Guwahati: Train services linking Tripura, Manipur, Mizoram, and the Barak Valley through Guwahati remained suspended for the second day on Tuesday after a landslide damaged rail tracks in the New Haflong-Jatinga Lampur section. The tracks were obstructed when muddy soil and stones fell during National Highway Authority of India (NHAI's) road repair work, affecting rail connectivity. Northeast Frontier Railway (NFR) CPRO Kapinjal Kishore Sharma said, "Continuous efforts are underway by the railways and state authorities for early restoration. A high-level emergency meeting was convened to review the situation and formulate immediate solutions. Senior officials of NFR, state govt, NHAI, and other agencies concerned attended the meeting."
