Explanation:

A first-of-its-kind elevated railway track project is all set to come up in Rohtak, the 6th most populous city in Haryana.

This aims at decongesting Rohtak city, providing safety to road users by eliminating five busy level crossings connecting residential colonies, and enable operational flexibility for the Railways.

Manohar Lal Khattar, the Haryana CM, formally launched the project on March 17, 2018. The ambitious, 6-km track, costing around Rs 316 crore, is set to come up on the Rohtak-Panipat line in 18 months, and the existing railway track will be replaced by a road, which will be built at the cost of Rs 8 crore.
