People of Munger district will get the facility of Vande Bharat train from Jamalpur to Howrah from October. This is the extension of Bhagalpur-Howrah Vande Bharat, which was demanded by Munger MLA Pranav Kumar from the Railway Minister. This extension will benefit foreign tourists and local businessmen visiting Yogashram.
People of the district will have to wait for just three more months to travel by the country’s first semi-speed train Vande Bharat. Vande Bharat will start running directly from Jamalpur to Howrah from the month of October. Currently, Vande Bharat running between Bhagalpur and Howrah has been approved to be extended to Jamalpur.
Railways has also released the possible timetable for this. With the running of this train, there will be five trains from Jamalpur to Howrah. Currently, four express trains are running to Howrah.
In fact, Munger MLA Pranav Kumar met Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnav in Delhi and demanded to extend Bhagalpur-Howrah Vande Bharat to Jamalpur.
The MLA said that due to the presence of Yogashram in Munger, foreigners from 23 countries come here. In such a situation, the extension of this train starting from Jamalpur will be very convenient for the passengers and tourists. The business of the traders here will also increase. After this, the Railway Minister gave related guidelines.
Demand for one more Vande Bharat
The MLA has demanded from the Railway Minister to make the route of the proposed Vande Bharat between Saharsa-Sealdah as Saharsa-Khagaria-Munger-Jamalpur-Abhaypur-Kiul.
The MLA said that the passengers will benefit from the operation of Vande Bharat to Sealdah from this route and the Vande Bharat train will reach Sealdah via Kiul in less time.
