💨 Abstract

Metroman E Sreedharan announced that the Centre is not supportive of Kerala's ambitious semi-high-speed rail project, SilverLine. Sreedharan proposed an alternative semi-high-speed rail project with lower environmental impact, minimal public resistance, and fewer land acquisition challenges. The state government has acknowledged the potential of this alternative project, but cannot endorse it due to political reasons, as it would require abandoning SilverLine.
