The approved projects focus on manufacturing key components such as Multi-Layer and High-Density Interconnect (HDI) Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), Camera Modules, Copper Clad Laminates (CCL), and Polypropylene Films — all of which are critical to the electronics value chain. These initiatives are expected to meet 20% of India’s domestic demand for PCBs and 15% for camera module sub-assemblies, while fully fulfilling the country’s requirement for Copper Clad Laminates. The ECMS has attracted strong interest, with 249 applications representing ₹1.15 lakh crore in proposed investments and the potential to generate over 1.42 lakh jobs.

According to the Ministry, the projects will reduce import dependence, lower product costs, and foster high-skill employment in manufacturing and R&D. They will also strengthen trusted supply chains for sectors such as defence, telecommunications, electric vehicles, and renewable energy. Forming a crucial link between the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme and the India Semiconductor Mission (ISM), the ECMS supports India’s broader vision of becoming a global electronics manufacturing hub. Vaishnaw said India is emerging as a “product nation,” capable of designing, manufacturing, and exporting complete electronic equipment, thereby driving innovation, scale, and self-reliance.

Real-Time Monitoring and Passenger Convenience Measures

Vaishnaw visited key facilities including the RPF Control Room, First Aid Room, and interacted with passengers of the Patna-bound Amrit Bharat Express. He reviewed congestion management and dedicated holding areas for travelers. A central War Room at Rail Bhawan, along with similar setups across all zones, is monitoring passenger movement in real time to address congestion and emergencies swiftly.

Enhanced Facilities and Inclusive Initiatives Across India

To improve the passenger experience, Indian Railways has strengthened amenities such as additional ticket counters, clean washrooms, potable water, and mobile ticketing via the M-UTS app. Initiatives like ‘Project Ayushman’ at Mysuru Station—introducing nursing rooms for mothers—and the all-women-operated Lucknow City Station showcase the Railways’ focus on inclusivity and service quality. Vaishnaw emphasized that these efforts reflect the Railways’ commitment to providing safe, efficient, and passenger-friendly travel during the festive season.

The Amrit Bharat Express, known for its popularity among the middle class and common passengers, currently operates 12 services nationwide, with 10 of them running from Bihar. With the launch of three additional trains, the total number will rise to 15, with 13 operating from the state.

The newly inaugurated Amrit Bharat Express trains will run on three routes: Muzaffarpur to Charlapalli near Hyderabad, Darbhanga to Madar Junction near Ajmer, and Chhapra to Anand Vihar Terminal in Delhi. The Muzaffarpur–Charlapalli service will be the first Amrit Bharat train connecting Muzaffarpur to South India, while the Chhapra–Anand Vihar route will become Bihar’s sixth Amrit Bharat link to Delhi.

These state-of-the-art indigenous trains are designed to provide passengers with a fast, safe, and comfortable travel experience. They are expected to strengthen Bihar’s connectivity with different regions of the country, particularly North and South India, and contribute to the state’s economic growth by promoting tourism, trade, and employment opportunities.

Developed by Indian Railways, the Amrit Bharat Express has emerged as a symbol of modernization in the national railway system. The trains come equipped with advanced features, including semi-automatic couplers, fire detection systems, sealed gangways, and talk-back units. For the first time, advanced technology has also been introduced in non-AC coaches to enhance passenger safety.

In addition to the Amrit Bharat Express services, Union Minister Vaishnaw and Deputy Chief Minister Choudhary will also flag off four passenger trains to meet the needs of local commuters. These services will operate on the Patna–Buxar, Jhajha–Danapur, Patna–Islampur, and Nawada–Patna via Sheikhpura–Barbigha routes.

The new Nawada–Patna passenger train will operate six days a week via Sheikhpura, Barbigha, Asthawan, Bihar Sharif, and other towns, fulfilling a long-standing demand of local residents. Similarly, the Patna–Islampur and Nawada–Patna trains will run through the newly developed Jatdumri–Fazalchak–Top Sarthua–Daniyawan line, providing crucial connectivity for nearby regions. PIB
