Third Line to Commence After ‘OK’ Report
The Sandalpur-Sithauli route between Jhansi and Dholpur had been pending for a considerable time. Following this inspection, the third line is expected to become operational within a day or two upon receiving the ‘OK’ report. The work from Dholpur to Mathura has been completed by the Agra division. Currently, rail traffic is disrupted during accidents or emergencies. However, the third line will allow trains to be diverted, ensuring uninterrupted traffic flow.
