Bhagat Ki Kothi railway station, railway station in Rajasthan, India
Bhagat Ki Kothi is a ground-level railway station in Jodhpur, Rajasthan, featuring three platforms and seven tracks arranged on the surface. The station provides basic amenities including benches, display boards, ticket counters, waiting areas, restrooms, and small shops for passengers.
The station opened in 1972 as part of the North Western Railway network serving the region. It was closed for over 40 years before being reopened in 2006, after which it became an important transportation hub connecting Jodhpur to cities across India.
The station serves as a meeting point where travelers, commuters, and locals from different parts of India come together on a daily basis. Visitors can observe everyday scenes: people sitting on benches, waiting for trains, and vendors moving around offering snacks, chai, or newspapers.
The station is located about 3 kilometers from Jodhpur Junction and is easily accessible by main road. From here, visitors can reach attractions like Mehrangarh Fort or local markets by auto-rickshaw, taxi, or bus, all within a short drive.
The station is known as the arrival point for the Thar Express, a historic train service connecting Jodhpur with Karachi in Pakistan. This cross-border service was restored after the station's reopening and allows travelers from both countries to journey between India and Pakistan.
