New Delhi: In a step taken to help the neighbouring nation, Indian officials will provide training to Nepali technicians for the operation of the Janakpur-Jaynagar railway line, media reports said.

A total of 26 officials from India will come to Nepal along with rolling stock, according to a contract, reports ANI.

To bring officials from India, an agreement has been reached between Nepal and Indian Railway Board, Director General of Rail Department of Nepal, Balram Mishra told the news agency.

"We asked for the officials from India in an online video conference held between the Railway Department of India and Nepal. There is a vacancy for various posts in Nepal but no applications have come forward. For now, we will bring officials from India who will also provide training to Nepali officials once the recruitment is done," Mishra said.

"Indian side is also supportive and they are keen to provide the resources so that the rails (project) could hit the track as soon as possible. We have consulted with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs about it. The Board of Directors of Department has given the go-ahead for it, and it would be completed soon when the COVID-19 situation improves," Mishra said.
