Indian Railways to Launch Nine New Amrit Bharat Express Trains from Bengal and Assam

Indian Railways will soon launch nine new Amrit Bharat Express trains connecting West Bengal and Assam with major regions including Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, and Maharashtra. These non-AC sleeper trains, priced around Rs 500 per 1,000 km, aim to provide affordable, long-distance connectivity for middle- and lower-income passengers. The routes link eastern and sub-Himalayan regions to northern, southern, and western India, supporting migrant workers, students, and travelers. Since December 2023, 30 such trains have been operational, with these nine services expanding network reach.
