The platforms are not well sheltered. It lacks many facilities including water and sanitation.[1][2] The station is situated on the 1,000 mm (3 ft 3+38 in) metre gauge Akola–Ratlam rail line, which is the under gauge conversion. Once finished will provide vital connectivity between Indore with rest of Northern India.
