Description

Description

The Railways have decided to resume work on the long-pending 40 km Qadian-Beas rail line, which was previously frozen due to alignment challenges, land acquisition hurdles, and local political complications. The project was originally sanctioned in 1929 and partially completed before being shelved. It was included as a socially desirable project in the 2010 Railway Budget but stalled due to financial concerns. The project is now defrozen and construction is set to restart to boost the industrial units of Batala.
