A Vande Bharat Express struck and killed a man near Tundla in Uttar Pradesh on Tuesday. The incident happened while the train was operating from Varanasi to Delhi. The incident took place a day after the launch of the train in 2019, it hit a cow while getting back from Varanasi. This incident occurred in Uttar Pradesh at Barhan, 15 kilometers from Tundla.

 
According to the officials, the cattle that were run over by the train were the cause of the "skidding wheels." After the train hit a cattle, the wheels started to skid. According to India Today, Northern Railway CPRO Deepak Kumar stated, "Engineers are looking into it."

A man died last month in Kozhikode, Kerala, after being struck by a Vande Bharat train in a similar incident. The train was on its way from Kasargod to Thiruvananthapuram.
 
In the meantime, on Tuesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi unveiled five Vande Bharat Express trains that will connect important cities in various parts of the country, including tourist towns, to the coveted semi-high-speed trains.

Modi made it to the Rani Kamalapati railway station in the state capital of Bhopal, where he flagged off the five trains—two physically and three virtual—that covered half a dozen states. Goa, Bihar, and Jharkhand were the first states to receive such a service, and Modi also took them all to the other states.

It is interesting that so many Vande Bharat trains have been launched in one day.

These semi-high-speed trains are: the Vande Bharat Express runs from Rani Kamalapati (Bhopal) to Jabalpur, the Vande Bharat Express runs from Bhopal to Indore, the Madgaon (Goa) to Mumbai, the Vande Bharat Express runs from Dharwad to Bengaluru, and the Vande Bharat Express runs from Hatia to Patna.
