Chandigarh : Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh has written to Railway Minister Suresh Prabhu to speedily approve the state government’s proposals for constructing two new broad-gauge links in the state.
In a letter, dated May 31, 2017, to the Union minister, the chief minister requested Prabhu to personally intervene and ensure that the two rail-link proposals – Qadian to Beas and Gharyala to Mallanwala – are speedily decided upon in the interest of the state and its people, an official spokesperson said.
The chief minister said that he had requested Prabhu to expedite the construction of the Qadian-Beas link. He also sought early clearance of the 25-km Gharyala-Mallanwala broad-gauge proposal, which would “give tremendous fillip” to trade and industry in the region by connecting the districts of Amritsar and Ferozepur, said the official.
