Vande Bharat trains: Budget 2022 laid out a grand plan of introducing 400 semi-high speed, next generation Vande Bharat trains in the next three years. FM Sitharaman pointed out that these "new-generation" Vande Bharat trains will offer better energy efficiency and passenger riding experience. But those are perhaps not the only reasons why the country’s budget and Indian Railways seem to be betting big on these fancy new trains that were first unveiled in 2018 as Train 18. Experts are of the view that multiple objectives, including the need to improve railway finances and operational efficiency are a factor too. The ambitious number of 400, if achieved, will help railways earn better passenger revenues and provide a thrust to the 'Make in India' component manufacturers, they say.

But this track too has some implementation hurdles experts pointed out to us. What are Vande Bharat trains? These train sets first revealed in 2018 captured the imagination of train travellers even when in the prototype stage.
