A Unique concept of push pull train is recently been tried by Indian Railways. First with Push Pull Mumbai Rajdhani Express then T18 Vande Bharat Express and recently in SWR using EMD locomotives at both end of train.

Nice capture.
I believe this is just to avoid loco reversal at Tumkur and Bangalore, as the train has barely 30 minutes turnaround time at both places.
Push-Pull needs modification in the rakes and needs control cables to be run all along the length of the rake, with IV connectors provided for the locos. These locos don't seem to have any such arrangements, and as far as I am aware, no self-generating ICF coaches have been modified this way.

In one of the videos on Youtube of same train, It is shown that Crew present in Rear loco as well, & concept used here is just like Bankers in SWR Ghat section, with Rear loco manually controlled by crew using Communication via Walkie-talkie.
Could you provide a link to that video? In most of the videos I've seen, the rear loco was On, but was only idling, probably being prepared to take over for the return trip.
Push-Pull with walkie-talkies on a route like this is quite dangerous and very difficult for the loco-pilots to handle. On ghats, the bankers provide most of the pushing effort, and the route is a continuous upward gradient, so the loco pilots need not worry about too many variables.
But on a route like this, with MPS runs and both...

Thanks! I've seen this one as well. There is a noticeable difference in the sound between both the locomotives. The leading loco has the classic airplane-like sound made by EMD locos when they are running. The rear loco just sounds like it is idling.
A local member mentioned that the second loco was provided due to the tight turn-around time at both Tumkur and Bangalore for this train. It is not a push-pull operation. As the runs are very short (about 2 hours each), the crew would stay in the locomotive itself (no crew changes). The crew of the rear loco would keep the locomotive idling (or power it up accordingly) and take the lead once the train reaches the end...
