The South Central Railway Board has reportedly agreed to start construction of Manoharabad-Kottapally new railway line in a phased manner. Karimnagar MP B. Vinod Kumar and the special representatives of TS government in New Delhi S. Venugopala Chary and Ramachandrudu reportedly met Railway Board officials recently in this regard.
Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao had earlier submitted this proposals way back in 2004 and this rail link would now pass through Gajwel (constituency of K. Chandrasekhar Rao), Siddipet (Minister T. Harish Rao’s constituency) and Sircilla (minister KTR’s constituency). It would be offering a direct railway link from Secunderabad en route Manoharabad to Karimnagar city through Gajwel, Siddipet, Vemulavada and then finally reach Kottapally.
This would cover many Medak and Karimnagar districts, which had been earlier uncovered. Sources say that a first such direct link from Hyderabad to Karimnagar will be an alternative for the Hyderabad-Kazipet route. However, it is not sure how long this project is going to take but this is going to be good news for the commuters.
