Why Chenab Bridge the World’s Highest Rail Bridge in J&K is a historic achievement for India

The Chenab Bridge in J&K, the world's highest rail bridge, stands 359 meters above the Chenab River, 35 meters taller than the Eiffel Tower. This 1.315 km long arch bridge, costing ₹14,000 crore, connects Bakkal and Kauri in Reasi district. It withstands 8-magnitude earthquakes and high-intensity blasts, allowing trains to cruise at 100 kmph. The bridge is part of an ambitious plan to enhance connectivity between Kashmir and the rest of India, making it a monumental civil engineering achievement by Indian Railways.

Well done BHARAT and its railway engineers. This bridge is a world class achievement like Chandrayaan 3, Aditya sun probe and Ram temple, but will not be acknowledged by the Western Supremacists. The list of must visits just increases every year. JAI BHARAT JAI BIHAR!

Looks like this is a white elephant not for use but for display. If every thing is fine then why so many trial runs?Even the engine is running very slow.Some thing is not right.😊

Evidently your knowledge level on railway equipment testing is only as far as posting foolish comments in YT videos!!

[@BHIKARI-PAKISTANI-PM]

tum khudka pesab pi le

[@guruprasad4089]

China has 10 times more higher than this. How can we call this world's highest. Chinas most common within the city bridges are longer than this.

[@notgenshin397]

bro 10 times is too much check your facts, the highest bridge in china is about 600m and its a normal road bridge and in india its a 350m height long railway bridge so thats the different
