The redevelopment of Yadadri Railway Station in Telangana is progressing rapidly under the Amrit Bharat Station Scheme. Designed to reflect the architecture of the Yadadri Temple, the station is expected to become one of the most visually striking railway stations in the country. Around 58% of the work has been completed, with Rs 24.45 crore allocated for its modernization.
