Sikkim is closer than ever to joining India's rail map! The Railway Ministry has greenlit a crucial 34-km rail link from Rangpo to Gangtok (approx. Rs 9,000 crore), building on the heels of the landmark Sivok-Rangpo project set to finish by late 2027. Carved through tough Himalayan terrain, these combined railway lines will soon connect Gangtok to the rest of the country, unlocking massive potential for tourism, trade, and travel in the Northeast.
