Charbagh station touches 100 years of its foundation
1 2 Lucknow: Northern Railway on Sunday unveiled a commemorative booklet celebrating the 100 years of Charbagh Railway Station completing its foundation. Sunil Kumar Verma, divisional railway manager (DRM), Lucknow Division, was the chief guest. More than a transit hub, Charbagh stands as a living monument in the heart of Lucknow. According to the booklet, its story began in 1914, when Bishop George Herbert laid the foundation stone. After nearly a decade of construction, the station's foundations were completed on Aug 1, 1925. Now, in 2025, it enters its centenary foundation year, symbolizing a century of visionary engineering and cultural legacy. "Charbagh is not just a station; it's a heritage site that reflects the soul of Lucknow," said the DRM. Built in the Indo-Saracenic architectural style, Charbagh seamlessly blends Rajput, Awadhi, Mughal, and Western design elements. Its unique structure ensures that even with over 250 trains passing daily, the sound remains inaudible from outside — a marvel of acoustic foresight. The booklet also highlights Charbagh's historical significance. On Dec 26, 1916, the station hosted the first meeting between Mahatma Gandhi and Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, marking a pivotal moment in India's freedom movement. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Access all TV channels anywhere, anytime Techno Mag Learn More Undo From colonial rule to independence, Charbagh has silently witnessed countless stories of arrivals, farewells, and reunions.
