Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha has written a letter to Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw and sought his intervention to speed up the ongoing railway restoration works in Assam.
Due to the ongoing repair works in certain parts of Assam, the movement trains carrying fuel and other essentials are disrupted which has led to a crisis of oil in the state. A press statement from the Chief Minister's office said that Chief Minister Saha had been monitoring the situation closely. He had also assured the people of Tripura that within a couple of days, the situation would stumble back to normalcy. Chief Public Relations Officer (CPRO) Sabyasachi Dey spoke on the issue and told ANI, "Track settlement works are underway between Jatinga Lampur and Harangajao stations. The movement of passenger trains is going on without any hassle." "We are making all efforts to make sure that the passenger train movement keeps going. The restoration works largely depend on weather so we hope things will soon be normal," he said. According to sources, the railway tracks in the area were damaged because of heavy rainfall. (ANI)
