Plans to integrate metro and suburban Railways in Bengaluru
Indian Railways plans to electrify the entire railway network in Karnataka by 2023. “All trains passing through Karnataka will only run on electric traction by 2023, which will reduce pollution,” said Railways Minister Piyush Goyal.
While launching key railway projects via video conferencing on Sunday, Goyal said: “Today, I am missing my colleague & friend Shri Suresh Angadi ji who would have otherwise been launching these projects. I pay my tribute to Suresh Angadi ji for the exemplary work he has done for Railways & the State of Karnataka.”
Railways in the last six years has electrified a track length of 792 km, which is 17 times more than was electrified from 2009-2014. Also, about 70 new Road Over Bridges (RoBs) and 160 Road Under Bridges (RuBs) have been sanctioned in Karnataka since 2014.
