More than 100 slums on the Parsik Hill has weakened one of the oldest rail tunnels of Asia

The ever-increasing slum population on the Parsik tunnel has weakened the structure to a greater extent. However, it seems that the authorities concerned are finally serious about dealing with the problem. After struggling for months to take a decision on removing the illegal slums that have come up on the hill, the forest department started demolishing the structures on Tuesday.
