Almost seven months after approval from the Railways Ministry and also the sanctioning of the budget, around 64-km long Karnal-Yamunanagar railway line project is hanging fire.
Sources said the process for the identification of the land and acquisition had not started yet. To provide the shortest link between these two cities and to reduce the travel time for the passengers and freight traffic, Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar had kept a provision of laying railway lines between Karnal and Yamunanagar in his budget speech on February 28, 2020, for which residents have been waiting since 1998.
