PM Modi Launches Ten New Vande Bharat Trains: Check Details

Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched ten new Vande Bharat trains on Tuesday, March 12, increasing the total number to over 50 and covering 45 nationwide routes. Presently, the Indian Railways operates 41 Vande Bharat Express services, connecting states with Broad Gauge (BG) electrified networks in 24 states and 256 districts.

There are six routes, which will have two operating Vande Bharat trains. These are Delhi-Katra, Delhi-Varanasi, Mumbai-Ahmedabad, Mysuru-Chennai, Kasaragod–Thiruvananthapuram, and now Visakhapatnam–Secunderabad.

It included the second train running from Katra to New Delhi. Amritsar to Delhi, Coimbatore to Bangalore, Mangalore to Madgaon, Jalna to Mumbai, and Ayodhya to Delhi were among the other routes.
