For many travelers in India, the railway station is the starting point of every major journey, still the experience is often defined by struggle. Outdated infrastructure has long been a hurdle for passengers. Recognizing that the passenger experience begins long before the train pulls out of the platform, Indian Railways is bridging this gap through the Amrit Bharat Station Scheme. Indian Railways has announced that they will upgrade and redevelop 13 railway stations in Delhi under the Amrit Bharat Station Scheme.
Indian Railway launched the Amrit Bharat Station scheme for transforming stations with modern amenities, improved connectivity and enhanced passenger experience. So far, 1338 stations have been identified by Indian Railways for redevelopment.
