The final phase of the construction of the Nashipur rail bridge in Murshidabad will commence in November this year, more than four years after it was stalled for the second time owing to a land dispute.
The project was stalled after local landowners had refused to part with seven acres on the west bank of the Bhagirathi river.
The 785m-long bridge, which was initially sanctioned in 2000 by then railway minister Mamata Banerjee, connects Azimganj railway station on the west bank of the river with Murshidabad station on the east.
