Prime Minister Narendra Modi will on Tuesday visit Madhya Pradesh capital Bhopal, where he will flag off five Vande Bharat trains, Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has said.
After arriving here, Modi will head to Rani Kamalapati railway station from where he will physically and virtually flag off a set of five Vande Bharat Express trains connecting important cities in different parts of the country.
This is for the first time so many Vande Bharat trains will be launched in one day.
Two of them will be for Madhya Pradesh, where the Assembly polls are due by the year-end.
“These trains will improve connectivity in Madhya Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Goa, Bihar and Jharkhand,” Modi said in a tweet on Monday.
These semi high-speed trains are: Rani Kamalapati (Bhopal)-Jabalpur Vande Bharat Express, Khajuraho-Bhopal-Indore Vande Bharat Express, Madgaon (Goa)-Mumbai Vande Bharat Express, Dharwad-Bengaluru Vande Bharat Express, and Hatia-Patna Vande Bharat Express, an official statement said.
At the second function in the state capital, Modi will address 3,000 BJP workers selected from across the country who have made effective contributions in empowering their booths under the party’s ‘Mera Booth Sabse Majboot’ campaign, state BJP president Vishnu Dutt Sharma said.
