Indian Railways Se Kashmir Tak Foodgrain Supply Hui Strong
Thursday ko foodgrains (rice) ka pehla full rake Anantnag pahunch gaya, jo Kashmir mein freight movement ke liye ek badi achievement hai. Yeh development region mein all-weather rail connectivity ki strength ko clearly dikhata hai.
Ek official statement mein spokesperson ne bataya ki apni tarah ke pehle case mein, Food Corporation of India (FCI) ke saath continuous coordination ke baad—taaki logistics cost kam ki ja sake—42 wagons ka full railway rake, jisme 2,768 metric tonnes chawal tha, rail ke zariye Anantnag goods shed tak safely pahunchaya gaya.
Isse pehle sirf mini rakes bheje jaate the, jisme 21 wagons hote the aur lagbhag 1,384 metric tonnes foodgrains carry kiye jaate the.
Is baar full rake ko 21 January ko Punjab ke Sangrur rail terminal par load kiya gaya aur 24 ghante ke andar Anantnag pahunch gaya.
Ek din pehle kharab weather conditions ke bawajood—jiski wajah se unloading thodi disturb hui—rake ko successfully handle kar liya gaya. Isse Kashmir ke foodgrain supply chain aur distribution network ko kaafi boost mila hai.
Yeh achievement Kashmir mein foodgrain distribution system ko strong banane ki ek important shuruaat hai. Mini rakes aur road-based transport se shift hokar full-capacity railway wagons use karne se:
- Total logistics aur freight cost kam hogi
- Essential commodities ki movement fast aur zyada reliable hogi
Isse khas taur par harsh weather ke time adequate buffer stock maintain karne mein madad milegi aur local families ke liye foodgrain availability better hogi.
National highways par heavy truck traffic par dependency kam hone se environmental benefits bhi milenge aur overall efficiency improve hogi.
Apples, cement, fertilisers aur ab foodgrains ki successful rail movement ke baad, rail-based logistics Kashmir mein continuous economic activity, resilience aur long-term supply chain stability ko support kar rahi hai.
Yeh saare developments Udhampur–Srinagar–Baramulla Rail Link (USBRL) ke transformative impact ko highlight karte hain, jo independent India ke sabse ambitious railway engineering projects mein se ek hai.
Kashmir mein snowfall aur tough winter conditions ke bawajood, improved rail connectivity trade aur logistics ko strong bana rahi hai—aur farmers, traders aur households ko essential goods tak zyada reliable access dekar directly benefit pahunch rahi hai.
