He also brought up the delayed police verification and medical checkups for laborers working at the Chhindwara goods shed, the lack of regular cleaning in trains originating from Chhindwara, and the need for a subway near the railway crossing in Chhindwara city. The railway administration cited capacity constraints as a reason for not immediately implementing the train proposals and indicated that they would consider them after the completion of infrastructure work.

ships to pass, was moved inch by inch over 450 meters in the past few weeks. The remaining four girders are scheduled to be launched by August 31st, along with making the lift span operational. The new bridge, with a single railway line but provision for a second, will replace the old Pamban bridge built in 1914. Work, which started in 2019, was delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic. The old Pamban bridge was closed in December 2022 due to safety concerns, and trains are currently terminating at Mandapam.

Officials are tasked with ensuring power supply, signalling, communication, and track fitness by September 30th.
