Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw on Wednesday made it clear in Parliament that the detailed project report (DPR) submitted by the Kerala Rail Development Corporation Limited (KRDCL) lacks sufficient details for the technical feasibility of the project. Despite being asked to to furnish the full details required to arrive at a conclusion, the KRDCL has not submitted these, said Mr. Vaishnaw.
The KRDCL was asked to provide detailed technical documents such as alignment plan, particulars of railway land and private land, crossings over existing network, duly depicting affected railway assets after site verification for the detailed examination of the project. However, the joint venture company of Kerala and the Union Ministry of Railways is yet to submit the details sought by the Railways, said Mr. Vaishnaw in a written reply in Parliament.
