Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced a new hydrogen train project in Haryana during a recent press briefing, highlighting the state's role in India's clean‑energy push.
The initiative will involve setting up hydrogen production units and refueling stations along the rail corridor, with plans to build dedicated factories that will supply the required fuel and components.
Modi said the project is expected to create thousands of jobs, ranging from skilled technicians to support staff, and would boost the local economy by attracting investment in green infrastructure.
The government will begin feasibility studies next month, with the first phase of construction slated for 2025, and aims to integrate the hydrogen train into the national rail network by 2030.
