The Ludhiana–Dhuri--Jakhal line is a railway line connecting Ludhiana in the Indian state of the Punjab and Jakhal in Haryana. The line is under the administrative jurisdiction of Northern Railway.

History

In 1893, an agreement for the construction, working and maintenance of the broad gauge Ludhiana-Dhuri-Jakhal railway line, via Sangrur, was signed between the British Raj and the native principalities of Jind State, Malerkotla State and Patiala State, since the line was situated partly in British territory and partly in the territory lying in the native principalities.[1] in 1901, this new line was commissioned, possibly by the Southern Punjab Railway Co.[2]

It was later extended to Hisar Junction railway station.

Electrification

Electrification of the Jakhal-Ludhiana line was ordered in 2013 but the work has started in March 2016 from Ludhiana side and foundation stone was led at Gill.

Tracks

Detailed survey for the doubling of the Ludhiana–Sangrur--Jakhal line has been ordered.[3]

Railway reorganisation

Southern Punjab Railway was taken over by the state and merged with North Western Railway in 1930.[4]

With the partition of India in 1947, North Western Railway was split. While the western portion became Pakistan West Railway, and later Pakistan Railways, the eastern part became Eastern Punjab Railway.[5]

In 1952, Northern Railway was formed with a portion of East Indian Railway Company, west of Mughalsarai, Bikaner Railway and Eastern Punjab Railway.[6]
