Bharat Gaurav Trains have showcased India’s rich cultural heritage and magnificent historical places to over 96 thousand tourists last year.
Indian Railways has introduced the concept of operating tourist trains on theme-based circuits under the banner of ‘Bharat Gaurav’ Tourist Trains. These Trains have covered major tourist circuits like Shri Ram-Janaki Yatra: Ayodhya to Janakpur, Shri Jagannath Yatra, Garvi Gujarat tour, Ambedkar Circuit and North East tour.
Under this scheme, the Ministry of Railways has given a concerted thrust for promotion of domestic tourism through provision of rail-based tourism with better quality coaches. This is also in line with the Government of India initiatives ‘Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat’ and ‘Dekho Apna Desh’ to encourage domestic tourism.
