What's new

Economic state of J&K locals lifted since abrogation of Art 370: Report

Money can root out any separatist tendencies.

Time we settle ex Army guys in kashmir.
Separatist tendencies in kashmir exist since 19th century and early 20th century... time couldnt fix something. What will your money do..
You haven't understood the nature of the people so you are bound to fail.. you try to bring in pandits and indian muslims to break them demographically and one incident makes them run off .Pakistan is literally doing nothing in kashmir Valley ..imagine what could happen if pakistan changes it policy
 
.
Huge number of Indian forces in Kashmir valley and the Indians say it’s all peaceful.

How about remove the forces and see what happens.

Few 100 Kashmiri Pandits had to flee J&K and there is a huge cry. Read up on Jammu massacres in which 50,000 muslims died.
 
. .
We do understand kashmiris very well , when stone pelters are paid 500 Rs per day by their handlers it means that their manufactured protests too are motivated by money.

We never truly settled outsiders ,only pandits who belong to that land are returning.

Since the special nature of that state is revoked all Indians should be settled their, so that it can be completely integrated.

Pakistan has tried everything and has failed at everything apart from one or two incidents their isn't much you guys can do now.
Count the per head Rs150 in video below... lol.. only an idiot would believe this much people would come for money. And now they have quadrupled. They are just looking for a moment to come out .. a madness in making.

People you are trying to settle will eventually become target of ethnic rifts...the consistent law and order issues are having there are of your own making not Pakistan nor a stone pelter .

Lol Pakistan will continue its moral and diplomatic backing and have the kashmir diaspora fund their people back home.. its their job how to drive it.. not pakistans.

Kashmir's 272 Km USBRL Project Is 90 Per Cent Complete
1673952273726.png

USBRL aims to connect the Kashmir region with the rest of the country.

It is the most difficult railroad undertaking by Indian Railways since independence. The project was declared a National Project in March 2002


The 272-km ambitious Udhampur - Srinagar - Baramulla Rail Link (USBRL) project, for the construction of a broad-gauge railway line through the Himalayas is now 90 per cent complete according to the Indian Railways.

It aims to connect the Kashmir region with the rest of the country.

The Katra-Banihal Section's 162.6 km of tunnel mining and 31.3 km of the total 117.7 km track laying, have been finished, according to a tweet from Indian Railways.

Additionally, 11 minor bridges and 21 of the total 26 main bridges were completed.

Three segments of the train line—25 km from Udhampur to Katra, 18 km from Banihal to Qazigund, and 118 km from Qazigund to Baramulla—have been completed.

Work on the intervening 111-km Katra-Banihal section; the most arduous and treacherous portion due to its geology and extensive riverine system, replete with deep gorges, is ongoing.

Train service is available between Jammu-Udhampur-Katra and Baramulla-Banihal in the Kashmir Valley.

The cost of construction of the 111 km long Katra-Banihal section so far has been Rs 30,672.34 crore.

The budget allocation to the project has increased manifold since 2014, enabling speedy construction activity.

In May last year, the General Manager of Northern Railways stated that Kashmir will be connected with the rest of the country through the railway link by the end of 2023, reports Financial Express.

Salient Features of USBRL project

It is the most difficult railroad undertaking by Indian Railways since independence. The project was declared a National Project in March 2002.

Institutions like IIT Delhi, IIT Roorkee, Geographical Survey of India (GSI) and Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) are providing expertise in project planning and implementation.

The alignment contains numerous tunnels and bridges amid the challenging hilly terrain of the Himalayas. More than 200 km long approach road with 320 tiny bridges was built to get to the construction site.

This route will also see the construction of the world's highest railway bridge and India’s first cable-stayed Railway Bridge, i.e Anji Khad bridge. It is coming up at a height of 331 metres above the river bed to connect Katra with Reasi in the Kashmir rail link project.

On the other hand, Chenab Bridge which is the world's highest railway bridge is also part of this project. It is nearing completion.

Once completed, this bridge will loom over the treacherous Chenab, flowing some 359 metres below.

This bridge is 1,315 metres long and is the highest railway bridge in the world, being 359 metres above the river bed level. It will be 35 metres higher than the iconic Eiffel Tower in Paris.

Project Challenges

Inaccessible places

The Young Himalayan Mountains' Complex Geology

From 2008 to 2016, numerous Public Interest Litigations (PIL) in the High Court had a negative impact on the project.

Law and order concerns

Unusual Weather Situations (Rainfall & Snowfall prone area)

The COVID-19 Effect


Significance of the project

After completion, this line will be an all-weather convenient and cost-effective mass transportation system and will act as a catalyst for the overall development of the northernmost alpine region of the country.

This project has great significance for security and socio-economic development. It can play an important role in rapid industrialisation, movement of raw materials and finished products from J&K and encourage trade and tourism in the region, apart from providing opportunities for employment

Next few months are going to be very interesting months for Pakistan , lets revisit this topic after 3 months . tThen you will clearly see the difference between Indian administered kashmir and Pakistan Administered Kashmir .. :)
There will not be any difference in even next few years , it needs at least twenty years planning to change economy of a region .

In 75 years they haven't done anything for them. No major hospitals, connectivity, university, airports etc
