Über diesen Titel
In this episode of A Century of Stories: India, Kunal Vijayakar is joined by Ananth Rupanagudi to explore the story of the Bhor Ghat railway line - one of the most challenging engineering feats in India’s history. Built across the steep and unforgiving Western Ghats, this line connected Bombay to Pune, reshaping trade, travel and colonial governance.
But behind the tunnels, viaducts and engineering brilliance lies a far more complex story - of the people who built it, the immense financial and human cost, and the thousands of Indian lives that were never recorded. From colonial strategy to forgotten histories, this episode uncovers what it truly took to build Bhor Ghat.
The story of Bhor Ghat also offers historical context to modern projects like the Mumbai-Pune Missing Link corridor, showing how the same region continues to pose some of India’s toughest infrastructure and engineering challenges.
Watch the full episode now and discover the story behind one of India’s most iconic railway lines.
