Indian Railways has completed the electrification of the challenging Sakleshpur-Subramanya Road ghat section, a 55 km stretch known for its steep gradients, tunnels, and bridges. This milestone fully electrifies the Bengaluru-Mangaluru rail route, enabling faster, cleaner travel with trains like the Vande Bharat. The complex project involved extensive engineering, including specialized tunnel electrification and geological studies, overcoming challenges like landslides and difficult terrain.
