- The Chenab Rail Bridge will be the world’s tallest railway arch bridge once completed. After being in construction for decades, this bridge in the northern state of Jammu and Kashmir will open to visitors by the end of 2023 or in early 2024.
About 35m (114ft) higher than the Eiffel Tower and spanning 359m (1,178ft) above the Chenab river bed in the Himalayas, it is supposed to surpass the record of the Beipan River Shuibai railway bridge in China.

After 370 this project speeded up a lot ..definetly kashmirs local government is very corrupt
All governments in India are corrupt! It's part of the culture and accepted by an apathetic public who seek to blame the Mughals and British for all of their current problems!
It is already completed
You are very slow bbc 😂😂
This a dirty trick of Modi ji doing too much development for vote !! Not fair
very old not 5hrs ago. bbc downhilllllll, congrats
Great, so only took India 75 years to pull its finger out and finally built some decent infrastructure in Kashmir! No wonder the Kashmiris don't want India running the place, they've been neglected for most of the past seven decades, and the only reason to now build a faster rail connection is to try and save some face, and because China is in the neighbourhood. Why is Indian culture/society so reactive, and not proactive?
When you don't have knowledge it is better to not comment ...every project requires feasibility studies investment and local support......
Autocratic countries like china can easily do this because they have complete control over there people ..on their intellect and everything else
@@priyanshusharma353 What "knowledge" don't I have? "Feasibility studies" don't take decades, it's just that India has to accommodate corruption, cronyism, protectionist policies, and idiotic Indian hubris! Why has it taken India 75 years to pull its finger out? Everything takes a long time in India, it's a reactive culture and not a proactive one, and the fact that China's one-party autocratic system works for the people better than India's chaotic feudal patronage politics does speaks volumes. And of course the corruption in India is endemic and all-pervasive and really stifles everything from infrastructure development to military procurement, and foreign investment! Ironically, with Modi in power and India now sliding towards an autocratic theocracy it won't help at all with the speed and pace of infrastructure development mainly because it's not China! The Chinese are disciplined, organised, and the people have a sense of civic responsibility, Indians are none of those things, unfortunately.
Article 370
The Indians have done next to f@*k all since the British left them to it.
Apart from abuse women.
A country living in the dark ages and long May it stay there.
When people are unemployed to the core something like you is the resultant
