GOOD LUCK WITH THAT......but if the Naga resilience had to accept Indian sovereignty, Kashmiris have far lesser chance of actually succeeding.
i believe Kashmir is for the kashmiris. GoI should realize that and do whatever possible to uplift them.

Will the Kashmiris be grateful for this?

Why should anyone be grateful for what their Govt does ?

Questions like these serve to increase a divide attemting to be created. Were the people of TN grateful for any of the development work done by the central Govt ?

The Govt is doing its job i.e.to facilitate interaction & commerce within the nation.

I wish such issues were not brought up on a good thread like this where the amazing work done is being showcased.

One track with shoddy looking tunnel and so much hype.

60 + years and we are still connecting Kashmir to rest of the country. From Jallandhar to Jammu (initiated by Atal Bihari Vajpayee) it took them 12 years and counting to make two lane road both ways. Same is the fate of Rohtang tunnel connecting Manali with Lahul Sapiti; again initiated by Atal Bihari Vajpayee; Such a great visionary and doer he was. The same man invested in increasing strategic oil reserves and purposed connecting all the rivers.

This has become a picture of fraud and frustration seeing India putting snail pace mediocre infrastructure for its people especially those who are needed for strategic reasons.

Get a life. If you do not know the complexity of the Pir Panjal tunnel project, then shut it. It was probably the toughest rail way laid by India, even harder than Konkan railway. It got delayed for engineering reasons and for concerns of local population regarding the alignment.
These are projects of national importance. Partisan bias does not come into picture.

Your signature line "Islam first then home land" tells a lot about ur Identity. After reading that I was not surprised with what you said.

Oh your congress-I nerve is pinched. I am sorry for that.

When after a massive calamity thousands of Red wood trees got destroyed. The officer in charge of that region ordered its people working under him to start red wood tree plantation next month. He was told that these trees take 10s of years to grow and the one who have been destroyed were thousands of years old. He ordered his people to start plantation from next day.

The point is it should have been started earlier, not how difficult it is. The same Pir panjal has JL Nehru tunnel which was built many decades ago.
