Why SR cannot run specials from Kozhikode/ Mangalore to Mysore/ Bangalore?
Why can't SR run a special from Chennai to Kannur via KPD SMVB HAS MAJN?

Two rail projects may have a bearing on electoral prospects of some candidates in Kerala

Two rail projects are impacting the Kerala elections. The SilverLine project, despite initial approval, faces public protests and delays. Meanwhile, the Sabari rail project, planned for decades, is stalled due to funding issues. The State government is hesitant to support it, even though the Railway Board requests their commitment to half...

the cost. The project aims to connect Sabarimala to Vizhinjam, potentially benefiting eastern Kerala. The anti-K-Rail group is campaigning against candidates who support the SilverLine project. The Sabari Action Council will support candidates who advocate for the old Sabari rail project. There's also a new proposal for a rapid rail transit route from Chengannur to Pampa, possibly using elevated structures and tunnels.

Kerala elections mein do rail projects ka impact hai. SilverLine project ko approval to mila tha, lekin public protest aur delays ke wajah se usme delay ho raha hai. Dusri taraf, Sabari rail project jo decades se plan kiya ja raha hai, woh funding issues ki wajah se stuck hai. State...

government usse support karne mein hesitant hai, even though Railway Board ne unse half the cost shoulder karne ke liye commitment maanga hai. Project ka aim Sabarimala ko Vizhinjam se connect karna hai, jisse eastern Kerala ko benefit ho sakta hai. Anti-K-Rail group un candidates ke against campaign kar raha hai jo SilverLine project ko support karte hain. Sabari Action Council un candidates ko support karega jo purane Sabari rail project ke liye advocate karte hain. Ek new proposal bhi hai, Chengannur se Pampa tak rapid rail transit route banane ka, shayad elevated structures aur tunnels ke saath.

ചെങ്ങന്നൂർ - പമ്പ റെയിൽ പദ്ധതിയിൽ തുരങ്കവും; ചെലവ് 8,000 കോടി, ഒറ്റവരിയാണെങ്കിൽ 6,000 കോടി

A report suggests that the cost of constructing the Chengannur-Pamba railway line is estimated at ₹8,000 crores. The line, which will only be operational during the busy Sabarimala pilgrimage season, is recommended to run high-speed trains similar to Vande Bharat Express.

Chengannur aur Pamba ke beech railway line banane ka kharcha ₹8,000 crore hone ka andaza hai. Yeh line sirf busy Sabarimala season mein chalegi aur isme Vande Bharat Express jaise fast train chalane ki salaah di gayi hai.
