In case of EMUs, acceleration and braking both are super quick. As the MPS is 130 km/h only, it is just as safe as any other 130 MPS train. But yes, additional safety measures would be required for those who are inside.

That depends!
Without using acceleration reserve - Yes!
Using acceleration reserve - No!
According to the report below, with a 22 coach load, a WAP5 (ABB) took 2+ minutes to achieve 110 km/h from zero at TE 100%. 24 is just 22+2, won't make any big difference as such!
Also,

more...
as of today, there is negligible difference between ABB and CLW made WAP5 locos. Both types of locos are used with Gatimaan.

180 seconds is ridiculously high for 110 km/h that too with Gatimaan's load. With Bhopal Shatabdi (18 coaches), WAP5 takes ~3 minutes to achieve 150 km/h in the best cases.
