Likely fake. IR has many condemned rakes and NASA or any other foreign country never has any info about their location. And NASA is not dumb that it will mistake a train carriage rake for an ICBM.

Rajdhani Express completes 55 years of services , still being a superior category, for several reasons. From passengers' point of view, all of us are aware of the specialities. The specialties from Operational point of view, are briefed, except for sensitive infos:

тАв Starting from the basic maintainance, the Rajdhani Express has its very own Rajdhani section with staffs (image attached)
тАв Usually

a single loco is nominated for normal coaching trains, but Rajdhani has two nominations (image attached) .
тАв The train is never mislinked with other zone locos from Howrah, dedicated Howrah shed Medha locos are considered reliable enough.
тАв In real time running, even Vande Bharat trains do not enjoy such priority & attention over ER.
тАв Some call it as ' рж░рзЗрж▓ ржмрзЛрж░рзНржбрзЗрж░ ржЧрж╛ржбрж╝рж┐ ' meaning the train of rail board. Every train of IR is under Rail Board, but some Rajdhanis are directly observed by Board.
тАв Any man/machine error in the section should be cleared before Rajdhani's passing. Several times observed Vande Bharat/Shatabdi suffering from such errors, but Rajdhani rarely suffers.
тАв Minute delays can invite showcause/chargesheet/suspension to/of the concerned official/staff responsible for the detention

тАв Recent incidents: Date- 6th Jan 2024 at MSAE

An emergency was notified by SM/MSAE at around 16:35 that signals of Delhi end was not responding & panel board is malfunctioning. Visually, the signals were not showing any aspect.

During investigation after few hours, it was found that JCB operator was careless enough to chop off the OFC of MSAE station section while working over Bankura connection project. After initial formalities, TrnNo.12345 was started from JRAE at 17:15. Rajdhani Express suffered detention for 120+ minutes being stuck behind 3 EMUs.

All trains had to be received/dispatched by paper clearance [specifically, T369 (3a) for Home signal & T369 (3b) for Starter signal ... image attached] . Divisional signal inspector & others rushed to spot from Howrah by road. Problem rectified after 02:00 AM.

Sectional Signal inspector was issued chargesheet in this case.

тАв There are other incidents too, where a L/c gate couldn't be closed due to traffic, and Rajdhani had to stop for 3 minutes. The gate keeper was served showcause notice & asked to report at DRM office next day.

тАв Most of us are aware of Baruipara incident of 2302 with 30201/GMO WAP7 (then) which resulted in initial transfers of WAP7 fleet from Gomoh shed.

Rajdhani still continues to be the most important category & service, inspite of introduction of so many categories over Indian Railways.

I believe BBS Raj leads the pack now. There's no reason to delay a particular train extra by IR, could be some unfortunate incidents or maintenance issues with HWH shed locos

Unlikely because MCC will be in place by March 15, no inauguration after March 15 till May 31, and practically govt formation takes at least a month, so not before July unless it's done by March 15

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake.
