it was always chicken egg situation, in fact it was vande bharat's popularity which kinda refreshed the railway into reworking on railway stations, attracting middle class and creating an extended railway fandom and eventually speeding up the process for kavach, track upgradation etc.
it jolted and let people know that things can be improved, and eventually made them realizing what was missing and how it can be improved.
most importantly it distilled down to the commoner
>amrit bharat
it's mostly refresh of wap 5 and lhb coaches
>vande metro
kino idea we should have more of these across cities, may even replace short distance intercity passenger trains
>vande bharat chair car versions
>vande bharat sleeper
>vande bharat sleeper variants from Kinet and BHEL which would be even better
>future vande bharat.
Its very similar to CR200J trainsets of china.

i have travelled in pretty old vande bharats they are decently maintained and we are going to see atleast 8 more such trainsets getting operational so you may get more chances

280kmph vande bharat is literally under going prototype manufacturing.
DPC corridor is under work which is going to make 240kmph norm over 7000km+ track.
kavach, track upgrade, fencing all parts of the process. you can't have everything in split seconds.

pic related is slightly outdated, was made happen in just 3 years. close to 150+ VB trainsets.
Vande Bharat sleeper is kino addition in all way considered.
it has kavach 4.0 too.

It started with simple train collision protection system, preventing head on collisions, preventing SPADs etc. But that was like kavach 1.0, 2.0
now it has moved on to 4.0 with additional ability to have digital signals within the cabin which means drivers would be easily able to operate in peak foggy conditions, it can auto control the speed limit based on the signals or whatever block train is in so on.
it is very much comparable to ETCS L2 level of system.
now in future soon they will be going to moving block section where instead of having routes divided into separate blocks a train can have a certain safe limit which changes. this would allow even more frequency of train operations on existing trains.
each kavach system also has a speed support, like kavach 4.0 can support trainsets with speed 160kmph, kavach 5.0 will be higher.
the significance of this system in railways is like UPI was for payments. cheap and very well made.
it has all sorts of subsystems like fiber optics, rfid etc. to track the trains so on, obviously servers etc. apart from kavach system onboard the trainsets.
this dude provides some decent explanation

Do these systems need overhaul of tracks or just trains? How does the system work exactly? And why is it taking so much time to apply it to all existing trains if it's cheap and effective as you say

electrification of railway was going on for last 7 to 9 years that was a priority.
now kavach is a priority, 1000 or so km done, they are planning for rollout on entire route within 5 years (very very ambitious) - check reports please since my memory is hazy on exact length but it'll cover most. and yes it involves lots of subsystems, you have to modify the train, have entire route covered with fibre optics cables, rfids, gps systems. so on.
Here's great read on the topic https://old.reddit.com/r/indianrailways/comments/1fqq2u0/3_part_series_about_the_functioning_of_kavach/
