Surekha Yadav, recently became the first woman to operate the newly introduced semi-high-speed Vande Bharat Express train. Yadav, who piloted the semi-high-speed train between Solapur station and Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT) in Mumbai, has broken the proverbial glass ceiling a number of times. She earned the distinction of becoming India’s first woman train driver in 1988. Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw also tweeted about Ms Yadav and her Vande Bharat Journey.
