consequences. The NGOs suggest utilizing existing railway infrastructure with signal automation and track doubling, minimizing the need for tree felling. They emphasize the importance of a clear compensatory plantation strategy, including species and locations, to maintain ecological balance. The NGOs also stressed the need for strict compliance with the Karnataka Tree Preservation Act, 1976. The BSRP, spanning 148.17 km and featuring 58 stations, is scheduled for completion by 2028.

See there are two ways of looking at this news... one way from their angle is that they're environmentalists and u know abt them... saving Earth in many ways by planting many trees for the benefit of our own Mother Earth.... looking at the other way from our angle... we need to sacrifice cutting down trees for the benefit of traffic reduction, thereby having clearance for M/E and above type of trains for seamless travel, provided they have acres of places for planting trees like how Namma Metro r doing for construction of metros but planting at different areas..... so I can't really comment/debate on this....🤔👍

One section is going on "ok" progress... i.e. BNC-WFD section wherein, they're installing high OHEs in selected areas, like btw BNC and BNCE and post BNCE in some areas.... and btw BNC and BNCE, I'd say half distance has been completed with track and high OHE installation.... remaining is going on but a little slow pace.... post BNCE, land alignment is going on with few sections of pillars getting installed and getting ready to change from single pillars to the high OHE pillars (probably they might have a block for that and divert some trains via SMVT YPR and head towards SBC).... so this is the update as of now..... BangaloreMail sir and SWRailway sir, pls do correct me incase I made a mistake in the update....👍👍👍
