भारत के पूर्वोत्तर इलाके में ब्रहृमपुत्र नद पर देश का सबसे लंबा रेलवे पुल बनाया जा रहा है. दरअसल, असम के डिब्रूगढ़ जिले में असम और अरुणाचल प्रदेश की सीमा पर तकरीबन 5 किमी लंबा यह रेल-सह-सड़क पुल बनाया जा रहा है. भारत सरकार ने वर्ष 1997-98 में इस पुल के निर्माण की मंजूरी दे दी थी, लेकिन 21 अप्रैल, 2002 को तत्कालीन प्रधानमंत्री अटल बिहारी वाजपेयी द्वारा इसके शिलान्यास के पश्चात ही इसका कार्य आरंभ हुआ था.

शुरुआत में इसके निर्माण की गति धीमी रही, लेकिन 2007 में राष्ट्रीय महत्व की परियोजना का दर्जा दिये जाने के बाद इसके निर्माण कार्य में तेजी आयी. इसकी लागत का 75 फीसदी रकम वित्त मंत्रलय और शेष रकम रेल मंत्रलय मुहैया करायेगी. इस पुल की लागत शुरुआत में 1,767 करोड़ रुपये बतायी गयी थी, जिसके संभवत: 2015 में निर्माण कार्य संपन्न होने तक चार हजार करोड़ रुपये पहुंच जाने की संभावना जतायी गयी है. इस पुल में कुल 42 पिलर बनाये गये हैं, जिन पर 125 मीटर लंबे स्टील के बने हुए स्पैन डाले जा रहे हैं. इसे पूरी तरह से स्टील और कंक्रीट के ढांचे से तैयार किया जा रहा है.

इस पुल के निचले हिस्से में रेलवे की दो लाइनें और ऊपरी हिस्से में तीन लेन की सड़क होगी. इस पुल को रेल लिंक से जोड़ने के लिए इसके दोनों तरफ रेल लाइन बिछायी जा रही है. इसमें दक्षिणी किनारे का अधिकांश रेल लिंक तैयार हो चुका है. इस पुल का प्रारंभिक निर्माण अध्ययन और विस्तृत डिजाइन का कार्य रेल इंडिया टेक्नीकल एंड इंजीनियरिंग सर्विसेज ने किया, जबकि इसका ढांचा गैमन इंडिया द्वारा तैयार किया जा रहा है.

The recent rape attempt on a girl in a local train at Mahalaxmi has once again exposed the poor security arrangements by the Railways, indicating that all proposals related to enhance security measures in the ladies coaches are lying in the cold storage. Amid much fanfare, both the Western Railway (WR) and Central Railway (CR) had announced their plans to fit CCTV cameras in ladies compartments. But one year down the line, there has been little progress in the projects. However, during mid-April this year, the WR had installed four CCTV cameras in the ladies compartment, which was at the Churchgate end of a local. Two cameras were installed facing the ladies coach, and two others were in front of the motorman’s cabin to record the activities of the motormen, trespassing etc. But, the inferior resolution of the cameras and its maintenance and security posed a huge challenge for the railway authorities. Officials from the signalling department were not satisfied with the camera’s quality due to which the trial was stalled. “Following the failure in fixing CCTV cameras in the locals on the western line, the CR didn’t opt for a trial either,” said Atul Rane, chief public relations officer, CR. Apart from this, plans to club all five ladies compartments in one row also failed owing to the lack of availability of coaches. In April 2013, Subodh Jain, then general manager of CR, had announced to bunch all women compartments together at the CST-end, initially in the second 15-car local and then gradually in all the locals. But, even this could not be achieved. “Though the plan to bunch the ladies’ compartments was announced, the coaches did not arrive as expected, and therefore, the second 15-car rake has not yet started,” added Mr Rane. The ladies compartments should mandatorily have GRP and RPF personnel between 10 pm and 6 am. However, commuters claim that they hardly see the presence of these officials.
