Sikkim is the only Indian state which does not have a railway station. This state is not connected to a rail network. The state is connected with roads to other adjacent states and cities. The state is connected with NH10, which connects the state by road to the rest of the country.

Indian State without a Railway Station

India has 29 states, and only Sikkim is not connected to the railway line. Other than Sikkim, only a few union territories exist in India that are still not connected with the railway line to other cities of India. 7 union territories have no railway line. These territories are Andaman & Nicobar Islands, Dadra & Nagar Haveli, Daman & Diu and Lakshadweep.

  • Sivok-Rangpo Railway Line is under construction to connect Sikkim with West Bengal.
  • This project is being handled by Ircon International company.
  • Gangtok in Sikkim will get connectivity with this railway extension.
  • The project was passed in February 2016, and very strict guidelines are being followed, such as speed restrictions, wireless sensors for animals, etc, to maintain the safety of wildlife.

In the last few years, there have been many plans to develop a railway line in the state, but it was done yet. The main reason for no railway station in the state is that almost all the areas of Sikkim are situated in High Mountains. This makes it difficult to implement the plan to construct a railway line here.

Summary:

Which among the following Indian states does not have a Railway Station? 1. Himachal Pradesh 2. Goa 3. Nagaland 4. Sikkim

The only Indian state which does not have a railway station is Sikkim. This beautiful Northeastern state is still not connected to a rail network. The state is connected by road to other adjacent states and cities.
