After the success of the Bharat Gaurav train on the Ramayana Circuit, the IRCTC NSE 0.86 % on Tuesday announced a second run of the train, which will go to Nepal as well. The Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation NSE 1.00 % (IRCTC), a public sector undertaking under the Ministry of Railways, has announced that the train will be run again on August 24.
Like the first tour, the train will again go to Nepal from India and connect Janakpur in the neighbouring country. The special theme-based tour will cover pilgrimage and heritage sites across India, including Ayodhya, Sitamarhi, Buxar, Varanasi, Prayag, Chitrakoot, Nasik, Hampi, Rameshwaram, Kanchipuram and Bhadrachalam. To ensure additional comfort for elderly passengers, the duration of the Ramayan Yatra tour has been revised from 18 days to 20 days in its next schedule.
