Prime Minister Narendra Modi will flag off the Delhi-Dehradun Vande Bharat Express today via video conferencing. This will be the first Vande Bharat to be introduced in Uttarakhand.
The regular run of the Delhi-Dehradun Vande Bharat Express will start from 29th May and the train will cover the 302 km distance between the two cities in 4 hours and 45 minutes. The train will run days of the week except Wednesday.
“Uttarakhand’s connectivity is all set to get a big boost. At 11 AM today, I will be flagging off the Vande Bharat Express between Delhi and Dehradun. Making the occasion even more special is the feat of 100 per cent electrification of Uttarakhand’s rail tracks. Do join the programme,” PM Modi tweeted.
The 22457 Delhi (Anand Vihar) to Dehradun will depart from Anand Vihar railway station at 17:50 or 5:50 pm and reach Dehradun at 22:35 or 10:35 pm. It will halt at Meerut City, Muzaffarnagar, Saharanpur, Roorkee, Haridwar.
The Delhi to Dehradun AC chair car ticket will cost Rs 1,065 while executive chair car ticket is priced at Rs 1,890.
Guided by the vision of PM Modi of providing environment-friendly public transport, Indian Railways has launched a drive to electrify all rail routes in the country. Moving ahead in this direction, he will dedicate the newly electrified rail line sections in Uttarakhand.
Trains run by electric traction will also run at higher speeds and are also capable of hauling more freight.
