With the partition of India in 1947, while the main part of the route lay in Pakistan, later Bangladesh, the two ends of the route lying in India were detached. (For more details see Howrah–New Jalpaiguri line). However, the route continued to be operational till the Indo-Pakistani War of 1965. Thereafter, the route has been closed. The rest of the line has been in use in the respective countries. Gauge changesThe Silguri–Haldibari line has gone through two successive gauge changes. As most other railway tracks in the area were metre gauge, the line was converted from broad gauge to metre gauge in 1949. Then in the nineteen sixties when broad gauge was introduced in the area, the line was converted back to broad gauge and connected to the new station at New Jalpaiguri.[1] Haldibari–ChilahatiThere are proposals to reoperationalise the Haldibari-Chilahati section. Bangladesh Railway will have to construct 7.5 kilometres of new rail tracks from Chilahati to reach the border while the Indian authorities have to set up 4.5 kilometres of tracks from its border to Haldibari railway station.[2] In the Joint Statement issued on the occasion of the visit of the Prime Minister of India to Bangladesh, on 7 September 2011, it was stated: " Bangladesh Prime Minister expressed her appreciation to the Indian Prime Minister for amendment of the MoU between the Bangladesh and Indian Railways allowing Rohanpur-Singabad as an additional route for both bulk and container cargo for Nepalese rail transit traffic. Bangladesh side also appreciated the assistance from India for the movement of fertilizers from Bangladesh to Nepal by rail route. They also agreed to re-establish rail connections between Chilahati-Haldibari and Kulaura-Mahishashan in the spirit of encouraging revival of old linkages and transport routes between the two countries."[3] Bangladesh started export of fertilizer to Nepal utilizing the Rahanpur-Singhabad transit point in November 2011.[4][5] References1. ^{{cite web| url = http://www.irfca.org/docs/rinbad-siliguri.html|title = India: the complex history of the junctions at Siliguri and New Jalpaiguri | publisher= IRFCA|accessdate = 2011-11-12 }} 2. ^{{cite web |url = http://news.priyo.com/politics/2011/11/27/new-rail-transit-route-thru-in-43288.html |title = New rail transit route thru India gets govt nod |publisher = Priyo Internet Life |accessdate = 2011-11-12 |deadurl = yes |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20130608063635/http://news.priyo.com/politics/2011/11/27/new-rail-transit-route-thru-in-43288.html |archivedate = 8 June 2013 |df = dmy-all }} 3. ^{{cite web | url = http://www.mea.gov.in/bilateral-documents.htm?dtl/5147/Joint+Statement+on+the+occassion+of+the+visit+of+the+PM+of+India+to+Bangladesh |title = Joint Statement on the occasion of the visit of the PM of India to Bangladesh, 7 September 2011| work = Item No. 40 | publisher = Ministry of External Affairs, Government of India | accessdate = 2013-03-04}} 4. ^{{cite web | url = http://news.priyo.com/business/2011/07/11/bangladesh-export-nepal-thru-i-31397.html | title = Bangladesh export to Nepal thru India resumes tomorrow | publisher = Priyo Internet Life | accessdate = 2011-11-12 | deadurl = yes | archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20120406181147/http://news.priyo.com/business/2011/07/11/bangladesh-export-nepal-thru-i-31397.html | archivedate = 6 April 2012 | df = dmy-all }} 5. ^{{cite web | url = http://meaindia.nic.in/mystart.php?id=290018198 |title = Addendum to the Memorandum of Understanding between Bangladesh and india to facilitate overland transit traffic between Bangladesh and Nepal| accessdate = 2009-12-08 | last = | first = | work = | publisher = }} External links
