Coaches of Vande Bharat trains with berths are being prepared in factories. On Wednesday, the Railway Minister reiterated the point of running Sleeper Vande Bharat during the press conference. Senior DCM Aditya Gupta clarified that there is a plan to run Sleeper Vande Bharat from Bareilly in the division. Its proposed route has been fixed as Bareilly-Chandausi-Aligarh-Agra-Gwalior-Jhansi-Bina-Bhopal-Itarsi-Khandwa-Jalgaon-Manmad-Mumbai. Currently, an express train runs on this route.
