kms between Mandamarri and Raghavapuram stations.
1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Brief History:

Ballarshah (BPQ) Kazipet (KZJ) line was first completed
in 1929. Electrification was completed in 1988-89. The survey work
was first taken up for entire Ballarshah (BPQ) Kazipet (KZJ)
section in 2005-06 vide blue book item no: 16. The survey was done
and report submitted to Board in May-2008 at a cost of Rs. 1207.41
Crs with ROR of 20.24%.
Part patch tripling for 24.47 km between Raghavapuram-
Ramagundam-Peddampeta (RGPM-RDM-PPZ) and Mancherial and
Mandamari (MCI-MMZ) (3block section) was sanctioned in 2009.
Further section between Mancherial and Peddampet (MCI-PPZ)
stations for 7.84 Km was sanctioned by GM for Rs. 85.66 Crs vide
sanction no. . So a total of 33.20 km length out of 236 km was
sanctioned for patch tripling. The patch tripling between Mancherial
and Peddampet (MCI-PPZ) includes an important bridge (44X24.4m,
PSC Box Girder) on river Godavari. The work for 24.47 km between
RGPM-RDM-PPZ and MCI-MMZ (3block section) nearly completed
and after receipt of condonation of Board for yard gradient
infringements NI works for commissioning will be taken up. The work
between MCI-PPZ (including important bridge (44X24.4m, PSC Box
Girder) on river Godavari) is also in progress and is likely to be
commissioned by next financial year 2016-17.
The balance length of 202 km has been sanctioned by Board
vide item no.39 of PB of 2015-16 at a cost of Rs. 2020 Crs. An
amount of Rs.46.19 Crs has been provided under EBR (IF) for
financial year 2015-16.
Further as per Boards lr. no.2013/W-I/Gen/Survey/Budget

Important/Major stations: Following are the Important/Major stations.

Ballarshah (BPQ) :
It is located at 19.84N and 79.348E at Km 132.40. This is main
junction and interchanging points for train crew and exchange point
between South Central Railway and Central railway. This is in
Chandrapur district of Maharashtra. It is in Nagpur division of Central
Railway.
Ballarpur/Ballarshah is a city and a municipal council in Chandrapur
district in the state of Maharashtra, India. Many people call this city as
mini India due to large number of people from all over India. Reason
behind these much diversity in people is BILT (Ballarpur Industries Ltd)
which is a famous paper industry which created huge employment
opportunity for people from all around in its early days. However now
they have started to cut down their employee strength. The city is also
one of the largest industrial areas of the region making it second
largest city in the district.

History
The king of Ballarpur was Balhar Sah. The town was named
BALLARSHAH after him. King BALLARSHAH shifted his capital from
Sirpur to BALLARSHAH in middle Ages. He built BALLARSHAH fort.
Afterwards he shifted his capital to Chandrapur. Even today the ruins
of the old BALLARSHAH fort can be seen on the banks of Wardha
River.

Demographics

Transport:
Ballarshah is the last station in the Central Railway zone of Indian
Railways. Hence all the trains entering South Central Railway zone
stop here for Crew Change (TTE, Loco Pilots, Guards, RPF) as well
as to upload pantry stuff from the base kitchen in Ballarshah.
Ballarshah is also a semi-road transport hub. The state highway that
passed through BALLARSHAH considerably cuts the time to travel
from Nagpur to Hyderabad. There are many transport companies
based in BALLARSHAH. Ballarpur has a good connectivity to Nagpur
and Hyderabad due to its proximity.

Economy

Warangal(WL):
Warangal is the most important historic city in the Telangana region. It
was the capital of the Kakatiya rulers who practiced Veera Shaivam
which led to the construction of some magnificent Shiva temples in the
area. Warangal district is located in the northern region of the state of
Telangana, India. The administrative seat is Warangal. The district is
at a distance of approx. 80 km. from the state capital Hyderabad.
Warangal District has an area of 12,846 km, and a population of
3,246,004 of which 19.20% was urban as of 2011. The district is
bounded by Karimnagar District to the North, Khammam District to the
East and Southeast, Nalgonda District to the Southwest, and Medak
District to the West. Warangal is well known for its granite quarries
(notably the black and brown varieties) and as a market for rice, chili
peppers, cotton, and tobacco.

History:
Warangal, then known as Oragullu, was the capital of the Kakatiya
dynasty from 1195 until that ruling family was defeated by the Delhi
Sultanate in 1323. The city was then renamed as Sultanpur.
The Kakatiyas rulers left many monuments, including an impressive
fortress, four massive stone gateways, the Swayambhu temple
dedicated to Shiva, and the Ramappa temple situated near Ramappa
Lake. The cultural and administrative distinction of the Kakatiyas was
mentioned by Marco Polo. After the defeat of Prataparudra II,
the Musunuri Nayaks united 72 Nayak chieftains and captured
Warangal from Delhi Sultanate and ruled for fifty years. After the
demise of the Nayaks, Warangal was part of the Bahmani
Sultanate and then the Sultanate of Golconda.
The Mughal emperor Aurangzeb conquered Golconda in 1687, and it
remained part of the Mughal empire until the southern provinces of the
empire split away to become the state of Hyderabad in 1724, which
included the Telangana region and some parts of Maharashtra and
Karnataka. Hyderabad was annexed to India in 1948, and became
an Indian state. In 1956 Hyderabad was partitioned as part of
the States Reorganization Act, and Telangana, the Telugu-speaking
region of Hyderabad state, which includes Warangal, became part of
Andhra Pradesh.

Geography and climate:

Warangal is located at 18.0N 79.58E. It has an average elevation of
302 metres (990 feet). It is settled in the eastern part of Deccan
Plateau made up of granite rocks and hill formations which left the
region barren making the cultivation depend on seasonal rainfalls.
There are no river flows nearby Warangal, which makes it to rely
on Kakatiya Canal which originates from Sriram Sagar Project to meet
the drinking water requirements. Located in the semi-arid region of
Telangana, Warangal has a predominantly hot and dry climate.
Summer starts in March, and peak in May with average high
temperatures in the 42 C (108 F) range. The monsoon arrives in
June and lasts until September with about 550 mm (22 in) of
precipitation. A dry, mild winter starts in October and lasts until early
February, when there is little humidity and average temperatures in
the 2223 C (7273 F) range. Many hill rocks and lakes are settled
around Warangal. Padmakshi hill and Govinda Rajula Gutta are two
famous hills with temples. Bhadrakali and Waddepally are the two
famous lakes which adds scenic beauty and also are the major
sources of drinking water.

Economy:
According to the 2011 census of India, Warangal is one of the Indian
cities that has seen rapid growth of urbanisation. This category is led
by cities such as Gandhinagar (35% to 43%), Warangal (19% to
28%), Kozhikode (38% to 67%) and Krishna (32% to 41%).
Agriculture is the main economic activity with irrigation depending
mainly on monsoon and seasonal rainfalls. Major crops
are paddy,cotton, mango and wheat. Warangal benefits from the
 Godavari lift irrigation scheme which is designed to lift water from the
Godavari river to irrigate drought prone areas in the Telangana region.
The city hosts Asia's second-biggest grain market, located in
Enumamula. It is also attracting investors in information
technology. The incubation tower at Madikonda is likely to play a
significant role in this development.

Bathukamma:
Bathukamma is a floral festival celebrated by women of Warangal,
worshipping the goddess with different flowers for nine days. Though
the festival is celebrated all over the state, it is famously known as
major festival of Warangal. After arranging different flowers in
attractive manner which are available in the season, women carry
their "Bathukamma" to nearest temple in their locality, after crowd
gatherings they clap, sing and dance rhythmically around the
Bathukamma. Along with Bonalu, "Bathukamma" is declared as
state festival on 15 June 2014.
Among the educational institutions in the city are:

Kakatiya University is a university of Warangal and has 471

affiliated colleges.
NIT Warangal, formerly known as Regional Engineering College.
Kakatiya Medical College, renamed as Kaloji Health University in
2014, is a government medical college founded in 1959.

GEOLOGY: The project lies between Ballarshah and Kazipet. The

alignment passes through reserve forest of Rajura between Ballarshah
and Manikgarh and Kannala Forest between Raghavapuram and
Ramagundam stations and passes through four major rivers i.e. Wardha,
Bibra, Godawari and Maner. The major length is in bank.
