Stalin asks union minister to allocate adequate funds for new lines, doubling work, amenities

Budgetary cut of ₹674 crore will cripple TN railway projects: CM

FOUR days after TNIE reported that the railways' Pink Book showed nearly 70% of funds allocated for new railway line projects in Tamil Nadu in the interim budget were slashed in the regular budget for the current year, Chief Minister MK Stalin wrote to Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw on Monday, urging the allocation of adequate funds for new lines, doubling projects, and various passenger amenities projects in the state.

In his letter, Stalin noted that the funds for Southern Railway in the regular 2024-25 budget were reduced from ₹976.1 crore to ₹301.3 crore compared to the interim budget. He also mentioned that the allocation for doubling projects was cut from ₹2214.4 crore to ₹1928.8 crore.
