This development marks a major milestone in India’s efforts to enhance regional integration and transportation connectivity in one of the country’s most geographically challenging regions.With this project, Mizoram becomes the fourth northeastern state to have its capital linked by railway.Previously, the railway in Mizoram extended only 1.5 km into the state, terminating at Bairabi in Kolasib district, near the Assam border.
