Railway witnessed extraordinary growth under PM Modi's leadership: MP CM

MP CM Yadav commends PM Modi's leadership for extraordinary railway growth and new BEML unit.

"It will strengthen the industrial ecosystem of both the state and the nation. - Mohan Yadav"

Bhopal, May 14

Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav said on Wednesday that the railway sector has witnessed extraordinary progress in the last decade under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The Chief Minister said that multiple components of modern trains like the Metro and Vande Bharat are manufactured within the country, and various companies in this field have represented some of the finest examples for the ‘Made in India’ mission.

Yadav made these remarks during his visit to the BEML (Bharat Earth Movers Limited) workshop in Bengaluru on Wednesday. BEML will also manufacture rolling stock and metro coaches in Madhya Pradesh.

He added that the ties between Karnataka and Madhya Pradesh will grow stronger, and new avenues for mutual development will be explored.

During his visit, the Chief Minister handed over the land allotment letter for setting up BEML’s new rolling stock manufacturing unit in Madhya Pradesh's Raisen district, which is located adjacent to Bhopal.

Terming the establishment of BEML's unit in Madhya Pradesh as an unprecedented initiative, Yadav said that setting up a metro and rail coach manufacturing unit is a significant step toward the inclusive and sustainable development of the state.

"It will strengthen the industrial ecosystem of both the state and the nation. It will also open new opportunities for employment and enterprise for youths," Chief Minister Yadav said.

He further stated that the state government has approved the allotment of 60.63 hectares of land for the proposed unit, which will manufacture rolling stock and metro coaches for major railway and urban transport projects.

In its initial phase, the unit will focus on manufacturing stainless steel car body coaches, with plans to expand capabilities in the future.

The plant will be equipped with modern infrastructure, designed not only to meet domestic requirements but also to cater to global market demand.

The project will be implemented in a phased manner, ensuring strategic and sustainable operations.

Vande Bharat trains are truly world-class! 🚄 As someone who travels frequently between Delhi and Mumbai, I've seen the transformation firsthand. The speed, cleanliness and comfort are remarkable. Hope to see more routes covered soon.

While the new trains are impressive, I wish the government would focus equally on improving basic facilities at smaller stations. Many rural stations still lack clean toilets and drinking water. Development should be inclusive for all passengers.

Made in India metro coaches is a proud moment! 🇮🇳 This will reduce our dependence on foreign manufacturers and create skilled jobs. Hope the quality matches international standards though - we shouldn't compromise on safety.

As a Bhopal resident, I'm excited about the new manufacturing unit! MP needs more industries like this. But government should ensure local youth get proper training to work there, not just bring workers from outside.

Railway development is good but ticket prices are rising too fast. Middle class families are finding it difficult to afford AC travel now. Development should be affordable for common people too, not just showcase projects.

The Karnataka-MP collaboration is a smart move! 🤝 More states should work together like this for manufacturing excellence. Hope this becomes a model for other sectors too - we have so much potential when states cooperate.
