Preface
Gajanan MallyaGeneral Manager
South Central Railway
Indian Railways is the driving force for national growth, giving mobility to the wheels of economic and industrial progress. South Central Railway (SCR) embodies this ethos in serving areas under its
ndcontrol. Formed on the day of Gandhi Jayanti, 2 October in 1966, SCR has made its mark as an ideal transport player for over 50 years.
The Zone covers almost the entire State of Andhra Pradesh, with the neighbouring East Coast and South Western Railways responsible for the remaining parts in the North and the South.The Railways has been contributing immensely to the socio-economic development of Andhra Pradesh, performing their best in both passenger and freight transport.
Andhra Pradesh is witness to the best period of rail development in the last 5 years. This reflects in the increased capital investments which rose from average grant of ̀ 886 crore between 2009-14 to ̀ 2,830 crore in 2014-19, a +219% increase. The rail network has expanded by 300 km of new lines and 132 km of Doubling and Tripling. This infrastructure thrust includes fast tracking of other works including Capacity enhancement.
The impetus to meet expectations of rail users in Andhra Pradesh is visible in the introduction of new trains, making stations digitally enabled, implementing the concept of Swachh Rail – 92
Swachh Bharat to optimise cleanliness at Railway stations and trains, enhancing standards of passenger facilities/amenities and ensuring stations become ‘Divyangjan’ friendly. Passenger Security is also a prime area of attention. The Railways is also committed to promotion of environmental sustainability by ensuring LED lighting in all Railway Stations in Andhra Pradesh State. Important Railway Stations, administrative buildings and Workshops located in the state of Andhra Pradesh are recipient of the coveted Green-Co Certification from Confederation of Indian Industry.
The people of Andhra Pradesh will experience better rail connectivity and services in the times to come, as Indian Railways is taking faster strides to a brighter future.
It may be noted that the budgets allocated to various projects are not apportioned State wise but reflect the cost of the project.
