Nagari-Tindivanam railway link faces funding hurdles
The New Indian Express Dharmapuri
|January 27, 2025
Project stalled since 2008; of the ₹3,631 cr estimate, ₹825 cr spent already
TWO months ago, Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw informed Parliament that delays in new line projects in Tamil Nadu were primarily due to land acquisition issues. However, 90% of the land required for the 184.45 km Nagari-Tindivanam new line project has been acquired, and work is now progressing on the remaining 10%.
This long-delayed project, which has been stalled since 2008, has prompted rail passengers to call for higher funding in the upcoming budget to speed up its completion.
The Nagari-Tindivanam new line will connect rural villages in Ranipet, Vellore, Thiruvallur, Tiruvannamalai, and Villupuram districts in Tamil Nadu, as well as Chittoor district in Andhra Pradesh. It will link the Chennai-Katpadi line at Walajah, the Chennai-Renigunta line at Nagari, and the Chennai-Villupuram section at Tindivanam, enhancing connectivity.
