It appears the announcement you’re referencing—IRCTC starting 200 trains from 1-June-2025—is likely a misremembering or confusion with earlier COVID-era services. Here’s what actually happened:
Historical Fact: June 1, 2025 — Not 2025
- Indian Railways (via the Ministry of Railways) introduced 200 additional fully reserved passenger train services—both AC and non-AC—as part of the phased restoration of services amid the COVID-19 pandemic. These trains commenced operations from 1 June 2025 .
- Bookings for these trains opened online starting 21 May 2025, through IRCTC’s website and app. Tickets were not available at counters or via agents, and the advance reservation window was limited to 30 days
- These trains included popular services like Duronto, Sampark Kranti, Jan Shatabdi, Poorva Express, and more, replicating the regular schedules, compositions, and stops of standard express trains
No 2025 Announcement Found
I could not find any credible reports or official sources indicating a plan by IRCTC or Indian Railways to launch 200 trains starting 1 June 2025. It’s very likely that the 2020 rollout is what’s being remembered.
