यूपी में दौड़ेगी सबसे लंबी वंदे भारत ट्रेन; मेरठ-लखनऊ ट्रेन की बढ़ेगी रेंज, बनारस तक चलाने का प्रस्ताव - UP Vande Bharat TrainThe Vande Bharat Express running between Meerut and Lucknow is proving to be a loss-making venture for the Indian Railways. The train is facing a lack of passengers, with 65-70% of seats remaining empty on both directions. Despite having a seating capacity of 530, the train has only managed to attract...
more... a little over 825 passengers so far. To address this, the Railways are considering extending the route of the Meerut-Lucknow Vande Bharat Express to Varanasi. Officials believe this extension would increase passenger numbers and improve the train's performance. This strategy was previously successful in the case of the Gorakhpur-Lucknow Vande Bharat, which saw increased ridership after its route was extended to Prayagraj. The Vande Bharat Express is the fastest train on the Meerut-Lucknow route, taking only 7 hours compared to the 8:25 hours of Rajya Rani Express and 9:30 hours of Nauchandi Express. The train departs from Lucknow Charbagh at 2:45 PM and reaches Meerut at 9:55 PM daily. The return journey starts from Meerut at 6:35 AM and reaches Lucknow at 1:00 PM. The train operates six days a week, except on Tuesdays, making stops at Moradabad and Bareilly during both journeys. Senior DCM of North Railway, Rajnish Tiwari, highlighted the potential benefit of extending the Vande Bharat Express to Varanasi, especially during festivals. He believes it would provide passengers with greater convenience and make the train more viable.

Railways ko train mein sawari na milne ki fikr sata rahi hai, isliye ab ek nayi yojna banai ja rahi hai. Is plan ke tahat Meerut se Lucknow aane wali Vande Bharat Express ko Banaras tak chalane ka prastav taiyaar kiya gaya hai. Railways ke zimmedar batate hain ki puri ummid hai ki iski anumati mil jaayegi. Iske baad filhaal Meerut se Lucknow aane wali Vande Bharat Express aane wale dino mein Banaras tak jaayegi. Isse sawariyon ki sankhya nishchit tour par badhegi aur Vande Bharat Express bhi achchi chalne lagegi. Bata dein ki isse pehle Gorakhpur se Lucknow ke beech sanchalit hone wali Vande Bharat Express bhi yaatriyon ki kami se shuruati dino mein jhujh rahi thi. Ise dhyaan mein rakhkar railway prashasan ne Gorakhpur se Ayodhya hote hue Lucknow aane wali Vande Bharat ki duri badha di. Iska Prayagraj tak ke liye sanchaln shuru kar diya, jiske baad yeh train bhar kar chalne lagi. Ab Meerut Lucknow ki Vande Bharat train ko bhi isi tarah par Banaras tak chalane ki taiyaari hai. Meerut-Lucknow route par ab sabse tez chalne wali train Vande Bharat Express hai. Meerut City se Lucknow Rajya Rani Express se Vande Bharat 1 ghanta 25 minute aur Nauchandi Express se kareeb dhai ghanta pehle pahunchati hai. Rajya Rani Express Meerut se Lucknow tak ka safar tay karne mein aamtaur par 8:25 ghanta ka samay leti hai to Nauchandi Express yeh duri 9:30 ghanta mein puri karti hai. Vande Bharat Express Meerut se Lucknow pahunchne mein sirf 7 ghanta hi lagati hai. Lucknow-Meerut Vande Bharat Express Lucknow ke Charbagh station se har din dopahar 2:45 baje rawana hoti hai aur raat 9:55 baje Meerut pahunchti hai. Meerut se yeh subah 6:35 baje khulkar dopahar ek baje Lucknow pahunchti hai. Meerut se Lucknow ke beech chalne wali Vande Bharat Express ka sanchaln hafte mein chhe din hota hai. Mangalvaar ko train ka parichalan nahi hota hai. Aate-jaate waqt Lucknow-Meerut Vande Bharat Moradabad aur Bareli mein thaharti hai. Uttar Railway ke Senior DCM Rajnish Tiwari batate hain ki Varanasi jile ke beech sanchalit Vande Bharat train mein 20 coach ho jaane se tyoharon ke dauraan yaatriyon ko aavagaman mein kaafi aasani hogi. Iske alawa Meerut se Lucknow ke beech jo Vande Bharat train chal rahi hai use Banaras tak chalane par manthan ho raha hai. Ummeed hai ki jaldi hi is par nirnay ho jaayega. Iske baad yeh train Meerut se chalkar Lucknow hote hue Banaras tak jaayegi. Isse bhi yaatriyon ko badi suvidha milegi.
