and fittings. He was accompanied by General Manager Chhatrasal Singh and senior railway officials.
Satish Kumar began the visit by reviewing the under-construction terminal platforms at Harding Park near Patna Junction. The five new platforms are expected to ease congestion at the existing Patna Junction, enhance train scheduling and turnaround times, and improve overall operational efficiency. The terminal will also feature underground connectivity to the under-construction metro line, local roads, and a newly developed multi-modal hub.
At Rajendranagar Terminal, he inspected the circulating area, passenger platforms, and available amenities before moving on to Rajendrapul station. There, he reviewed progress on a new railway bridge being constructed parallel to the existing Mokama Bridge over the Ganga River.
The Railway Board chief also visited Karpurigram station, where he examined ongoing development works, including passenger facilities, the foot over bridge, platforms, the circulating zone, and the goods shed.
Divisional Railway Managers Jayant Kumar Chaudhary (Danapur), Vivek Bhushan Sood (Sonpur), and Vinay Srivastava (Samastipur) accompanied Satish Kumar during the inspection across their respective zones.
