History

In response to the demands of tea manufacturers of Assam for a railway line with the port of Chittagong, the Assam Bengal Railway started construction of railway lines in eastern Bengal from 1891. Chittagong–Comilla line was opened in 1895. On 1 July 1895, the 150 km Chittagong–Comilla and the 69 km Laksam–Chandpur lines were opened to the public. In 1896, Comilla–Akhaura–Shahbajpur line was established.[3]

In the same year it was opened as a station of Comilla–Akhaura–Shahbajpur line. It became a junction station when the railway line from Akhaura to Tongi was built.[4]
