India currently does not have any High-speed rail lines operational, but has several lines planned, one of which is currently under construction. The following article lists all the lines in various stages of completion.[1]
Conventional lines: The routes which support an operational speed of less than 110 km/h (68 mph) are conventional rail lines.
Group B lines: The routes which support an operational speed between 110 and 130 km/h (68 and 81 mph) are classified as Group B lines.
Group A lines: The routes that support the speeds between 110 and 160 km/h (68 and 99 mph) are classified as Group A lines.
Semi-high speed lines: The routes that support speeds between 160 and 200 km/h (99 and 124 mph) are considered as a higher speed or semi-high speed rail
High-speed lines: The routes that support speeds beyond semi-high speeds are considered as High-speed lines.
The Delhi-Varanasi High-Speed Rail Corridor is India's second bullet train project after the Mumbai-Ahmedabad Corridor. The 836-kilometre (519 mi) stretch will connect Varanasi to Delhi through 12 stations via Lucknow & Ayodhya.[22]
Diamond quadrilateral is an ambitious plan from India to connect its major cities of New Delhi, Kolkata, Chennai and Mumbai via a high-speed rail network. Sections of this project are either already under construction or approved.[23]
