STATEMENT  REFERRED  TO  IN  REPLY  TO  PARTS  (a)  TO  (f)  OF UNSTARRED QUESTION NO. 1639 BY ADV. DEAN KURIAKOSE TO BE ANSWERED IN LOK SABHA ON 13.12.2023  REGARDING ANGAMALYSABARI RAIL LINE

(a) to (f): Angamali-Sabarimala  via  Erumeli  new  line  project  was sanctioned in 1997-98. Work on Angamali-Kaladi (7 Km) and long lead works on Kaladi-Perumbavoor (10 Km) was taken up. However, further works on this project could not be taken forward due to protests by local  people  against  land  acquisition  and  fixing  of  alignment  of  the line, court cases filed against the project and inadequate support from the State Government of Kerala.

Due  to  the  alignment  being  in  thick  forest  area  and  issues  of survey, it was decided to terminate the alignment at Erumeli, which is about  35  KM  from  Sabarimala  shrine.  Accordingly,  Detailed  Project Report (DPR) of the project from Angamali up to Erumeli (111 Km) has been prepared by M/s KRDCL. The Estimated cost of the project has been updated by M/s KRDCL at  3726.95 crore.

Meanwhile, demand has been received for exploring new railway line from Chengannur to Pamba which is a shorter route for Sabarimala Shrine.  Pamba is situated about 4 Km away from Sabarimala shrine. Final  Location Survey for Chengannur - Pamba (75 Km) new line has been  sanctioned.    The  survey  of  said  work  has  been  taken  up  for preparation of Detailed Project Report (DPR).

The  completion  of  any  Railway  project(s)  depends  on  various factors  like  quick  land  acquisition  by  State  Government,  shifting  of infringing utilities, statutory clearances  from various authorities, geological  and topographical conditions of area, law and order situation in the area of project(s) site, number of working months in a year  for  particular  project  site  due  to  climatic  conditions  etc.    All these factors affect the completion time of the project(s).
