1st trial train reaches Reasi in Jammu and Kashmir via highest rail bridge

IndiaTimes 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.

Indian Army Chief Lands In Kashmir After Pahalgam Terror Kills 26, What’s Next For Pakistan?

After the brutal terror attack in Pahalgam that left 26 civilians dead, Chief of Army Staff General Upendra Dwivedi landed in Srinagar to assess the situation. With tensions escalating along the LoC and the Pakistan Army violating the ceasefire, India has retaliated diplomatically—shutting the Attari ICP, expelling Pakistani defence officials, and suspending visa agreements. As search ops continue, the Centre faces growing pressure from citizens demanding stricter action. The attack occurred while global leaders were visiting India, adding geopolitical weight to the unfolding crisis. #PahalgamAttack #ArmyChiefInKashmir #IndiaPakistanTensions #LOCViolation #UpendraDwivedi #PahalgamTerror #JDVanceIndia #ModiSaudiVisit #KashmirSecurity #IndianArmy #SAARCVisaBan #ICPClosed #PakistanCeasefireBreach #DiplomaticTension #ProtestsErupt #TerrorInPahalgam #TouristAttack #BaisaranValley #MilitaryAlert #VikramMisri
