Ministry of Railways convened a high level meeting to discuss two long-pending rail connectivity projects between India and Nepal. The 18.6 km long Jogbani-Biratnagar (17.65 km) rail link connecting Bihar and Biratnagar in Nepal, likely to be completed by 2016, was sanctioned in 2010-11, but delay in land acquisition has impeded progress of the project. The second project connecting Jaynagar (Bihar) to Bardibas (Nepal) and extension to Bardibas, covering 68 km at a cost of Rs 470 crore, has been pending for over five years for various reasons.
