MUMBAI – Maruti Suzuki India Ltd. became the first automobile manufacturer to use the Indian Railways to dispatch vehicles into Jammu and Kashmir as it announced Friday the arrival of the first lot of its vehicles there. A train carrying over 100 Maruti Suzuki cars such as the Brezza, Dzire, WagonR, and S-Presso left the company's in-plant railway siding at its plant in Manesar and delivered the cars at the newly opened Anantnag railway station.
