Punjab residents get a big bonanza as Union Minister of State for Railways Ravneet Singh Bittu recently announced an exclusive Vande Bharat sleeper train between Delhi and Amritsar, that is scheduled to be launched by the coming winters. As per the information, the train will travel via Chandigarh, Ludhiana and Jalandhar to further reach the holy city of Amritsar.
So, this comes as good news for the residents of Jalandhar as well.
As per the reports, land has been identified at Ladhowal near Ludhiana for a loco-shed as a mandatory terminal point.

The Indian Railways has planned to launch these sleeper coaches on semi-high speed Vande Bharat Express service that would run on the NCT-Northwest Punjab Corridor.
