The Southern part of Odisha is not as densely rail-networked as Rest of India. It is one of the most neglected part of India. If it is meticulously connected from Brahmapur to Raipur via Titlagarh then it can serve to make great inroads into Central India for carriage of goods and passengers, a ventilating access from Central India Region to the Bay Of Bengal, (harbour - Gopalpur Port) and a useful link across the country to the Arabian Sea.
