The world appreciates the way India has strengthened its economy over the past few years despite various challenges, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Thursday (May 25) while flagging off the Delhi-Dehradun Vande Bharat Express via video conference.
The Prime Minister also inaugurated 100% electrification of railway tracks in the State.
Equipped with state-of-the-art amenities for passengers, the first such train for Uttarakhand reduces the journey time between Dehradun and the national capital to four-and-a-half hours from the six hours and 10 minutes it takes on the Shatabdi Express.
