The 529.45 km (south to north) Thiruvananthapuram - Kasaragod Semi High-Speed Rail (SilverLine) Project will connect Thiruvananthapuram to Kasaragod through 11 districts and 11 stations. After the project is finished, the trip from Kasaragod to Thiruvananthapuram will take less than 4 hours at a speed of 200 km/h. The current journey time on the Indian Railways network is 12 hours. The project, whose completion date is 2025, is managed by the Kerala Rail Development Corporation Limited (KRDCL). The Kerala government and the Union Ministry of Railways collaborated on establishing the Kerala Railway Development Corporation Limited (KRDCL), also known as K-Rail, to implement significant railway initiatives. SYSTRA MVA Consulting submitted and created the project's feasibility report to K-Rail in May 2019 and its detailed project report, including alignment, in March 2020.
The DPR for the line was accepted by the K-Rail Board of Directors on April 16, 2020, with the inclusion of a new station at Kochi's Cochin International Airport. The DPR was then submitted to the Kerala government for approval. The DPR for the line was authorised by the Kerala state cabinet on June 10, 2020, with a slight alteration to the alignment. As a result, Mahe will no longer be traversed by the railway, contrary to the feasibility report's original recommendation. The line is anticipated to be extended to Mangaluru in Karnataka.

Urban policy scholars predict that Kerala's old rail system won't be able to keep up with demand. Due to the numerous turns and twists in the current route, most trains go at 45 km/h. The government anticipates that the SilverLine project will speed up commuter travel, relieve considerable traffic from the existing portion, and reduce road accidents.The government claims that the line will contribute to a decrease in greenhouse gas emissions, an increase in Ro-Ro services, the creation of jobs, the linking of airports and IT corridors, and a faster pace of development in the regions it passes through.પ્રોજેક્ટની વિગતો

According to K-Rail, the project will use Electric Multiple Unit (EMU) trains with nine cars that may be expanded to 12. Based on the daily average of 80,000 passengers, a 9-car set is estimated to carry 75 passengers per train. The railway line will connect Thiruvananthapuram with the cities of Kottayam, Ernakulam (Kakkanad), Kollam, Chengannur, Cochin Airport, Kozhikode, Kannur, Thrissur, Tirur, and Kasaragod, with stations in each of those cities. There are 1,383 hectares available for purchase, 1,198 of which are designated private land. The Kerala Infrastructure Investment Fund Board (KIIFB), the government's central investment arm, has provided the project with Rs 2,100 crore.વિરોધનો સામનો કરી રહેલા પ્રોજેક્ટ
Environmentalists are concerned that the train line would affect the ecosystem, but the state cabinet believes it will help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. However, they are concerned about the state's wetlands, rice fields, and streams suffering permanent harm. They predict that this will increase future flooding and landslides.No designated locations, such as wildlife refuges, biosphere regions, national parks, or other environmentally sensitive areas, are traversed by the SilverLine line.The Western Ghats, one of the major biodiversity hotspots, is parallel to the alignment. Thus, the effects on biodiversity must be carefully examined. They consist of Madayipara, Ponnani, Kadalundi, and Thirunavaya villages. K- Rail stated that 9,314 structures would have to be destroyed. It is anticipated that at least 10,000 families will need to relocate. This amount might double if the Environment Management Plan (EMP) is completed.સિલ્વર લાઇન પ્રોજેક્ટના મુખ્ય કરારો

Silverline project is a dream project for Kerala and as well as technology of this project as per DPR is latest for civil, system and as well as S&T system proposed ETCS Level 2 with LTE.
It is better to utilise the money for development of under developed districts like Palakkad etc where roads are in shambles.
It’s not a feasible project. Needs an investment far in excess of the projected 64000 crores, will never break even since the number of travellers are bloated up to justify the project.An environmental disaster, necessitating relocation of many families. Vandebharat trains and streamlining of the existing track will serve the requirements
The project is now either mothballed or cancelled. Maybe there should be another news article published to indicate that?
