The project will be a boost for employment and development through indigenous technology
India's first Vande Metro, now rebranded as the Namo Bharat Rapid Rail, was officially launched on the Bhuj to Ahmedabad route on Monday.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi flagged off the Namo Bharat Rapid Rail, which aims to provide fast, safe and modern transportation services in urban and suburban areas.
This project is part of the Indian government's "Make in India" and "Atmanirbhar Bharat" (self-reliant India) campaigns. The Namo Bharat Rapid Rail, an upgraded version of the Vande Bharat Express, is specially designed for short-distance travel within cities.
