JOHOR BARU: The Johor government has given its approval to restart work on the 192km electric double-tracking rail project between Gemas and Johor Baru, which stopped due to the movement control order (MCO).

Works, transport and infrastructure committee chairman Mohd Solihan Badri said the decision was made during the state executive council meeting last week.
