First Vande Bharat completes one year in Kerala, continues to be a superhit

The Vande Bharat Express in Kerala celebrated its first anniversary on April 28th, 2024. Launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on April 25th, 2023, the Thiruvananthapuram-Kasaragod-Thiruvananthapuram (20633/20634) Vande Bharat Express has become a huge success, leading in passenger numbers and occupancy rates among all Vande Bharat trains in India. With an...

occupancy rate exceeding 200%, the train has been incredibly popular, often selling out tickets. In its first six days, it collected Rs 2.7 crore in fares. The Kerala Vande Bharat service is a testament to the government's efforts to enhance train speeds in the state, involving track improvements and new signaling systems. While the Thiruvananthapuram-Mangaluru-Thiruvananthapuram Vande Bharat also boasts high occupancy rates, the Mangaluru-Goa-Mangaluru Vande Bharat has an occupancy rate below 50%. To accommodate the Vande Bharat schedule, modifications were made twice to ensure minimal disruption to other train services. The current schedule for the Thiruvananthapuram-Kasaragod-Thiruvananthapuram Vande Bharat (20634) is departure from Thiruvananthapuram at 5.15 a.m. and arrival in Kasaragod at 1.20 p.m., with the return journey (20633) leaving Kasaragod at 2.30 p.m. and reaching Thiruvananthapuram at 10.40 p.m.

rate mein top pe hai. 200% se zyada occupancy rate ke saath, tickets last minute mein milna almost impossible hai. First six days mein, Rs 2.7 crore ticket fares se collect hua. Kerala mein train ki speed badhane ke liye efforts kiye jaa rahe hai, tracks ko straight kiya jaa raha hai aur new signalling system install kiya jaa raha hai. Thiruvananthapuram-Mangaluru-Thiruvananthapuram Vande Bharat ka bhi occupancy rate 165% se zyada hai. Mangaluru-Goa-Mangaluru Vande Bharat ka occupancy rate 50% se kam hai. Vande Bharat ke schedule ko twice modify kiya gaya hai. Currently, train (20634) Thiruvananthapuram se 5.15 am pe chalta hai aur Kasaragod 1.20 pm pe pahunchta hai. Return journey (20633) Kasaragod se 2.30 pm pe chalta hai aur Thiruvananthapuram 10.40 pm pe pahunchta hai.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
