The Katra–Amritsar Vande Bharat Express will now run via Gurdaspur and Batala, replacing its earlier route through Jalandhar. The revised alignment shortens travel distance and reduces journey time, improving efficiency. By extending high-speed connectivity to smaller towns, the change reflects a shift toward smarter route optimization, enhancing passenger convenience and strengthening regional rail access across key travel corridors.
