World's toughest railway of Assam, India
This is probably one of the bloodiest railway routes all across
the world. Midst unparalleled genesis-ed natural beauty and brutal
extremists and terrorists rule this unknown part of India by the
name of Black Widow. 100s of security personnel have been killed
over these years and least to say, whenever you travel this route
you stick your head into the guillotine. Train Engineers being
kidnapped and brutally murdered, maintenance staff being massacred
has been common place on this track.
ULFA is the mother organisation that funds and seeds such
terrorist groups. It has been a sad history for these beautiful
hills. ULFA has had a history of extortion. It exhorts money out of
railway contractors and the railways themselves through blackmail,
kidnapping and murders. Though, in recent events, ULFA has been
declared as a illegal organisation and after years of hard work by
the Indian forces and government the hills have calmed down. Though
it is still the eerie weird calm.
But the pristine and untouched nature is a sight to drool on as
you will see in the video. So sit back and enjoy Interior Assam
(From Lumding to Lower Haflong)
