AP Funding Delays Hamper Railway Line Construction

Building a new railway line between Nadikudi and Srikalahasti has been slow because the government hasn't paid for the land needed.

This has made the project much more expensive than planned.

The government was supposed to give land for free and pay half the cost, but they haven't paid their share on time.

The project, which started over a decade ago, is important because it will help connect different areas, ease traffic on existing lines, and provide a new route in case of problems like cyclones.

Some sections of the railway are already working.
