It also said that the station development tenders have already been awarded on 'Engineering, Procurement and Construction' (EPC) mode and at present the development work is in progress.
IRSDC Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer SK Lohia said, "The development of land parcels will offer provision for facilities like residential complexes, hotel, retail, office spaces, commercial complexes and markets, etc. which makes it attractive for real estate developers."
"It also offers huge economic benefits in terms of increased employment, reduced environmental pollution and overall improvement in living standard of people in the catchment area," Lohia said.
