Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday flagged off the Secunderabad-Tirupati Vande Bharat Express train here.
PM Modi, who arrived in the city, flagged off the service from Secunderabad Railway station.
He boarded the stationary train at the railway station and interacted with school children.
The train will reduce the travel time between Secunderabad in Telangana and Tirupati in neighbouring Andhra Pradesh, by almost three and half hours and will be particularly beneficial for pilgrims.
