Assam’s latest Vande Bharat Express: Train timing, tickets prices, and more
Assam welcomed its first Vande Bharat Express, a modern and advanced train, on Monday. Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the train through a video conference. This comes after the Delhi-Dehradun Vande Bharat was inaugurated last Thursday, May 25.
The Vande Bharat Express will connect Guwahati with New Jalpaiguri, covering a distance of 411 km. Compared to the current fastest train on this route, which takes 6 hours and 30 minutes, the Vande Bharat Express will save about an hour of travel time, by completing the journey in 5 hours and 30 minutes.
