Amrit Bharat and Namo Bharat Train Services to Begin Soon in Bihar

PM Modi will virtually launch two new train services in Bihar on April 24 — the Amrit Bharat Express and the Intercity Namo Bharat train.

Planning a Trip? 

Amrit Bharat Express:

This new train will run between Saharsa (Bihar) and Lokmanya Tilak Terminus (Mumbai). It will pass through Hajipur, Pt. Deen Dayal Upadhyay Junction (near Varanasi) and Bhusaval.

• Train ticket booking for trips up to 1,000 km will cost around ₹450, making it affordable for many, especially middle-class and economically weaker passengers.



• For the first time, non-AC coaches will have fire detection systems.


• The train will run at a speed of up to 130 km/h.
  

Namo Bharat Intercity Train:

The new Jaynagar–Patna Namo Bharat train is designed for faster city-to-city travel. It will stop at important stations like Madhubani, Sakri, Darbhanga, Samastipur, Barauni, and Mokama.

• This train is fully air-conditioned, has 16 coaches, and can carry about 2,000 passengers.
• It will help connect Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities with bigger towns more efficiently.

The first Namo Bharat train in India already runs between Ahmedabad and Bhuj, reaching speeds of up to 110 km/h.
