1st trial train reaches Reasi in Jammu and Kashmir via highest rail bridge
Sunday, 16 June 2024 Indian Railways operated the first trial train from Sangaldan to Reasi, including on the world's highest rail bridge built on Chenab river in J&K, on Sunday. With this rail link, travel between the Valley and the rest of the country is set to become a reality in the next 4-5 months, officials said. Reasi was recently in the news because of a terror attack that claimed nine lives. The railways also achieved this feat days before PM Narendra Modi visits Srinagar to celebrate International Yoga Day.
