Completed: Haridaspur-Paradeep line - Chitta - 05-21-2022
As per https://www.orissapost.com/no-passenger-trains-yet-on-haridaspur-paradip-route/ (Jan 2022) the line has been completed since late 2020, but there are no passenger trains yet. Some good trains are running and works on the stations are going on.
Congress did a Rail roko in November 2021 to protest demanding start of passenger services.
