Harish Nagar Halt railway station is a halt railway station of the Kolkata Suburban Railway system and operated by Eastern Railway. It is situated beside BSF Road at Harish Nagar on the Ranaghat–Gede line in Nadia district in the Indian state of West Bengal.[1][2]

History

The Ranaghat–Gede section was the part of the Eastern Bengal Railway which was opened in 1862 and extended to Kushtia, now in Bangladesh. This was the Calcutta–Siliguri main line but after Partition of India in 1947, this got truncated and what remained India named the Gede Branch Line.[3] The line including Harish Nagar Halt railway station was electrified in 1997–98.[4]
