Overview

  • South Central and Central Railway announced the rechristening over the weekend, stating the competent authority has approved the change.
  • The station will be referenced by the updated code CPSN and remains under the Nanded Division of South Central Railway.
  • A bilingual release instructed that the former name be discontinued in all railway correspondence and systems.
  • The state government’s October 15 gazette notification cleared the administrative path for the railway to implement the new name.
  • The shift follows the city’s renaming nearly three years ago in honor of Chhatrapati Sambhaji; the station, opened in 1900, serves as a gateway to the Ajanta and Ellora UNESCO sites.
