New images of India's first cable-stayed railway bridge on the Anji river in Jammu and Kashmir's Reasi district have been shared by the Indian Railways.

The under-construction Anji Khad bridge is a part of the Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla Rail Link (USBRL) project and will connect the Katra and Reasi areas through rail links.

The bridge, with a total length of 473.25 metres, will stand at a height of 331 metres above the river bed, which is higher than the Eiffel Tower in Paris. The construction of the bridge is currently ongoing, and no specific completion date has been announced.
