Vande Bharat Express is a superfast express service operated by Indian Railways.

It is a reserved, air-conditioned chair car service connecting cities that are less than 800 km apart.

In 2019, the first Vande Bharat Express between New Delhi and Varanasi was flagged off at the New Delhi railway station by PM Modi.

According to recent reports, the Bengaluru-Madurai Vande Bharat Express is set to roll out in July.

Details including the speed and fares will be finalised upon the official notification.

Reports suggest that the fare of chair-car is expected to be Rs 1200-1300 and the executive-class passengers might have to pay Rs 1800-2000.
