Prime Minister Narendra Modi
On Saturday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi flagged off the second batch of the Vande Bharat Express train in Telangana.
The Secunderabad-Tirupati Vande Bharat Express is the second Vande Bharat train in the state, connecting Lord Venkateswara’s temple at Tirupati with Hyderabad’s IT City. The railway will cut the travel time between the two cities by over three and a half hours, benefiting pilgrims as well.
PM Modi arrived in Telangana today, where he was greeted by Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan, among others. Among those present were Railways Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw and Union Minister for Culture and Tourism G Kishan Reddy.
PMO India tweeted, “Prime Minister landed in Hyderabad a short while ago. He was received by Governor @DrTamilisaiGuv and other dignitaries”, through its official Twitter handle.
