News summary

The South Western Railway (SWR) has indefinitely canceled all train services on the Bengaluru-Mangaluru sector due to extensive earth embankment work required after landslips caused by heavy rains in the Sakleshpur-Subrahmanya Road Ghat section. The affected area is accessible only by rail, necessitating the transport of machinery and materials via wagons, with approximately 430 personnel working on-site to ensure safety and comfort. Canceled services include key trains such as the KSR Bengaluru – Kannur Express and the KSR Bengaluru – Karwar Panchaganga Express, among others. Emergency measures have been implemented, including the provision of food, medical teams, and essential supplies for the workers. The SWR is closely monitoring restoration efforts following the landslips that occurred on July 26. This situation highlights the challenges posed by extreme weather on rail infrastructure and services.
