“I work at an IT firm in Pune and my hometown is Nagpur. My home travel by train used to depend on ticket availability. Introduction of Vande Bharat will ease the reservation rush and reduce travel time,” said Amit Gadre.

Another passenger Kedar Mahangale said, “Pune-Nagpur trains are most of the time packed and tickets have to be booked in advance. Vande Bharat train would be a great option for us to travel now.”
