The launch of the Belagavi-Bengaluru Vande Bharat train service is on the horizon, generating considerable interest on social media. Reports emerged this morning suggesting a possible cancellation of the service extension, following the circulation of a letter announcing its withdrawal.
It is crucial to highlight that a comprehensive approval letter was initially issued for the extension of four Vande Bharat trains, encompassing one destined for the politically significant state of Rajasthan. However, in light of the Code of Conduct being enforced due to the upcoming elections, the approval for the Rajasthan Vande Bharat train has been rescinded. A revised approval letter, excluding Rajasthan, is expected to be released shortly.
For those eager to know the Belagavi-Bengaluru Vande Bharat train schedule, the details are as follows:
