Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a grand unveiling ceremony for the world's tallest single arch railway bridge in Indian controlled Kashmir. This bridge spanning the Chenab River, surpassing the height of the Eiffel Tower by 35 meters, has become a new landmark in global bridge engineering and historically achieved railway connectivity between the Kashmir Valley and other regions of India for the first time.

As a landmark project that took more than 20 years to construct, the bridge adopts a double supported continuous arch structure and is a key node of the 272 kilometer all-weather railway line. This railway line extends from Jammu to Kashmir Valley, greatly improving regional transportation conditions and promoting economic development and personnel exchanges along the line.

Modi emphasized in his opening speech that this bridge is not only a breakthrough in engineering technology, but also an important step for India to strengthen infrastructure construction and promote regional integration in the Kashmir region. The completion of this project may bring new opportunities and challenges to the development of the Indian controlled Kashmir region, triggering widespread international attention to the regional situation and infrastructure cooperation.
