Rail services on the Bengaluru-Mangaluru route have resumed following track restoration work required after landslips affected the segment between Ballupet and Sakleshpur.

Train services were originally halted following a landslip on August 10, leading to the short-termination of three overnight trains on this route.

Persistent landslides, particularly between Yadakumari and Kadagaravalli on the Sakleshpur-Subrahmanya Road Ghat stretch, caused continued disruptions from July 26 to August 9, complicating the restoration efforts.
