Southern Railway said on Thursday it will provide full funding for 55 critical railway covers (ROBs) in Kerala, given the state’s inability to bear the share of costs.
“The railway’s remote decision to 100% 55 snatch funding is unprecedented and demonstrates its strong commitment to public safety and seamless transport in Kerala,” said Southern Railway in a statement here.
According to the model of standard cost distribution, a 50% cost-sharing foundation was approved in Kerala with a total of 126 robberies to replace the busy roads. However, the state government was unable to fund its agreed share, resulting in delays in the construction of these projects.
Among these 55 robberies, the Kerala government can only complete the planning and handling land acquisitions, with only 18 people. The robberies have been re-approved by the railway company and have been approved for 100% of the funds and funds for Rs 95 crore.
Southern Railways said there have been 65 types of robbery over the years due to the lack of funds from the state government or due to the non-approval of the plan, as well as Road and Bridge Development Corporation (RBDCK) in Kerala (RBDCK).
