Since its introduction, the Vande Bharat Express trains have garnered immense popularity among the public. Operating on various routes, these semi-high-speed trains consistently run at near full capacity, showcasing a remarkable success story for the ‘Make in India’ initiative.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has actively flagged off numerous Vande Bharat trains at intervals over the past few months. The first Vande Bharat Express train was flagged off by the prime minister on the New Delhi-Kanpur-Allahabad-Varanasi route on February 15, 2019, marking a historic milestone for Indian Railways.
