Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday virtually inaugurated three redeveloped railway stations in West Bengal under the Centre's Amrit Bharat Station Scheme, officials said.
The three stations -- Panagarh, Kalyani Ghoshpara and Joychandi Pahar -- are among the 103 Amrit Bharat railway stations inaugurated by the PM across the country through video conferencing from Bikaner in Rajasthan, they said.
Panagarh and Kalyani Ghoshpara are under the jurisdiction of the Eastern Railway, while Joychandi Pahar is part of the South Eastern Railway. Both these zonal railways are headquartered in Kolkata.
These existing railway stations have undergone a total revamp with new passenger facilities and aesthetics, the officials said.
A total of 100 railway stations in West Bengal have been taken up for redevelopment under the Amrit Bharat Station Scheme, they added.
