Shanta Chhetri’s Special Mention on restoring the DHR service between Darjeeling and Kurseong

Sir, Darjeeling Himalayan Railway is designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site popularly known as “The Mountain Railways of India.” The passenger train that was in operation from Darjeeling to Kurseong on a daily basis is nonoperational since 2019. It had served till then as the lifeline for the hill community apart from being a huge tourist attraction. I humbly request the hon. Railway Ministry to urgently look into the matter and restore the railway services between Kurseong and Darjeeling. Thank you, Sir.
