Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs sanctioned track doubling for the Bakhtiyarpur–Rajgir–Tilaiya railway segment Wednesday. The Bihar project spans 104 kilometers and requires Rs 2,192 crore funding. Railway authorities will connect four districts through this infrastructure expansion. The enhanced line will serve 1,434 villages and benefit 13.46 lakh residents across Gaya and Nawada aspirational districts. Pilgrimage sites such as Rajgir's Shanti Stupa, Nalanda, and Pawapuri gain improved access through this development.

Freight transportation will increase by 26 million tonnes annually. Coal, cement, clinker, and fly ash shipments will move more efficiently along this corridor. Environmental advantages emerge from reduced petroleum imports of 5 crore liters. Carbon dioxide emissions decrease by 24 crore kilograms, matching the environmental impact of planting 1 crore trees. The PM-Gati Shakti National Master Plan guides this railway enhancement. Multi-modal connectivity advances through integrated planning approaches that reduce logistics expenses while supporting regional economic growth.
