/news/post/136838The full sector is Hospet-Gunda Road-Kottur-Harihar.
Hospet-Gunda Road-Kottur is the existing line where Goods Ply b/n Hospet n Gunda Road. Due to the steep Gradient, it was open for Passenger Traffic. Now Kottur-Harihar New line is cleared. My concern is whether the Steep Gradient b/n is cleared or not?
