$350bn bid by 'Team India' for Afghan iron ore deposits.

China's annual iron ore imports from India.
It is shows that China needs iron ore, not India.

You drink too much coffee... not good for health.

Yep... right now China needs more steel and it is importing from outside, but as India builds up its infrastructure, we will need more steel for our local markets and will export processed steel as well. You will need to find other sources for your steel plants.

 

[twoplustwoisfour]

Are you sure that India need iron ore? Could you tell me how many iron ore India's annual imports?

India is a net exporter of Iron Ore and a net importer of processed Iron and steel.

u indians do ur bid waste ur money there,,and our babies hikmatyar and haqqani will take care or u,,,,

If Team india throws couple of millions to TTP, They will keep busy entire pakistan.

Indians are sure getting cheeky with each passing day

Thats what we thought about the LTTE and the Kachin rebels, in the end they did sting us.

It was just in jest to a Pakistani poster.

BTW it was Rajiv's mistake of disowning the path laid by his mother and going ahead with Operation Pawan that brought the LTTE into TN with its suicide bombs.

You're optimistic. Optimists are always very happy.

Afghanistan is producing iron ore, not Iron and steel.

If you do not understand Chinese characters, you can use the translator.

Siemens just got the contract, the locomotives is made in China. Siemens put the contract outsourcing to China Southern Locomotive Company.
And you will get a number of new locomotives in November 2011, China and India have signed the contract in June 22, 2010.

India exported 322 MT iron ore to China: Steel Minister - Business News - News - MSN India 03/03/2011

New Delhi, Mar 3 (PTI) India exported about 322.02 million tonnes of iron ore, the vital steel making raw material, to China between 2005-06 to 2009-10, the Parliament was informed today.

"This includes iron ore exports of 87.02 million tonnes (MT) to China in 2009-10," Steel Minister Beni Prasad Verma said in a written reply to the Rajya Sabha.

Quoting the data of Directorate General of Commercial Intelligence and Statistics (DGCI&S), the Steel Minister said that India''s iron ore exports to China has increased from 2007-08 onwards, when the total exports was at 58.95 MT.

Subsequently, the iron-ore exports to China in 2008-09 was at 63.34 MT and it increased by 37.38 per cent in 2009-10 to 87.02 MT, Verma said.

Replying to a separate question, the Steel Minister added that the government has increased the export duty on iron ore to 20 per cent from March 1 on all sorts of iron ore (other than pellets).
Talking about the Indian steel sector, Verma said that domestic companies currently have a production capacity of about 78 MT of the metal alloy and between April to December, 2010, the total production was estimated at 51.57 MT.

This is for the Gurgaon Metro not the Delhi metro. Delhi Metro is by Bombardier and Hyundai Rotem.

Chinese firm to produce low-carbon subway trains for India | TradingMarkets.com

I think he meant this instead.

 

[BigTree.CN]

Indian members are right, Chinese companies are manufacturing trains for subway linking Delhi and satellite city Gurgaon.

Under the deal, the Chinese supplier would hand over the first train in November 2011, and the other four trains were expected to be finished before March 2012, said Han.
The trains would go into service on the route linking New Delhi and satellite city Gurgaon. The trains, each with three carriages, were exclusively developed by China and designed to be energy-saving with less noise and electromagnetic emissions, he said

Apparently there are several subways under construction in India, and we fail to differentiate one from another.

No you not right at all. The Chinese manufatured rolling stock is for this.
