A survey for a new 223-km rail line between Jammu and Poonch via Akhnoor and Rajouri was carried out and the project cost was assessed as Rs 22,771 crore but it has low traffic projections, Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said in a written reply in the Rajya Sabha on Friday.
BJP MP Ghulam Ali asked if it has been proposed to the government to establish Jammu–Rajouri-Poonch railway connectivity.
“The work on the new railway line connecting Jammu with Srinagar i.e. Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla Rail Link (USBRL) project (272 km) has been completed. This project covers the districts of Udhampur, Reasi, Ramban, Srinagar, Anantnag, Pulwama, Budgam and Baramulla in Jammu & Kashmir,” Vaishnaw said.
He added, “Survey for new line between Jammu and Poonch via Akhnur and Rajauri (223km) was carried out. The cost of the project was assessed as Rs 22,771 crore. The project has low traffic projections.” According to the minister, sanctioning of railway projects is a continuous and dynamic process. These projects are taken up on the basis of remunerativeness, last mile connectivity, missing links and alternate routes including connectivity to hilly and border areas, augmentation of congested/saturated lines, socio-economic considerations and the likes. And these depend upon liabilities of ongoing projects, overall availability of funds and competing demands, Vaishnaw said

The Indian Railways has initiated final location surveys for five new railway lines in the Kashmir division, aiming to enhance connectivity and economic development in the region. The proposed lines are:

1. Doubling of Baramulla-Banihal Section (135.5 km): This project involves adding a second track to the existing line, improving capacity and efficiency.


2. Baramulla-Uri Line (50 km): Extending the railway from Baramulla to Uri will provide vital connectivity to this border area.


3. Sopore-Kupwara Line (33.7 km): Connecting Sopore to Kupwara aims to facilitate economic growth and accessibility in northern Kashmir.


4. Anantnag-Pahalgam Line (45 km): Linking Anantnag to the tourist destination of Pahalgam is expected to boost tourism and local businesses.


5. Awantipora-Shopian Line (30 km): This line will connect Awantipora to Shopian, enhancing intra-regional connectivity.



These projects are part of a broader strategy to strengthen infrastructure and promote socio-economic development in Jammu and Kashmir.

Additionally, the Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla Rail Link (USBRL) project is nearing completion, with an expected inauguration on January 26, 2025.

This line will connect the Kashmir Valley with the rest of India, featuring engineering marvels like the Chenab Bridge, the world's highest railway bridge.

These developments are poised to transform the transportation landscape of the region, fostering economic growth and improving accessibility.
