Indian Railways is soon going to gift Patna the country’s first semi high speed Vande Bharat Sleeper train. It is reported that preparations have been completed to run this Vande Bharat Sleeper train on the Delhi-Patna route.
According to the information received, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will flag off this train next month. This train will not only make the journey to Delhi easy and comfortable for the people of Bihar, but will also set a new record with its excellent facilities and speed.
Vande Bharat is more special than Rajdhani, Amrit Bharat
The Vande Bharat Sleeper train has been designed for a maximum speed of 160 kmph, which makes it different from premium trains like Rajdhani and Amrit Bharat. This train will have premium catering, comfortable sleeper coaches, and state-of-the-art facilities for the passengers. According to a top Railway Board official, the trial run of the train has been successfully completed and it has reached Shakur Basti shed in Delhi. Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnav will give detailed information about the features of this train next week.
According to sources, the fare of Vande Bharat Sleeper train can be 10 to 15 percent higher than Rajdhani Express, in which dynamic fare system will be applicable. However, the final decision has not been taken regarding the fare and route. In view of the Bihar assembly elections, there is a strong possibility of running this train on the Delhi-Patna route, which will give special benefits to the passengers of Bihar. This train will not only save time, but will also provide a premium travel experience to the passengers.
Railway’s special preparations for the festive season
Earlier, Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnav said that the Railways has made special arrangements for the convenience of lakhs of passengers traveling to and from Bihar during festivals like Diwali and Chhath. This time special trains will be run for two months, so that the return of migrants is easy and convenient. Along with this, the Railways has also started a new pilot scheme, in which up to 20 percent discount will be given on return tickets if the tickets for going and coming together are booked under the round trip package. This facility will be available in all trains and classes from October 13 to December 1, 2025.
The operation of Vande Bharat Sleeper train on Delhi-Patna route reflects the commitment of the Railways towards Bihar. This train will not only reduce the travel time but will also provide a world-class travel experience to the people of Bihar. After trains like Rajdhani and Amrit Bharat, the arrival of Vande Bharat Sleeper will further strengthen the rail connectivity of Bihar, making the journey between Delhi and Patna more smooth and comfortable than ever before.
