17.62 Kms rail line stretch has already been completed between Talcher and Sunakhani. 16.31 Kms stretch between Sunakhani-Samal-Parabil will be completed shortly. The delay in acquisition of land & presence of many land related disputes and court cases were causing slow pace of execution of work which is now vacated and the construction work will be now speeded up after getting clear from land issues.
Sharma also inspected the Railway Sidings at Talcher for better traffic movements and also to provide benefit to the stakeholders and industries. Reviewing the traffic facility works, General Manager instructed concerned officials to ensure facilities for hassle free traffic movements in this area.
