Decision to merge KRCL with Indian Railways only after Maharashtra polls, says Somanna

The Minister of State for Railways, V. Somanna, announced that the merger of Konkan Railway Corporation Limited (KRCL) with Indian Railways is being reconsidered and a decision will be made after the Maharashtra Assembly elections. Earlier, the proposal faced opposition in Maharashtra. The minister also reviewed various railway projects, including new...

lines and doubling projects, and directed officials to complete them by June 2027. He emphasized that the State government's cost-sharing for railway projects appears unlikely and land acquisition is the primary requirement. The Hubballi-Ankola railway line project is expected to gain momentum after the Maharashtra elections, and the land acquisition for the Dharwad-Kittur-Belagavi railway line will be completed by December. He also addressed concerns regarding a connecting railway line for goods transport at the APMC Yard in Hubballi and employment opportunities for families who gave up their land for railway projects. Finally, he assured the MLA of addressing the timing concerns for the Vande Bharat Express between Hubballi-Dharwad and Bengaluru.

Railway Minister V. Somanna ne announce kiya hai ki Konkan Railway Corporation Limited (KRCL) ko Indian Railways mein merge karne ka proposal fir se reconsider kiya ja raha hai aur Maharashtra Assembly elections ke baad ispe final decision liya jaayega.

tha. Minister ne bahut saare railway projects ka review bhi kiya hai, jismein new lines aur doubling projects shamil hain, aur unhone officials ko June 2027 tak yeh projects complete karne ka order diya hai. Unhone yeh bhi bataya ki State government ka railway projects mein cost share karna abhi mushkil lag raha hai aur land acquisition hi abhi zaroori hai. Hubballi-Ankola railway line project Maharashtra elections ke baad tez hone ki ummeed hai, aur Dharwad-Kittur-Belagavi railway line ke liye land acquisition December tak complete ho jaayega. Unhone APMC Yard, Hubballi mein goods transport ke liye connecting railway line ki zarurat aur railway projects ke liye apni zameen dene wale parivaaron ke liye employment opportunities ke baare mein bhi bataya. Aakhir mein, unhone MLA ko Hubballi-Dharwad aur Bengaluru ke beech Vande Bharat Express ke timings ke baare mein unki chintaon ko address karne ka bharosa dilaya.
