The Satna–Devendranagar and Rewa–Churhat rail sections opened in October 2026 form part of which railway project?
- A.Katni–Singrauli project
- B.Lalitpur–Singrauli project
- C.Indore–Dahod project
- D.Jabalpur–Gondia project
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is the Lalitpur–Singrauli project. Both the new sections, Satna–Devendranagar of about 53 km and Rewa–Churhat of about 65 km, were built under this project, which the Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh put at about 541 km and described as a link between Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh covering Lalitpur, Chhatarpur, Panna, Satna, Rewa, Sidhi and Singrauli. Option A, Katni–Singrauli, is a different stretch where doubling and allied work is going on in the state, and it does not include Devendranagar or Churhat. Option C, Indore–Dahod, lies in western Madhya Pradesh and is listed separately among the projects in hand in the state. Option D, Jabalpur–Gondia, runs towards Maharashtra and is likewise a separate work. So only the Lalitpur–Singrauli project answers the question.
