Sikkim Set for Its First Railway Connectivity Extending to China Border
In an infrastructural push by the Indian government, the northeastern state of Sikkim is all set to get its first railway line. Highlighted in our show 'Five Live', the Sivak-Rangpho rail project is crucial for enhanced defence security at the Sikkim-China border. Developing all the way to Nathula, a strategic border point, this rail network will facilitate easy movement of troops and materials. Despite weather-related delays, launch is expected in 2025. This report from our correspondents Milan Sharma and Pawan Kumar gives an insightful perspective. #SikkimRailConnectivity #SivakRangphoProject #NortheastConnectivity #IndiaChinaBorder

Why was Sikkim being ignored by previous Govts? Since 1975 Sikkim is part of India & it gets 1st Railways only this year ? It got its first Airport also just 3-4 years back .
Maybe due to terrain but not sure
Maybe of MOU with China 🇨🇳

We are waiting
The report does not says the expected start date of the first segment. Or did I missed it.
only BJP can
60 years one party ruled this nation and sikkim dint even get a rail line. No wonder why bjp sweeps north east.
Actually 45 years so get your facts right .
జై హో మోడీ
No, Sikkim Chaina border, Sikkim sharing border with Tibet.
Advantage improvement in faster economy growth, tourism and disadvantage exploitation of nature which might cause more natural disaster in future
Sad thing Congress didn't look at NE part of India
Till Rangpo it makes sense, but till Nathula??? 😮how??
That's what I was thinking
*Coming to Northeast* Today because of Narendra Modi One of the oldest Separatist group of Manipur UNLF has now droped their guns and signed peace aggrememt And this is not the first time Militancy is on the Lowest under BJP govt in Northeastern India In last 9 years 7000+ separatists have surrendered and now many of them are working for Nations Interest *Look at the rapid Infrastructure and Roads being made in Northeast :-* - Nagaland got its 1st Medical College in 2023 - Sikkim where there was not a single railway station now 3 railway station is under construction and almost completed - Same with Nagaland Nagaland got it's 2nd Railway Station after 100years - Nagaland Got it's FIRST Medical College in 2023, 60 years after Attaining Statehood - Arunachal Pradesh got it's Airport - You can ask these to anyone from Northeast
Mobility in the difficult terrain in Sikkim State make life strenuous and arduous. Changing geo-political situation near LAC makes the government to engage in constructing connectivity infrastructure in order to make mobility easier both for civilian and defence service people,thanks to China. There is no reason to credit politicians.
Indian people can railway station sikkim hills like British lets see
49 Yearssss?????🙄
Should have been done long ago
మోడీ హి తో ముంకిన్ !
Sikkim is the hub of natural calamities due to all these kinds of developmental project . Dams and hydro power had already damaged Sikkim .. this is a worrying situation for the people of Sikkim .. in the name of national security.. this will bring more damage to bio diversity of the place and the locals will face the consequences..
Shut the Fk up.... Too much environmental drama
What do you want? Do you think railways is nor important in sikkim? Why do sikkim people lack railways when rest of India has railways? Railways is a basic need
Modi= Development 👍
BJP IS VISIONARY FOR OUR NATION
RAGA AS USUAL WILL CONDEMN IT IN LONDON AS HE CAN NOT SPEAK IN INDIA.
Jo kuch ho rha desh ma phli baat ho rha . About godi media
I vote 🗳️ BjpModiji💪💪💪💪
People are praising bjp while the project was started in congress rule 🤣🤣
L+ratio. This project was started and completed by bjp. Airport though started by Congress was only done on papers and it never received funds. Finally in 2020 bjp completed it . Say congress even funded the project in beginning but it's corrupt minister filled their pocket out of it.
Project was started in papers only not in land
Idiot😂, just passing a project and actually fulfilling it don't u know there's a difference in both
DFC also started in 2006 in Congress time. How many trains used DFC before 2014. NPCI started before 2014 in Congress time. How much transactions you have done using UPI before 2014.
All the ideas including Swachh Bharat, GST & Aadhar are ideas of the Congress which have been hijacked by present Govt. Mera Bharat Mahaan .
Rangpo is at border with Bengal
It is because of BJP vision towards Noeth East policy under Modiji
congress ne sirf khaya itne saal
