This software will provide a range of services, including ticket buying, train tracking, and other railway-related operations, boosting ease and accessibility for travelers.The plan includes a number of important initiatives, one of which is the implementation of a 24-hour ticket refund scheme, which will revolutionize the procedure for travelers. The goal of this program is to expedite the cancellation of tickets by providing a simple, quick refund process in less than a day, which is a big improvement over the existing three-day process.

As part of its promise to increase connectivity, Indian Railways is getting ready to start construction on the last section of the Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramula Rail Link. In order to improve communication in the area, this enormous project comprises the building of the Chenab bridge, the highest railway bridge in the world, and the Anji Khad bridge, India's first cable-stayed bridge. In addition, the railway ministry plans to launch sleeper Vande Bharat train variants to accommodate a range of passenger requirements. Indian Railways' dedication to innovation and contemporary railway transportation is demonstrated by the creation of these sleeper trains. 

The report further stated that Indian Railways wants to speed up the Ahmedabad-Mumbai bullet train project in an effort to expedite infrastructure projects. The government plans to operationalize a large chunk of the corridor by April 2029, and it will improve high-speed connections and stimulate economic growth along the way.

The administration plans to request cabinet permission for three 40,900 km long economic corridors, indicating a significant Rs 11 lakh crore investment.
