Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw recently inspected the progress of India's first bullet train project, expressing satisfaction with the advancements and the confidence displayed by the railway engineers. The project, which is a testament to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision, includes a complex construction of a terminal station at BKC, Mumbai. Vaishnaw announced that the first section of the 284-km-long High-Speed Rail Corridor between Surat and Bilimora is slated to begin operations in 2026, highlighting the project's potential to transform the Mumbai-Ahmedabad route into a significant economic corridor. The corridor is expected to significantly reduce travel time between the two cities. Additionally, Vaishnaw hinted at a shift towards self-reliance, suggesting that future bullet train projects may not involve foreign partners.
