Proposal for Vande Bharat train from Tirupati to Shivamogga gets green signal
The proposal for a Vande Bharat train service from Tirupati to Shivamogga has received the green light from the Ministry of Railways. Tirupati MP Maddila Gurumoorthy had written to the Railway Board Chairman and CEO, urging the introduction of new Vande Bharat trains to Tirupati due to the increasing pilgrim footfall. Following this, the Railway Board officially communicated the proposal for a Vande Bharat train running between Tirupati and Shivamogga via Bengaluru.
This new development is expected to cater to the needs of travellers heading to Tirupati for pilgrimage, education, medical treatment, and other purposes, according to Gurumoorthy.
