PM Modi to inaugurate Amrit Bharat Express | Fusion - WeRIndia

As the world ushers in the New Year of 2024, a significant gift awaits the common man in India with the imminent inauguration of the first Amrit Bharat Express by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The train, incorporating innovative push-pull technology, was recently inspected by Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw at the New Delhi railway station, heralding a leap forward in Indian rail travel.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is poised to flag off the inaugural run of the Amrit Bharat Express from Ayodhya on December 30.

Formerly known as Vande Sadharan, the train features aerodynamically designed locomotives in the style of Vande Bharat.

The initial Amrit Bharat Express is expected to traverse from Ayodhya in Uttar Pradesh to Darbhanga in Bihar, a route steeped in historical and religious significance associated with Lord Rama and goddess Sita.

A second route, possibly connecting Bengaluru to Malda in South India, is also in consideration.

Designed with the common man in mind, the train comprises 22 non-AC coaches.

Among these are 12 sleeper second-class 3-tier coaches, 8 general class coaches for unreserved passengers, and 2 guard cabins.

The implementation of push-pull technology promises enhanced acceleration and deceleration, contributing to both speed and passenger comfort.

Notably, this technology is indigenous, aligning with the Make in India initiative.

Amrit Bharat Express introduces several innovative features to elevate the passenger experience.

Semi-permanent couplers ensure a seamless journey by eliminating shocks within the train.

Charging points near every seat cater to the modern traveller’s electronic needs.

The train also prioritizes accessibility with special toilets designed for the disabled, featuring wide doors and ramps.

As the nation eagerly anticipates the inauguration of the Amrit Bharat Express, the introduction of cutting-edge technology is coupled with a focus on passenger comfort and accessibility. Thus, it marks a transformative stride in the evolution of Indian railways.

The Made in India approach underscores the nation’s commitment to innovation and self-sufficiency in the realm of rail travel.

The Amrit Bharat Express emerges not just as a train but as a symbol of progress and efficiency in the journey towards a modern and inclusive railway network.
