'''Bondamunda''' is a part of city of [[Rourkela]], India, and a municipality.<br />
<br />
==Railway developments==<br />
[[Bondamunda railway station]] (IR Station code:BNDM) is a railway station under [[Chakradharpur]] division of [[South Eastern Railway zone]] of Indian Railways. It is a station on the [[Tatanagar–Bilaspur section]] of [[Howrah–Nagpur–Mumbai line]].<br />
<br />
It connects [[Sini, Jharkhand|Sini]] and Chakardharpur on east direction, [[Ranchi Junction|Ranchi]], [[Hatia]] on north direction, [[Jharsuguda railway station|Jharsuguda]] on south direction and [[Barsuan]] and [[Bimlagarh]] on south direction.<br />
<br />
Asia's second largest railway yard is located here. The yard was constructed to feed the raw material and finished product requirements of [[Rourkela Steel Plant]], established in collaboration with Germany. Exchange Yard was constructed for exchange of railway wagons between Rourkela Steel Plant and Indian Railways. Three more yards were constructed: Reception Yard, Classification Yard and Departure Yard for sorting out railway wagons according to the destination. This was the chief marshaling yard of Chakradharpur Division. After the introduction of block-rake concept in Indian Railways, the marshaling yards lost their function. So Reception Yard was shut down and Classification Yard is now used as a stabling yard.<br />
<br />
