BHARAT GAURAV TRAINS

Nov. 26, 2021

To promote and attract tourism business, the Indian Railways Tuesday launched Bharat Gaurav trains that will be operated by private players and run on theme-based circuits.

About:

Through this policy, which offers operators the “Right of Use” of its rakes and infrastructure, the Railways has liberalised and simplified a part of operations that was otherwise carried out mostly by the Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC).
While any entity can run these trains, including state governments, it is implied that the policy is targeted at tour operators.
