Modi Ji’s Kashmir Visit Postponed!
Arey yaar, bad news hai! PM Narendra Modi’s visit to Jammu and Kashmir on April 19, 2025 ko postpone ho gaya hai. Kyunki weather kharab hone wala hai. Modi ji ko Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla Rail Link (USBRL) ka final leg inaugurate karna tha. Sath hi, Vande Bharat Express from Katra to Srinagar bhi shuru honi thi.
Kya Reason Hai?
Ministry of Railways ne X pe bataya ki “Postponement news – due to adverse weather forecast inauguration program of USBRL is postponed for a few days. Next date will be informed when decided.” Matlab, mausam ki wajah se kuch din rukna padega.
USBRL Project: A Big Deal!
Yeh USBRL project bahut bada hai, guys! Duniya ka sabse uncha railway bridge, Chenab River pe, 359 m ki height pe bana hai. Socho, Eiffel Tower se bhi uncha! Is project ki shuruwat 1997 mein hui thi, but kaafi challenges aaye, terrain tough tha. Kashmir valley ko directly rail network se connect karega yeh stretch. Ismein 38 tunnels, 927 bridges, aur iconic Chenab Railway Bridge hai. Northern Railway ne pichle do mahino mein kai trial runs bhi kiye hain Jammu aur Srinagar ke beech.
Chenab Bridge: Engineering Ka Kamaal!
Chenab river ke upar bana yeh steel arch bridge, Indian Railways ke history mein ek bada achievement hai. Yeh bridge Bakkal aur Kauri ke beech train services shuru karega, Reasi district mein. Katra se Banihal ke liye bhi important link hai. Ab tak, Kashmir valley mein rail connectivity sirf Sangaldan-Baramulla section tak thi.
So, What’s Next?
Abhi naya date announce nahi hua hai. Jaise hi pata chalega, we’ll update you. Stay tuned for the latest updates!
