New Vande Bharat Express: Railway officials stated that the sanctioning of Vande Bharat has fulfilled the long-pending demand of the people of Rajasthan as it will reduce the travel time of over 450-km journey by at least one-and-a-half hours.
Here comes a piece of good news for the Vande Bharat Express train commuters. The people of Rajasthan will get a new Vande Bharat Express soon. In this regard, Union Minister of Law and Justice Arjun Ram Meghwal complimented Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw for approving a new Vande Bharat train from New Delhi to Bikaner in Rajasthan.
Meghwal, who is also a Member of Parliament from Bikaner, also expressed gratitude for sanctioning the doubling of the 11.08-km railway line between Bikaner junction and Lalgarh which, according to him, will solve the level crossings problem within the city.
“You have given a Vande Bharat train for Bikaner which is an important achievement. It will benefit passengers as it will take less travel time,” Meghwal told Vaishnaw in a video posted by the Railway Minister on his social media handle on Thursday.
