Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.
Original manifesto wording
“For tourism and economy, we're starting FOFO trains - Follow Foothills Trains. This programme will be implemented with support from GoI.”
Our Assessment
No approved-source evidence was found of a Follow Foothills (FOFO) peripheral foothills rail network being sanctioned or launched. Manipur has major railway expansion underway, the Jiribam-Imphal line, but that is a separate, pre-existing central Indian Railways project, not the FOFO peripheral network promised here. The promise itself stated it would be implemented with support from the Government of India. Marked pending. Context: Manipur saw ethnic conflict from 3 May 2023 and was under President's Rule from 13 Feb 2025 to 4 Feb 2026 (about 23% of the term with no elected government), which materially constrained delivery. Manipur state schemes are under-reported in national outlets, so confidence is low and absence of evidence is not treated as confirmed abandonment.
