Chenab and Anji Khad Bridges Enhance Rail Connectivity Boosting Kashmir Trade
The Chenab Rail Bridge and Anji Khad Bridge, key engineering feats on the 272-km Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla Rail Link, have enhanced all-weather rail connectivity between Kashmir and the rest of India. Overcoming challenging terrain in the Pir Panjal range, these bridges enable faster transportation of Kashmiri products like apples, cherries, dry fruits, and handicrafts to major markets. The rail link also facilitates the movement of essential goods and passenger travel, improving trade and accessibility in the region.
