Inaugural Run Of City-Lucknow Vande Bharat Special Express 

The introduction of a new Vande Bharat Express Train between Meerut City and Lucknow will significantly improve connectivity and reduce travel time between Meerut City and Lucknow. Such enhanced connectivity leads to growth in tourism, an increase in economic growth, and the connection of people from different parts of the country. It will help cater to demand to reach Lucknow via Moradabad-Bareilly by a faster mode and return to Meerut City in the night, the same day.
