“This will
involve the MoU that was to be signed on 20.01.2018 envisaged taking up of the
project in two phases. As the same could not be signed and the project has
already been delayed considerably, it is proposed by the State Government that
whole project may be taken in one phase. Accordingly, State Government has
moved for signing of revised MoU, which may be expeditiously approved by the
Railways,” said Patnaik.
