LOL...you know, if you wanna be more real, Indians are everywhere.
Karachi chose Circular Railways over metro and lahore chose metro bus which is much cheaper thn metro and gets the job done by providing cheap transport service not bad considering we are in a war and our economical position.
what do you want to prove with these pics?? Dhaka looks like a developed town with few glass claded buildings but infrastructure is not enough to be called as capital city.
edit : Not Needed..thread is about BD
GDP of Bangladesh 110 bn USD
GDP of Calcutta 104 bn USD
This is the city where so many pole vaulters slum together. Why don't you develop the infrastructure and economy of your poor city so that we have less illegals in our cities??
Congratulations Bangladesh. Keep it up. Metro is a must for public transportation for any decent sized city. Around the world any city (with few exceptions) worth a name has a metro system. So Bangladesh should not be behind.
P.S. And now please stop comparing Dhaka with any other India city. The truth is that Dhaka can't even compare with any Tier II city of India forget about comparing with Kolkatta (which is a tier one city). Spend the next 10 years building your city and then we will see with which Tier II Indian city you can compare.
Those are outdated stats. Bangladesh GDP in nominal is about $150bn.There is Chittagong Circular Railway under-construction and expected to be operational by this March. Dhaka, besides the metro rail, will also get Bus Rapid Transit, the deal is already signed and the construction is going to start this July.
Well, have heard it 100 times from some self proclaimed geniuses, but 110bn is actually the GDP of Bangladesh in nominal terms, in PPP terms it is about 290bn USD, and the GDP which you stated for Kolkata is in PPP terms, the GDP of Bangladesh is higher than not only Kolkata but the entire W Bengal, where the GDP of the latter stands at almost half of that of Bangladesh.
The Statistics Bureau of Bangladesh don't really count city based economies but a calculation by UN reported that Dhaka had a GDP of 78bn in 2008 and was growing at 6.4%, no wonder the growth rate has accelerated and the GDP should be more than 100bn now.
Realistically, Dhaka is just behind Mumbai and Delhi!!
