The alignment of the Mysuru-Nanjangud-Chamarajanagar railway track section may be realigned near the airport.
This is to overcome the impasse over the refusal of the Airport Authority of India to give clearance to Railways to draw overhead power cables.
Though the entire 60 km stretch from Mysuru-Nanjangud-Chamarajanagar has been electrified, a small stretch of nearly 100 metres has been held up as the track skirts the approach of the Mysuru airport runway.
