The project will provide seamless connectivity and assist in enhancing the average speed of trains, informed the PMO through its statement.

    Later in the day, Prime Minister Modi will lay the foundation stone for AIIMS Bibinagar at the public programme at Parade Ground in Hyderabad. AIIMS Bibinagar is being built at a cost of more than Rs 1,350 crore.

    The establishment of AIIMS Bibinagar is an important milestone in providing comprehensive, quality and holistic tertiary care health services to the people of Telangana at their doorstep, said the PMO statement.

    During the programme, PM Modi will also lay the foundation stone of National Highway projects worth more than Rs 7,850 crore. These road projects will strengthen the road connectivity of both Telangana and Andhra Pradesh while also contributing to the socio-economic development of the region.
