The CRS has completed the inspection of the 44 km Tihi-Dhar section of the Indore-Dahod rail project in Madhya Pradesh.
A 120 kmph speed trial was successfully conducted, and the overall infrastructure was found satisfactory, though minor issues involving bridge drainage and bearings need rectification.
The section includes a 3 km tunnel near Pithampur, featuring ballast-less tracks, ventilation, an emergency escape tunnel and communication facilities.
Train operations will begin only after rectification and final safety clearance; no opening date has been announced.
The Indian Air Force’s IL-76MD heavy-lift transport aircraft successfully landed at Mudh-Nyoma Airfield in Ladakh at an altitude of 13,629 feet (4,154 metres).
The IAF described it as the highest-altitude landing ever achieved by an IL-76MD aircraft anywhere in the world.
India and Nepal are planning a 136 km electrified broad-gauge railway line connecting Raxaul in Bihar with Chobhar near Kathmandu.
The project is expected to cost over ₹40,000 crore (based on later reported estimates) and will include approximately 42 km of tunnels and 124 major bridges due to the difficult Himalayan foothill terrain.
The project has not yet received final construction approval. Funding arrangements, project cost, gauge compatibility and land acquisition remain major challenges.

PM Modi inaugurated Pune’s 23 km Metro Line 3 (Pink Line), connecting Maan in Hinjewadi to District Court via 23 stations.
Built at a cost of over ₹8,300 crore, the line will improve connectivity to Pune’s IT hub. He also laid the foundation stones for 4 new Phase-II metro corridors.
The wider Phase-II expansion, estimated at ₹21,800 crore, is expected to increase Pune’s metro network to around 120 km and extend connectivity towards the proposed Purandar Airport.

India is planning a 489 km Bilaspur-Manali-Leh railway line at an estimated cost of ₹1.31 lakh crore, featuring a proposed railway station at Tengla near Tanglang La at an altitude of 17,582 feet. It could become the world’s highest railway station, surpassing China’s Tanggula station.
More than 270 km of the route will pass through tunnels, with 62 tunnels, 116 bridges and India’s first underground railway station at Keylong.
The project has strategic importance for military logistics and all-weather connectivity to Ladakh. Surveys and the DPR are complete, but formal construction approval is still pending.
