Guntakal railway station now resembles an airport

The Guntakal railway station now resembles an international airport after it has been given a major facelift with a lot of greenery and a monumental national flag pole overlooking the modified facade of the building. As part of the redevelopment of the entire station premises, a new platform has been constructed to have a direct approach from the entrance improving the ease of accessing the train compartments for passengers coming with heavy luggage. The entire set of works executed by the South Central Railway (SCR) cost ₹11.5 crore. One of the key railway junctions in the South, it has connectivity in all directions like Mumbai (west), Secunderabad (north), Vijayawada (east), Chennai, and Bengaluru in the south.
