After inaugurating the world's highest railway arch bridge over Chenab river, PM Narendra Modi said that Kashmir to Kanyakumari has now also become a "reality" for the railways. "We have always invoked Maa Bharati with deep reverence, saying- 'from Kashmir to Kanyakumari'," he added. He further said that the government has fulfilled this "long-awaited dream...despite facing adverse conditions".
