The station is connected with Dr. Ambedkar Nagar Railway Station (MHOW) to the north west and Sanawad to the south-east on the Dr. Ambedkar Nagar (MHOW) - Sanawad Meter Gauge Railline.

The station is well-connected to Indore Jn. via Dr. Ambedkar Nagar, MHOW.

At present, the station is on non-electrified rail route.

The conversion of Dr. Ambedkar Nagar Railway Station (MHOW) to Sanawad (meter-gauge) to (broad-gauge) rail line is in progress.^[3] Upon completion, It would directly connect Indore to Mumbai.^[4]

However, the Kalakund station would be bypassed in the gauge conversion process.^[5]
