this is history

Let me tell you, in the year 1905, the then Maharaja of Kashmir had announced the laying of a railway line connecting Srinagar to Jammu via the Mughal road. After the initial work, the project got stuck. After that once again the work was started in March 1995 at a cost of Rs 2500 crores and then in the year 2002 Vajpayee government declared it a national project, then its cost became Rs 6000 crores. However, today the cost of this project has reached Rs 27,949 crore. The laying of the line was fraught with geographical problems. Overcoming all these, now this network has reached towards being ready. This project is running after a delay of 20 years.
