What does this status mean?

Meaningful delivery has occurred, but the stated commitment is incomplete.

Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.

Original manifesto wording

“We will make Gujarat a railway crossing-free state by constructing railway over-bridges and under-bridges to ensure safe and convenient travel for commuters across the state.”

Our Assessment

A concrete post-election milestone is the Bhuj–Naliya gauge-conversion project dedicated in October 2024, which included three road overbridges and 30 road underbridges. The Railway Ministry also reported a cumulative 1,177 Gujarat flyovers and underpasses in February 2026, without separating pre- and post-election work. In August 2026 it approved another overbridge at level crossing 305 on the Geratpur–Ahmedabad section. These works reduce crossings, but the statewide crossing-free outcome and number remaining are not documented.

The reasoning behind the verdict

Why this assessment?

Reviewed 12 Oct 2026

01 · Delivery status

Why partially done?

The Bhuj–Naliya project dedicated in October 2024 included three ROBs and 30 RUBs, providing direct post-election infrastructure delivery. Railways later sanctioned another Gujarat level-crossing replacement. The wider 1,177-structure figure is cumulative, and no zero-crossing state or comparable residual count is established, so the promise is Partially Done.

02 · Strength of evidence

Why medium confidence?

Railway Ministry releases directly document bridge activity and one still-open crossing. A statewide baseline, residual crossing count and post-2022 completion series were not found, so confidence is Medium.

What would help us reassess?

The documents that could clarify delivery of this commitment.

Number and location of active public level crossings in Gujarat at the 2022 baseline and now
Date-stamped list of ROBs and RUBs completed since the 2022 election
A certified statewide zero-crossing completion record
