Development
The railways decided to redevelop Nishatpura into a fully-functional railway station, to decrease the load on the Bhopal Junction railway station as the trains coming from Bina and going towards Indore have to undergo loco-reversal at Bhopal Junction. The development of Nishatpura would save the time and logistics both.[2][3][4][5]
