Sikkim: India's Only State Without Rail Connectivity, But Not For Long!

• Sikkim is currently the only Indian state without a railway track or station due to its challenging Himalayan terrain.
• Construction is underway on a 44-45 km railway line from Sevoke to Rangpo, expected to be completed by 2027.
• This project, involving numerous tunnels and bridges, is one of India's most complex railway endeavors.
• Future plans include extending the railway line to Gangtok, boosting tourism and transport in the region.
• Currently, Sikkim is accessible via train+road (New Jalpaiguri), flight+road (Bagdogra/Pakyong), or direct road routes.
