Train services have been disrupted up to noon in Jagadalpur-Kirandul rail section of Kottavalasa-Kirandul (KK LIne) rail line under East Coast Railway jurisdiction since morning by the miscreants.
Four pieces of rails had been removed from the rail line between Dantewara and Kamlur stations of ECoR in Chhatisgarh since early morning and Over Head Electricity (OHE) had also been removed from the midnight of last day.
ECoR has cancelled 1VK/2VK Visakhapatnam-Kirandul-Visakhapatnam passenger from both the directions between Jagadalpur and Kirandul. Freight trains were detained enroute at different stations in KK line.
