According to the proposed plan, the vacant land has been divided into two parts for both commercial and residential objectives to meet the needs of local people.

As per the RLDA vice-chairman Ved Prakash Dudeja, the first part of the land measuring approximately 1,846 sq m is allocated for railway redevelopment work, and the second part measuring nearly 5,514 sq m will be leased out for 99 years for commercial development.

Patna Junction premises has areas spreading over in the north end, Mithapur flyover in the west and auto stand in the south and railways main structures in the eastern side, he said, adding total construction value of railway redevelopment works comprising maintenance is likely to be approximately Rs 12.40 crore.

Railways have fixed the reserve cost of around Rs 47 crore for leasing out the land. The pre-bidding meeting will be conducted on January 25 while the deadline for final submission of the proposal will be March 7, 2022, Dudeja said, adding that Patna is a fast developing city that has undergone a sea shift in infrastructural development during the last five to six years.
