Thiruvananthapuuram, Nov 23 (TIWN) A day after reports surfaced that special officers have been appointed by the Pinarayi Vijayan government in Kerala to acquire land for the now controversial Silver Line (K-Rail), a state of the art joint venture of the Indian Railways and the State Government, the Congress led UDF on Tuesday warned Vijayan that they should not go forward with this project.
Incidentally, this is one of Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan's pet projects, which if done will set up a 529.45 km corridor connecting Thiruvananthapuram to Kasaragod. A semi-high-speed train will be able to travel this stretch in a matter of 4 hours at an operational speed of 200 km per hour.
