In a recent statement to the press, Shwet Malik, the ex-MP from the Bharatiya Janata Party, expressed gratitude towards Prime Minister Narendra Modi and former Railway Ministers Piyush Goyal and Ashwani Vaishnav. He emphasised his continuous support for the Amritsar-Jammu Bullet Train project, which he initially mentioned in Parliament in
2017.
In 2018, the project was approved, and work is now scheduled to start after the tender was floated in 2020. Malik proudly mentioned that while serving as an MP, he put in a lot of effort to advocate for the creation of high-speed rail routes linking Amritsar with Delhi and Katra, a goal that is now being achieved by the present government.
