Description
Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw highlighted the significance of the new Vande Bharat Express connecting Bengaluru, Mangaluru and Madgaon in Goa. He said Mangaluru is an important region of Coastal Karnataka, where railway connectivity has traditionally faced challenges. Despite difficult terrain, Indian Railways has successfully completed electrification of the Ghat section, which Prime Minister Narendra Modi dedicated to the nation. The newly launched Vande Bharat service will connect Karnataka's capital Bengaluru with Mangaluru and Madgaon in Goa, providing improved connectivity and a faster, more comfortable travel experience for passengers across the coastal and inland regions.
