    The semi-high speed train will be India’s 17th and state’s first-ever Vande Bharat train which would operate between Dehradun and Delhi’s Anand Vihar terminal.

    Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday virtually flagged off Uttarakhand’s first semi-high speed Vande Bharat Express train connecting Dehradun with the national capital New Delhi at 11am.

    “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% electrification of Uttarakhand’s rail tracks. Do join the programme,” he tweeted ahead of the launch.

    PM Modi will also dedicate the newly electrified rail line sections as a part of his vision to provide cleaner means of public transport and electrifying rail routes in the country. With this, the state will have its entire rail route 100% electrified.
