JDA yet to complete ROB, railway plans new project
2
Jaipur: At a time when the Jaipur Development Authority (JDA) is yet to complete the construction of barely 700 metre long Civil Lines Railway Overbridge (ROB), there are plans to construct another ROB connecting Bani Park and Hasanpura sides of the railway station.
Although experts are apprehensive about major chaos along the railway station if both constructions continue simultaneously on both sides of the Ajmer Road Puliya, JDA officials have claimed that they are trying their best to complete the construction of the Civil Lines RoB before the construction work for the proposed RoB starts.
"We set a revised deadline of Dec this year to complete the construction of Civil Lines ROB.
Even if we miss the deadline, we are hopeful to complete the Civil Lines ROB before railways start the construction work for the proposed ROB. It would take a few more months to commence the construction of the proposed ROB," stated a JDA official. Officials of the civic body made it clear that North Western Railway (NWR) would construct this proposed ROB connecting Ram Mandir on Bani Park side and Jal Mahal Chouraha in Hasanpura.

JDA and PWD would only help the railways to allocate lands on the Bani Park side near the Ram Mandir. On the Hasanpura side, railways would utilise lands of its own colony. Recently, during a Projects Work Committee meeting of JDA, the civic body sanctioned the GAD (General Arrangement Drawing) of the project, giving its approval to railways to construct the ROB.
"Earlier, there were plans to construct an underpass jointly by the railways and the public works department (PWD).
But in the feasibility report, it was mentioned that an underpass is not viable. So, now it has been decided to construct a ROB instead," said an official.
This would be the fifth means to cross the railway line within a stretch of around 4km between the Bais Godam and Bani Park Ram Mandir. Out of the remaining four, the Civil Lines flyover, the Ajmer Road Puliya and the Railway Station Puliya (connecting the ITC Rajputana Hotel and Jal Mahal Chouraha) are already operational.
JDA is constructing the ROB at the Civil Lines Phatak.
"The Hasanpura side of the railway junction is getting a major facelift. Once the renovation work is over, a huge footfall of passengers is expected on the Hasanpura side of the railway station. This proposed ROB can reduce traffic pressure on the Railway Station Puliya to a great extent," said a PWD official.

Patna: In a major push for clean energy, the state energy department on Saturday signed four memorandums of understanding (MoUs) with prominent power companies engaged in renewable energy and pumped storage to develop 2,357MW of green power, involving an estimated investment of Rs 5,337 crore. The MoUs were formalised during the launch of two ambitious policies — the Bihar Policy for Promotion of New & Renewable Energy Sources 2025 and the Bihar Policy for Promotion of Pumped Storage Project 2025 — at an event held at Gyan Bhawan. These policies are aimed at fostering green energy development and attracting major investment into the sector. The renewable energy policy is expected to unlock massive opportunities in solar, wind, biomass and newer technologies like green hydrogen and pumped storage systems. Energy minister Bijendra Prasad Yadav formally launched the two policies in the presence of industries minister Nitish Mishra, additional chief secretary of the industries department Mihir Kumar Singh, energy secretary Manoj Kumar Singh and the managing director of Bihar State Power Generation Company Ltd (BSPGCL) Mahendra Kumar. Several industry leaders and public sector representatives were also present. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Dubai villas | search ads Get Deals Undo Among the MoUs signed, the BSPGCL partnered with L&T to establish a 116MW/241 MWh battery energy storage project at Kajra in Lakhisarai with an investment outlay of Rs 837 crore. It also signed an MoU with NTPC Green to develop a 1,000MW battery energy storage system (BESS) with an estimated cost of Rs 1,500 crore.

BREDA also joined hands with SECI Ltd to set up floating solar and other renewable energy projects, cumulatively valued at Rs 3,000 crore. Addressing a gathering of representatives from leading renewable energy firms, PSUs and industry stakeholders, energy minister Yadav urged investors to look towards Bihar's growing potential. "We want to tap solar energy, a non-conventional source, for Bihar's development. For this, we have introduced a new policy. The policy is aimed at protecting our future generations. We need investment in the renewable energy sector for the country's development and the creation of employment opportunities," Yadav said. He added, "We must reduce carbon emissions to mitigate the effects of global warming and safeguard human lives." Urging industry not to be swayed by isolated incidents of crime, Yadav said, "Come and invest in Bihar. If required, we are open to amending the policy in future. Don't judge the state by a few incidents. Bihar has made significant progress."
