This follows the Commission of Railway Safety (CRS) inspecting the 17 km Katra-Reasi stretch of the 65 km Katra-Sangaldan section of the Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla Rail Link on January 5, 2025.
This is a vital link connecting Kashmir to the rest of the country. PM Narendra Modi is likely to dedicate it to the nation on January 26. "Of the 65 km long Katra-Sangaldan, the Reasi-Sangaldan part, including Reasi Station has been completed. Only a 17 km stretch between Katra and Sangaldan, which has the iconic Anji Khad bridge is pending CRS inspection. All of them together will be inaugurated together by the PM," said K Sainath Reddy, executive engineer of Konkan Railway at Reasi Station.
