Prime Minister Narendra Modi will flag off Goa’s first Vande Bharat Express train from Madgaon railway station tomorrow at 10:30 AM through video conferencing.
The state-of-the-art Vande Bharat Express will improve the connectivity between Mumbai – Goa. The train will operate between Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus and Goa’s Madgaon station.
The train will cover the journey in seven and half hours which will help save about one hour of journey time compared with the current fastest train connecting the two places.
The indigenously made train, equipped with world class amenities and advanced safety features including KAVACH technology, will also boost tourism in both states.
