With this, the ministry has cleared the air around ongoing speculation that the government might use indigenously-produced trains currently being manufactured by state-run BEML at its Bengaluru facility.

In a statement, the ministry said that while the Japanese Shinkansen is currently operating E5 trains, the next-generation model is the E10 (also called Alfa-X).

"In the spirit of strategic Ahmedabad bullet train project. It is noteworthy that E10 will be introduced simultaneously in India and Japan," the ministry said.
