New Delhi: The Indian Railways will start train services on the Banihal-Khari-Sumber-Sangaldan section, a 48.1-km-long significant segment of the country’s most ambitious Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla Rail Link (USBRL) project, on February 20.
“We will get a step closure to realise our dream to connect Srinagar with Kanyakumari,” a source in the railways told PTI.
“The Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla Rail Link (USBRL) project is one of the most ambitious Himalayan railway projects post independence,” he added.
According to sources in the railways, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to inaugurate the section by virtually flagging off a train from Sangaldan.
