Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to flag off India’s first Vande Bharat Sleeper Train, inaugurating the new service between Howrah and Guwahati (Kamakhya) on Friday. The sleeper variant of the popular semi-high-speed Vande Bharat series will make long-distance travel faster ...

and more comfortable for passengers on this crucial corridor. Speaking in Jalpaiguri, West Bengal, Union Railways Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said that PM Modi is “giving West Bengal a gift of more than one dozen new trains,” with the Vande Bharat Sleeper service being the first of its kind. Vaishnaw also highlighted ongoing infrastructure upgrades, noting that 101 railway stations across West Bengal are being reconstructed to modern standards.
