Prime Minister Narendra Modi has inaugurated several key rail infrastructure projects aimed at enhancing the rail network's capacity, efficiency, and environmental sustainability in Assam and West Bengal, via video link. In Assam, the doubling of the New Bongaigaon-Sorbhog and Dhupdhara-Chhaygaon rail sections is expected to reduce transit times and foster regional development. Meanwhile, in West Bengal, Modi has flagged off a new DEMU train service between Siliguri and Radhikapur and dedicated multiple electrification projects to the nation. These initiatives, including the electrification of the Barsoi-Radhikapur, Eklakhi-Balurghat, Siliguri-Sivok-Alipurduar-Samuktala Road, and Raninagar-Jalpaiguri-Haldibari rail sections, are part of a broader effort to reduce carbon emissions, decrease dependency on crude oil, and move towards 100% electrification of Indian Railways.
