The Indian Railways has begun to install rail lines at No Man’s Land between Nilphamari’s Chilahati and Jalpaiguri’s Haldibari, promoting connectivity between Bangladesh and India with these two passenger train routes.

On a field visit on Monday morning, the barbed wire fences separating the two countries were seen cut by Indian Railways’ officials with Border Security Force of India (BSF) and Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) present.

Lt Col Md Mamunur Rashid of BGB-56 camp confirmed the matter.

Chief of Public Relations for North-East Indian Railways, Suvananda Chandra said: “We are installing the rail lines to establish an easier connectivity between the two countries on train routes.”

“We hope to finish the installation by September 30,” added the officer.
