History

From here, a branch line used to go to Amritsar junction via Hussainiwala and Firozpur in India where it connected to the Jalandhar–Firozpur line. Since India–Pakistan war of 1971, the cross-border Kasur-Hussainiwala-Firozpur link is now dead, though India still holds the daily India-Pakistan border ceremony in the form of beating retreat ceremony. However, India is constructing the Firopur-Patti line, to compensate for the lost link, to geostrategically enhance the Indian Railway network along the India-Pakistan border.Ferozepur–Patti link on fast track as Centre takes over land cost: Bittu, Times of India, 13 Nov 2025.
