Kabindra Purakayastha disappointed with broadgauge progress
The broadgauge conversion between Silchar and Lumding is taking ages. Even after tons of money spent on the project, things are going extremely slow. There was exchange of some sharp words between Santosh Mohan and BJP leader Kabindra Purakayastha on Friday.
Kabindra told the reporters “Broadgauge is still out of sight, but Santosh Mohan Deb announced that he will ride the broad-gauge for vote campaigns in 2009”. Santosh Mohan denied all the claims saying he never made such a remark.
