<h1>Surrender of Allocated Funds challenged - MP urges rejection to preserve rail project funding and regional connectivity.</h1> A Member of Parliament has requested the Railway Minister and Railway Board to reject Southern Railway's proposal to surrender 2025-26 budget funds for the Angamali-Sabarimala and Tirunavaya-Guruvayur lines, arguing that surrender perpetuates long standing neglect, that the projects' frozen status evidences discriminatory deprioritisation, and that both lines have strategic and socio economic significance; he urges ministerial directions to maintain funding, accelerate implementation and ensure continuation of these long pending projects.
