The ambitious project by Kerla GOV has found a hurdle difficult to cross, The Kerla Government’s shortsightedness can be seen through with this problem.
Was Kerala Gov not properly planned for the Silverline? Did they not consult with the Southern Railway? Did they overlook possible problems such as existing railway lines, land acquisitions, public safety, and many more? was the Silverline Project another bambo statement by Kerla Goverment.

The SilverLine saga hangs precariously in the balance. While K-Rail clings to promises of economic prosperity and improved connectivity, the Southern Railway’s concerns echo a cautionary note. The project’s future hinges on its ability to navigate a tightrope: balancing speed and safety, financial feasibility and public good, and development needs with local anxieties. Whether the SilverLine becomes a gleaming testament to progress or a cautionary tale of unchecked ambition remains to be seen.
