The Howrah–Bardhaman chord, the 95 kilometers railway line was constructed in 1917. It was connected with Sealdah through Dankuni after construction of Vivekananda Setu in 1932.[3] Howrah to Bardhaman chord line including Chandanpur railway station was electrified in 1964–66.[4]
gollark: You were in the top 20 in your country in maths-related exams, no?
gollark: In general, yes.
gollark: Did you know? The ǂ boson is a type of Boson in the Standard Model. It is prohibited from existing by the laws of physics, but by using a complicated type of particle collider one can still create them using floating point errors. A Floating point accelerator was created by a team of Beniɲ scientists and used to successfully prove the existence of the ǂ boson. The decay exponential of the ǂ boson has base 0.. The ǂ boson has a mass of -65535 ðg, a spin of NaN RPS, no electric charge, and a tactile charge of lemon.
gollark: ¿¿¿
gollark: It's not even hugely minimal though. They have ridiculous special cases to patch over the lack of general solutions.
