Mughalsarai is a town and a municipal board in the Chandauli district of Uttar Pradesh. Located around 38 kilometres (24 mi) from Varanasi, it is an important railway junction in Uttar Pradesh.[1][2] It is the site of the Mughalsarai Junction railway station.

Its importance as a railway junction can well be understood by the fact that more than 50 passenger trains and over 150 goods trains pass through it within 24 hours. The amount of coal passing through mughalsarai was about 39,000 tons daily in 1960 and the wagons carrying coal from this end to other stations numbered 1,729 per day.
