Indian Railways are the principal mode of transportation for freight and passengers in India. However, while some railway stations are known for their beauty or length of platform others have some unique characteristics. For instance, the Navapur railway station is located in the Nandurbar District of Maharashtra. However, it does not belong to any single state. This station has two parts. One part is in Gujarat and the other is in Maharashtra.
A station bench cuts right through the Maharashtra-Gujarat border. As in half of the bench with its part of the station is situated in Maharashtra and the other half in Gujarat!
“Did You Know? Navapur Railway Station of Western Railway is a unique station located on the border of Maharashtra & Gujarat.” said a recent post by the Indian Railways. Former Union Minister of Railways, Piyush Goyal had also tweeted the photo in 2018 and said, “Separated by States, United by Railways.”
