Tatanagar - Brahmapur Vande Bharat Express willl not start from Brahmapur on its inaugural day, but it will start from Tatanagar and will be flagged off by PM Narendra Modi before flagging off Tatanagar - Patna Vande Bharat Express. Secondly, Dangoaposi Station is missing from the station list of Tatanagar - Brahmapur Vande Bharat Express, whereas it has scheduled stoppage at Dangoaposi Station.
