High speed / Semi-High speed rail projects of Indian Railways

Ashwini Vaishnaw is so based. Guy is a monster negotiator. Now you have a japanese crying because AV puts Indian interests first. If it were upto Japanese we would be forever locked into their propriety signalling system. Meaning we would forever be beholden to japanese trainset manufacturers. Glad we went for global standard.

Everyone is seeing the progress of both the ministries under him -
Semiconductor Mission 2 + Mobile Manufacturing Scheme
High Speed Rail

If only we had similar subject matter experts as Defence Minister & Minister for Department of Space - we would have improved leaps & bounds.

He is an Engineer, he is engineering a system. So was manohar parrikar.

Is that a pattern?

Ah ic thats why they were crying, cause they wanted to lock us into their own signallin system like they did taiwan. Well too bad.

Not only are they crying....there are folks crying for them in India. I thought the INC would refrain and leave this issue alone. They picked it up as well and joined in.

I believe this chap is a national spox for them.

Can't even talk without using, I think these criticism comes from genuine misunderstanding

Kerala's government has put on hold the proposed Thiruvananthapuram-Kannur high-speed railway corridor after an expert committee found the interim report submitted by the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation incomplete.

Chief Minister VD Satheesan announced the decision following a Cabinet meeting on Wednesday (15 July), stating the panel had flagged the proposal for lacking environmental and social impact assessments.

The 473.2 km corridor, designed by veteran railway engineer E Sreedharan as an alternative to the scrapped K-Rail project, would have connected Thiruvananthapuram with Kannur and reduced travel time between Kerala's southern and northern districts to approximately 3.5 hours.

Satheesan said that the expert panel had recommended against making any decisions based on the incomplete report.

My views on this whole HSR project is changing. We cant be spending so much money on a fu_cking train service. This is more money than we spend on our electronics industrialization program. That electronics buildup helps in curbing imports and increasing exports, which solves the most important problem plaguing our economy - our persistent trade deficit. This HSR ecosystem is barely gonna see any export. We should be be prioritizing our CAD over this HSR vanity. CAD causes a lot of problems for us as it depreciates our currency. Our first priority should be to solve that.

? are you slow?
Im not even going to try and explain the economic multipliers the HSR provides when built in areas with high demand. Its not worth my time and effort.
