Three years after the project began, only 13% of the new Ambaji railway station has been completed, highlighting significant delays.
The Gujarat government’s plan to build a new railway station at the pilgrimage town of Ambaji has hit a major slowdown. Construction began three years ago, but recent reports show that just 13% of the work is done.
The limited progress has raised concerns among local officials and residents who expected the station to improve connectivity for the influx of pilgrims visiting the famous Ambaji temple. The delay threatens to postpone the anticipated boost in tourism and local commerce.
Authorities have not released a revised timeline, but the current pace suggests that the original completion date will not be met. Stakeholders are urging the responsible agencies to accelerate work and address bottlenecks.
