SRINAGAR — After remaining suspended since August 2019 (barring few days before the outbreak of COVID-19), the railway services from Baramulla to Banihal are all set to resume “partially” from February 22 onwards in Kashmir, officials said on Wednesday.
The officials said that Chief Area Manager Northern Railway Srinagar has written a communication to SSP/GRP/Srinagar, clearly mentioning that the train services are to be partially restored in Banihal-Baramulla section from February 22.
The Chief Area Manager is learnt to have sought comments from the SSP if his office has any objections in restarting the passenger services between Banihal-Baramulla section. The response has been sought on urgent basis, they added.
The decision for the resumption of the train services comes after Divisional Commissioner Kashmir, Pandurang K Pole, wrote a letter to railway officials earlier this month.
