will reduce coal transportation time from Eastern India to regional power plants by over 40%. This section traverses 12 districts in Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, and Punjab. Meanwhile, the 244 km long New Makarpura Junction to New Gholvad section of the WDFC in Gujarat will enhance connectivity and efficiency in freight movement, particularly for perishable goods. This section will connect five districts and will reduce transit times, boosting income for farmers and entrepreneurs. Additionally, PM Modi will inaugurate the state-of-the-art Operation Control Centre (OCC) for the WDFC in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. This OCC, equipped with advanced technologies, serves as the nerve center for the 1506 km long Western Dedicated Freight Corridor, enabling real-time monitoring and control of freight train operations. These inaugurations highlight the transformative impact of Dedicated Freight Corridors on India's logistics landscape, with the goal of reducing logistics costs to less than 10% of GDP. The DFCs play a vital role in realizing India's economic potential by augmenting rail infrastructure, optimizing freight movement, and generating employment opportunities. The shift of freight trains to DFC tracks will also allow for more passenger trains on Indian Railways tracks, benefiting local communities.
