Operation Steel Whirlwind: Bharat Tej Train Hijacked

Image
In the vast landscape of India’s ambitious transportation initiatives, the Bharat Tej stands as a symbol of cutting-edge engineering and unparalleled innovation. A high-speed train capable of reaching 300 km/h, it was designed to connect distant cities in record time, transforming the way people traveled across the country. With its state-of-the-art features, the Bharat Tej was more than just a mode of transport—it was an epitome of technological progress and modernity. However, as with all advancements, it also faced challenges that tested its resilience and safety systems. One such challenge was the hijacking of the Bharat Tej during an operation that would later be known as "Operation Steel Whirlwind." 1. Silent Horror The Bharat Tej, India’s pride and the epitome of cutting-edge engineering, thundered across the Tamil Nadu countryside at a blistering speed of 300 km/h. This high-speed marvel, with 16 luxurious coaches, was more than just a train. It was a symb...
