DEMAND FOR EARLY COMPLETION OF CUDDAPAH-BANGALORE RAILWAY LINE
The Cuddapah- Bangalore new railway line is one of the South Central Railway's largest projects and the foundation stone for the project has been laid at the Cuddapah Railway Station. The new line will reduce the distance considerably between Cuddapah and Bangalore. It has the potential to boost the economy and generate employment in the region. The Cuddapah-Bangalore railway line once completed will shorten the distance by 226 kms. as compared to the route via Renigunta and will also provide a shorter alternative route between north India and Bangalore.
The project involves an investment of Rs. 2,000 crores, which the Central Government and the States of Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka have agree to bear on a 50:50 basis.
In view of the benefits that are likely to accrue to the people of the region and the economy from the new railway line between Cuddapah and Bangalore, I urge upon the hon. Minister of Railways to take interest in the railway line and ensure that the line is completed at the earliest. Thank you.
