students. According to railway officials, its regular operation will begin on September 18 at 6:00 AM from Cantt Station. Earlier, at a ceremony held at the station, Anil Rajbhar, a cabinet minister of the state government, stated that the Vande Bharat has ushered in a new chapter in the history of rail transportation. Ravidra Jaiswal, Minister of State (Independent Charge), said that the new Vande Bharat trains will bring convenience to passengers. Other officials present at the event included MLC and BJP District President Hansraj Vishwakarma, Mayor Ashok Tiwari, and North Railway General Manager Shobhan Chaudhary, among others. The train's doors were closed an hour before departure, causing inconvenience to arriving passengers who were unable to board. The train was delayed for 20 minutes at Madhosingh station due to a lack of vacuum pressure. The older Vande Bharat (train number 22435-36) running to New Delhi has also been upgraded to a 20-coach capacity train and will begin regular operation from September 17 at 3:00 PM. The increase in coach capacity of both Vande Bharat trains will now allow for 624 additional passengers. Upon reaching Prayagraj Junction on Monday evening, the train was greeted with a flower shower and the loco pilot and train manager were garlanded. Cabinet Minister Nand Gopal Gupta Nandi, Mayor Ganesh Keservani, and MP Phulpur Praveen Patel were present for the welcome. The Minister said that now 13 Vande Bharat trains will be operational in Uttar Pradesh. The train remained at Prayagraj for 45 minutes before departing for Varanasi at 7:20 PM. The Vande Bharat train, operating with 20 coaches on the Varanasi-Delhi route, will start its regular operation from Tuesday. The first day's train, numbered 22435, will arrive from New Delhi with 20 coaches.

Monday sham 4:20 pe, Prime Minister Narendra Modi ne Ahmedabad se virtual flag dikhaya aur Varanasi Cantt Station ke Platform Number Ek se, 20 coaches wali, desh ki pehli sabse lambi semi-high-speed Vande Bharat train ko ravana kiya.
