📋 Tender Overview
Scope :
The new double line connecting Sardega in Sundargarh district of Odisha to Bhalumuda in Raigarh district of Chhattisgarh spans 37 kilometers and comes with an estimated cost of rs. 1360 crore. This railway line will significantly benefit the large tribal population in these regions, which share strong cultural and social ties. Currently, there is no bus service between Sardega and Bhalumuda, leaving the local population dependent on private vehicles. The introduction of this railway line will greatly improve connectivity for people in the adjoining villages, facilitating easier and more reliable travel. The project is expected to generate 25 lakh man-days of employment during its construction and will contribute to environmental sustainability by saving 84 crore kilograms of CO2 emissions, equivalent to planting 3.4 crore trees.
