Indian Railways is set to introduce a Vande Bharat Sleeper between Bengaluru and Mumbai, reducing journey time from nearly 24 hours to under 16 hours. The overnight service will connect KSR Bengaluru with Mumbai CSMT and feature modern sleeper coaches, CCTV, KAVACH safety systems and upgraded facilities. Expected to operate six days a week, the train will offer a faster alternative to the Udyan Express and improve connectivity between the two major cities.
