Q:Hi guys, I read something about an imminent railway project that would directly connect Mysore and Varanasi. What's the juice on this one? ANyone knows?
Latest Answer: Yes. Supposedly there are two trains released for this initiative. While one tran leaves on Tuesday, the other leaves on Thursday reaching the final destination in Varanasi on Thursday and Saturday respectively which is great as there are a lot of retired people around here in Mysore and their journey has been shortened.
Latest Answer: Fact is that the project needs more land at Srirangapatna. So now the deputy commissioners have been instructed to finish the land acquisition process asap, so that the whole thing can be done by March 2015. Actually the problem is that the new Land Acquisition Act is causing some delays in the whole land acquisition process. Railway minister suggested that the commissioner should buy the land and hand it over to the railways.
