At 810 km, India overtakes Japan in length of metro rail projects: Union minister Puri

Key Figures March'23​

  • Operational Routes: 833.028 km
  • Under Construction on existing Routes: 678.36 km
  • Planned on existing Routes: 1,273.769 km
  • Under Construction on New Routes: 185.71 km
  • Planned on New Routes: 1,163.955 km
We should be able to get to 1700KMs in near future and around 2400KMs under planning in New Routes. So we would be having close to 4000KMs if all the planned routes are approved. Even if most of them are not approved, I am sure we will cross 2500KMs of metro for sure!!

I don't think India can overtake China ever in lenth of metro rail. Bcz both nations has similar population but China has more area than India.
But Im pretty confident to overtake USA soon.

Step by step.

I think India one day will be great as well.

Everything needs time.

文革之後,中國改革開放,逐步崛起,應了《推背圖》第44象的推演。不過,第44象的卦象為「未濟」卦,預示中國的崛起將不會一帆風順。所以,緊接着的第45象推演說,中國實現崛起之前,將遭遇一場戰爭。讖語說:「有客西來,至東而止。木火金水,洗此大恥。」頌詩說:「炎運宏開世界同,金烏隱匿白洋中。從此不敢稱雄長,兵氣全銷運已終。」金聖嘆批注說:「此象於太平之世復見兵戎,當在海洋之上,自此之後,更臻盛世矣。」有學者據此推演,21世紀中日必有一戰;而中國將打敗日本,雪洗百年恥辱。讖語「木火金水」這一句,五行缺土,預示未來的中日之戰,將因領土之爭而起。過去百餘年間,日本曾發動兩場侵華戰爭。近年中日衝突再度激化;日本正在重新武装,修改和平憲法;兩國在東海和釣魚島的爭端,將演變為戰爭。

不過,苗元一另有解讀。他認為,第45象主卦是山水蒙卦;山水蒙卦上面有一艮,艮在東北;下面有一坎,坎代表戰爭;所以東北亞將發生戰爭。此象的圖畫是兩個軍人手握長矛,騰空而起。所以這場戰爭將以空戰為主。讖語「木火金水」,代表核武器;亥屬水,木加水即為「核」;火金則是武器。朝核問題將成為這場戰爭的導火線。戰爭可能在未來10年內爆發。中、美、俄、日和南北韓,都將捲入。經過這一戰,中國將成為真正的超級大國。
古今中外,各種預測學層出不窮,各擅勝場。但即使在科技高度發達的今天,要準確預測未來也極其困難。站在科學主義立場來看,《推背圖》不過是古代讖緯之學的餘緒,缺乏科學根據。不過,科學並不能解釋所有問題;像國運預測這種學問,即非經驗科學所能勝任,這就為《推背圖》這類預言書留下了英雄用武之地。

This excludes RRTS and Suburban metros as well as MetroLites (which may become a reality in future).

Metro km numbers doesn't reflect the whole urban railway system. There are many urban/suburb railways in Japan can be counted as Metro systems. Tokyo metropolitan area has more than 3000 kms of metro and railway lines for daily commuters.
New developed countries prefer underground and overground railways, those counted as Metro. South Korea for example, has more such lines than Japan. China doesn't have suburb railways in the history. National railway is not focused to build those lines. So cities build those long metro lines function as suburb railways. That's why some lines have maximum speed of 160km/h.
In my opinion, the lines served as commuter rail ( the interval less than 15 minutes) should also counted in Metro. The name Metro comes from metropolitan railway.

Who told you that crap?

Which part is the crap?

Which line has 100 years history and functions as commuter line today?
How many such lines in total? Zero!
The first true suburb railway today is Shanghai Jinshan line which opened in 2012。the second line is Changsha -zhuzhou-xiangtai line opened in 2016.
So you are saying China has history and tradition of suburb railway system? Here I am talking about Metro style frequency and ticketing system railway.

You know nothing about China, do you? right next to where I live is Beijing west railway station, the trains from here goes to Changping and Yanqing districts for a hundred years, I rode it to The Great Wall when I was a little child. Chinese cities have so many those lines, you are really ignorant.

This is not the suburb railway I am talking about. The Metro style suburb railways are Paris RER, Beilin S Bhan or Tokyo Yamanote Line (山手线) with frequency of at least every 5-15 minutes or less.
Beijing -zhangjiaokou railway line is just a regular main railway line has less than 10 suburb trains a day. Not the concept of suburb railway for mass transport.
You are very rude. I am trying to discuss with you but apparently you need more knowledge.
Beijing will have the first real suburb railway line : northeast railway. It uses the existing northeast ring railway and add 2nd track and more stations. It will be operated as Metro fashion with very high frequency and integrated ticking system with Beijing Metro.

We know what suburbs lines are cause we ride them all the time, how many times do you ride them, right next to where I live, we have line 13 and Changping line


As for suburb railways, in the 1960's all distant districts in Beijing were connected by suburb railways, later in the history were replaced by city subways, you surely know nothing aobut China, just talk about a country you have no idea about through your hat.
