Guwahati: Northeast Frontier Railway officials are plotting two fresh rail lines in Assam. The project aims to bridge Shalna to Khumtai and connect Silghat to Tezpur. It is a major infrastructure push.
Ashish Bansal, the general manager of the NFR Construction Wing, arrived at Jakhalabandha to oversee the expansion. He spent the day reviewing the site plans and existing progress. The official visit also covered the ongoing work on a third rail line stretching out from Guwahati.
These links will serve the Kaliabor area in the Nagaon district. The proposed routes are designed to speed up passenger movement and ignite economic activity across the region. After finishing the inspections in Jakhalabandha, Bansal traveled toward Upper Assam to continue his review of the railway works. These developments represent a shift for regional transit, as Bansal noted, "The proposed railway links are expected to improve connectivity in Kaliabor and facilitate passenger movement and economic activities in the region."
