RVNL Faces Public Outcry Over Unnotified Demolition for Double-Tracking at Velsao-Pale

RVNL Starts Double-Tracking Work at Velsao-Pale Without Informing Affected Residents Rail Vikas Nigam Limited (RVNL) has begun double-tracking work at Velsao-Pale, sparking criticism from residents and leaders due to a lack of prior notification. Congress leader Olencio Simoes expressed frustration, pointing out that while Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) norms strictly apply to even small homes, the railways appear to proceed unrestricted by these rules. Simoes highlighted that RVNL initiated the work without formally informing homeowners, despite an ongoing legal case in the High Court regarding the project. Concerned residents demand accountability and adherence to regulations as construction continues to impact local communities.
