Delhi metro new rolling stock
since there is high demand for metro's in India, I don't understand that why are we importing them? Isn't it better for govt to incentivize industry to create factories here .

Each mini-van may serve as a full-fledged Police Station with a detachment of upto 12 'beat' bikers. Need to deploy 1'st class cloud based unified communications platforms, verification and documentation software for legal proceedings and operators to work it with optimal throughput.
Get a few down drones, CCTV everything and Hyderabad Police could be a role model for others.

If anything, they should put uniformed, well-equipped, part-time guards for each bogie for rush hr. mgmt. as well and retain a full time driver and conductor. Delhi's metro crowd is unruly just beneath the surface.
That's for the newbie public's peace of mind. And local metro coaches pls. Good for morale.
Also, extend 24 hrs. services. Globalisation is turning Indian mega cities into many faceted, Globalised workplaces catering to multiple time zones. The govt. must act as an enabler and facilitator by making 24 hr. public transport mandatory.
24 hr.'s public service's will bring in more revenue, expand the 3-shift work culture, enable a bottoms-up expansion of the IT, BPO and related Globalised workforce. It will relieve otherwise 9-5 pressure points and bottlenecks during normal working hrs. Time for a wake-up call!

4 Reasons to Worry About Pakistan’s Latest Political Crisis
Nawaz Sharif scored a resounding victory in Pakistan’s national elections in May 2013.
Just 15 months later, his government is fighting for its life.
Thousands of protesters are converging on Pakistan’s capital. Their leaders–cricketer-turned-opposition politician Imran Khan and Canada-based cleric Tahir ul-Qadri–have vowed not to leave Islamabad until the government steps down.
Now, anti-government marches are common in Pakistan; one took place as recently as June. And crowd numbers to date are far from the hundreds of thousands organizers had promised. Pakistan’s all-powerful military is also unlikely to use this protest as a pretext for a putsch; it has little interest in being saddled with the country’s unprecedented governance challenges.
But there are still good reasons to be concerned.
First, no one appears willing to back down. On Tuesday, Prime Minister Sharif–whose constant tussles with the military illustrate how he relishes a good political fight–announced that a Supreme Court commission would investigate allegations of election rigging, an accusation that Mr. Khan has made repeatedly since last year’s voting. But Mr. Sharif refuses to make any further concessions. Meanwhile, Mr. Qadri and Mr. Khan insist that the marchers will stay in Islamabad indefinitely, and Mr. Khan has rejected a government offer of dialogue. A Pakistani high court ruled this week that extended protests will not be permitted, which could set the stage for battles between security forces and marchers.
Second, the only thing that’s certain is uncertainty. It’s not clear how long demonstrators will attempt to stay and how the government will respond if marchers refuse to disperse. Other than categorical calls for the government’s ouster and new elections, the marcher’ intentions are vague. And the key personalities are unpredictable: Mr. Qadri vacillates between projecting himself as a man of peace and engaging in folksy talk (he says he prefers Tim Hortons coffee to Starbucks) to issuing fiery calls for revolution. Some of his supporters have reportedly resorted to violence.
