Liaquat Pur railway station is a railway station in the southern Punjab. From north it becomes the first railway station in Rahimyarkhan district. The railway station is centered in the city's territory as it divides the city into two parts. The right side of the city is called Kachi Mandi while the opposite is known as Pakki Mandi. The railway line was first planned in 1883 when it was in British India. In 1889 a single line of a normal gauge (5 ft 6 in) was laid. Later it became a two line link and in 1903 a station was built here and was named after this town "Chaudri". After the partition of India and Pakistan in 1947 in 1956 the name was changed to Liaquat Pur in honour of Pakistan's first Prime MinisterLiaquat Ali Khan.
