Russia-Ukraine War Delays Manufacturing of Indian Railways’ Vande Bharat Express; Here’s Why


The ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine has also affected the Indian Railways. The production and manufacturing of Vande Bharat Express, also known as Train 18, the most popular train of Indian Railways, is running late due to the Russia-Ukraine war.

The reason is that the wheels of the Vande Bharat Express train come from Ukraine, the largest producer of train wheels in the world. But due to the war, there was a lot of delay in the arrival of wheels from Ukraine in India, thus also delaying work on Vande Bharat Express. However, after the arrival of the wheels of the first train, the railways have found an alternative.

At present, the wheels of one train have reached India from Ukraine while the wheels of the second train are about to arrive. The Indian Railways has entrusted a Chinese company with the wheels of the remaining trains.
