PM Modi’s Innovative Idea of Roof Plaza Over Railway Stations
PM Modi’s appreciates thorough explanations and consistently has fresh ideas. He always urges people to “look decades ahead” when planning any type of development. Ashwini Vaishnaw, the railway minister, gave one such suggestion for roof plazas over railroad stations, which will contribute to the transformation of the train system over the next 50 years.
Vaishnaw claims that PM Modi’s has extraordinary attention to detail and that he is never satisfied with a cursory presentation. The rail minister illustrated how the prime minister came up with the idea of roof plazas as interesting and participatory urban areas in the middle of the city by using railroad stations as an example. He instructed Vaishnaw to “look 50 years ahead.”
“We were initially given a goal of 50 stations by PM Modi’s. Even though my presentation to him lasted more than two hours, Prime Minister Modi wasn’t happy. Later that night, he called again, adding that although this design is appropriate now, we must consider the next 50 years “In a brief interview with Modi Story, a project devoted to PM Modi’s personal story, he added.
According to Vaishnaw, the PM said that because every station was located in the city’s centre, there will always be a shortage of room. He suggested creating a roof plaza over railroad tracks as a brand-new urban place.

a railroad station for everyone, not just travellers
The prime minister informed Vaishnaw that the roof plazas might have waiting places, stores featuring and offering regional goods, food courts, locations for kids to play, and other amenities.
As an urban place, the roof plaza has the potential to serve as a form of connection. These roof plazas might have an out-to-out connection, unlike railway stations, which sometimes fail to link two different regions of the city.
Additionally, Modi advised the minister that the railroad station should serve more than simply travellers. It is intended for every city resident as an urban space.
“PM Modi’s carefully considers every possibility. This is incredibly special and useful to us. Of course, we must make extensive preparations “Vaishnaw threw in.
