History
editIn 2014, the Prime Minister's office gave clearance for the line and the report was forwarded to the Ministry of Railway for a proposed broad-gauge railway line from Chhota Udaipur to Ratlam via Alirajpur, Khargone, Barwani through to Dhar. This railway line connected Dhar to the railway system for the first time after being demanded for a decade by the residents of Nimar region, as well as Eastern Gujarat.[2][3][4][5][6] It is to span 157-km, to be built at a cost Rs 1,286 crore.[7]
