During a visit to Jajpur and Bhadrak, Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw pledged to consider the proposal, further emphasizing the government's commitment to enhancing regional connectivity and economic prospects.
This development is expected to play a pivotal role in advancing the region's transportation infrastructure and economic prospects, while also fulfilling the aspirations of the local populace.
