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.
