Railways Transport 9 Tonnes of Kashmiri Plums to Chennai, Kolkata

In a significant move for agricultural trade, Indian Railways has successfully dispatched a substantial consignment of Kashmiri plums. Over nine tonnes of the fruit have been transported from the valley to major consumption centers in Chennai and Kolkata.

This initiative by the railways aims to connect producers in Jammu and Kashmir with wider markets, ensuring timely delivery of fresh produce. The dispatch highlights the crucial role of rail transport in supporting the agricultural economy and facilitating the movement of perishable goods across the country.

The transportation of these plums is expected to benefit both the growers in Kashmir by providing them access to new markets and consumers in Chennai and Kolkata by offering them fresh, high-quality fruit.
