Kerala Begins Land Acquisition for Angamaly-Sabarimala Rail Line

Kerala Begins Land Acquisition for Angamaly-Sabarimala Rail Line

The Angamaly-Sabarimala railway line project in Kerala is moving forward with the government starting to acquire land.

This project, which was approved a long time ago, will make it easier for people to travel to the Sabarimala pilgrimage site.

The government has set aside a lot of money for it, but there have been delays because some people don't want to give up their land.

The railway line will be 111 kilometers long and will have 14 stations.

The government and the railway authorities want to finish the project, but some local people are worried about losing their land and the impact on the environment.
