Welcoming the dignitaries on the occasion of inauguration of train services Shri Ajay Kumar Singh, GM\/SWR said that this project was the dream of people of this region. He said that due to re-grading at multiple locations and issues of Level Crossing Gate works, the commissioning of Hosapete \u2013 Kotturu line for passenger train took time. This new line connecting Bengaluru \u2013 Hubballi Line with Hubbali-Guntakal line, is a landmark in history of SWR.<\/p>\n

Speaking on the occasion, Shri Karadi Sanganna, Hon\u2019ble MP\/Koppal said that after decades of efforts , this Railway line materialized. He said that credit goes to Shri Suresh C. Angadi, Hon\u2019ble Minister of State of Railways and Shri Y.Devendrappa, Hon\u2019ble MP\/Ballari . He requested to extend the Hosapete-Kotturu train services to Ballari.<\/p>\n

Shri G M Siddeshwara, Hon\u2019ble MP, Davangere and Shri Y Devendrappa, Hon\u2019ble MP, Ballari appreciated the work of Hon\u2019ble Minister of State of Railways and thanked him for initiatives taken for development in Karnataka.<\/p>\n

Before flagging off the train services, Hon\u2019ble Minister of State of Railways said that Harihar -Kotturu new line is a result of many years of struggle. Hon\u2019ble Minister of State of Railways said that similar to Hon\u2019ble PM uniting whole World with Yoga, Indian Railways is uniting and connecting our country, by providing transportation across length and breadth of country. Hon\u2019ble Minister of State of Railways informed that in next 5 years Rs.5 Lakh Cr. will be invested in Railway projects. He reiterated priorities of Railway will be Safety, Punctuality and cleanliness. He also announced flagging off of Vijayapura -Yesvantpur new train on 22nd Oct. He said that extension of Harihar \u2013 Hosapete train services upto Ballari will be looked into. He informed that the emphasis is being given on completion of ongoing projects . He said that with the cooperation of Central and State Govts all pending projects will be completed.<\/p>\n

Later while briefing the Press he informed that the Bengaluru \u2013 Miraj doubling was being done quickly for benefit of three States (Karnataka, Goa and Maharashtra) and that Pune \u2013 Miraj, Miraj \u2013 Londa doubling projects will get special focus along with Hubballi \u2013 Hosapete.<\/p>\n

The section between Hosapete \u2013 Vyasa \u2013 Kotturu(71 Km) meter gauge section has been converted to BG and ready for Passenger traffic.During meter gauge the line was only uptoKotturu and there was a demand to connect this line to Harihar. Futher a new line from Harihar to Kotturu was opened in 2025 for passenger but Hospet to Kotturu was not cleared for passenger traffic. However with this connection the distance will be cut down and save travel time between Bengaluru -Hosapete \u2013 Hampi a world tourist and heritage site.<\/p>\n

Earlier there was no direct rail connectivity between Ballari \u2013 Hospet to Harihar. With the opening of this section and running of passenger trains interior Karnataka will have better connectivity to Bengaluru. Davangere, will also get direct connectivity to Hospet \u2013 Ballari \u2013 Guntakal main line<\/p>\n

The work of completion of the section between Hosapet to Kottur was delayed due to steep gradients, curves and number of Bridges including 8 major bridges. The completion of this new line in difficult terrain is a landmark in history of SWR. Commissioner of Railway Safety has inspected the section on 17.09.2025 and permitted running of passenger trains services on this section.<\/p>\n
