The landslides in Assam have caused significant disruptions to train services in the region, affecting not only passengers but also the transportation of essential goods and commodities to Tripura. The Tripura government is taking proactive steps to ensure that there is no shortage of fuel or other essential items in the state.
The damage to the railway track between New Haflong and Jatinga Lampur has been a major concern, with boulders and debris blocking the route. The NFR is working diligently to clear the debris and restore railway operations as quickly as possible.
In response to the situation, the Tripura government has scheduled a high-level meeting to assess the availability of essential supplies and coordinate with the NFR to address the issue. The authorities are closely monitoring the situation and are committed to ensuring that the people of Tripura do not face any shortages or inconvenience.
The cancellation of several train services, including the Agartala-Bengaluru Express and the Kanchanjungha Express, has further compounded the transportation challenges in the region. The NFR is working to minimize disruptions and resume normal operations as soon as possible.
The landslides in Assam serve as a reminder of the vulnerability of the region to natural disasters and the importance of maintaining robust infrastructure to mitigate the impact on transportation and supply chains. The Tripura government is taking a proactive approach to address the current situation and ensure the well-being of its residents.
