The Northeast Frontier Railway has decided to restore the services of passenger carrying trains which were earlier cancelled due to breaches in more than 60 locations of the Lumding – Badarpur section under Lumding Division. Railway officials along with local labourers worked round the clock to bring back the national transporter on track in these affected areas so that scarcity of essential items in states like Manipur, Tripura, Mizoram and Barak Valley of Assam could be avoided. Freight train services were started w.e.f. midnight of July 12, 2022.
