Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw announced that the inaugural Amrit Bharat train, featuring innovative push-pull technology, will be launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Ayodhya soon. During his inspection of the coaches and locomotive at New Delhi station, Vaishnaw highlighted the safety benefits and passenger-centric features incorporated in the new train.
What is push-pull technology?
The push-pull technology, according to Vaishnaw, involves having two engines—one at the front and another at the rear. While the front engine pulls the train, the rear engine simultaneously pushes it, enabling improved acceleration and deceleration.
