Tripura Chief Minister Manik Sarkar said: ‘After the Indian Railways extends its line up to Sabroom, it would be very easy to connect with the Chittagong international port in southeast Bangladesh, which is just 75 km from there.’
A small bridge over river Feni can connect Sabroom and Khagrachari, across the border in Bangladesh, to open a second railway link between the two neighbours after the Kolkata-Dhaka rail service that started April 14, 2008, after a gap of 43 years.
‘After extending the railway line to Sabroom, Tripura and the entire northeast would be linked with Southeast Asia very easily,’ Sarkar told IANS.> detail> http://www.sindhtoday.net/south-asia/25948.htm
