New RRTS trains to be known as Namo Bharat; Congress targets PM Modi, says ‘no limit to his self-obsession’

Trains of the Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS), to be inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday, will be known as ‘Namo Bharat’, official sources said.

The Congress took a swipe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the naming of trains of RRTS as ‘Namo Bharat’, saying there is “simply no limit to his self-obsession”.

The 17-km priority section of the Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut RRTS Corridor is slated to be opened for passengers on October 21, a day after its inauguration.

This section between Sahibabad and Duhai Depot has five stations—Sahibabad, Ghaziabad, Guldhar, Duhai and Duhai Depot.
