Nashipur Rail Bridge or Nashipur – Azimganj Rail Bridge will connect Nashipur and Azimganj across the river Bhagirathi of district Murshidabad in West Bengal. The bridge existed during British regime and was later disbanded during World War II. Azimganj - Nalhati Railway line started in the year 1872. This rail bridge on the Bhagirathi river will reduce travel time between South Bengal and North Bengal. As per railway officials the bridge would reduce the distance between Sealdah and New Jalpaiguri by about 21 km. Trains like Teesta - Torsha Express (Sealdah to Jalpaiguri) and Radhikapur Express ( Kolkata Station to North Dinajpur) will benefit when the route starts. ==Land acquisition problem== More the 90% of the work has been completed but due to land acquisition problem the work is stopped. Due to the ongoing land acquisition problem for this track the Rs. 70 crore for this project of Indian Railways stands abandoned. The plots that need to be acquired are located between Azimganj railway junction and the right bank of the Bhagirathi in Mahinagar area of Murshidabad - Jiaganj block. Rail Roko agitations has been organised since 1994 by Murshidabad District Railway Passengers Association over this long standing demand. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nashipur Rail Bridge」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
