India is not ready for bullet train yet. We should focus mostly on revamping our existing infrastructure to support exiting trains at ~180-200 kmph speed. And activating small airfields around smaller towns for cheaper and faster connectivity.
First the whole of India said "bullet train lao modiji" . Now that he has got it , they are saying "kyu lae modiji is gareeb desh main".
Haha people in India are such losers.
LoL... didn't make any sense.
and about the petrol hikes!!! when is the gov going to allow the people to reap the benefits ?? the crude prices are atlease 50% lower in the international market instead of reducing the price why the gov increasing it??
First you guys start filing your taxes honestly.... rest will happen automatically....
Suppose you want to stop at Surat and then go to Ahmedabad. You can't do that in a plane.Bro.. but do you think its going to be a success??? the fares are going tobe somewhere betwenn 3.5-5 k for one way.
why would anyone want to travel by train when cheaper and quicker option available via air ??
That's the problem with India, we are never ready. We will never be. So, it's better to move forward and other things to come along rather than waiting and rectifying the error then delay the necessary development further.India is not ready for bullet train yet.

Japanese is giving Bullet Train Technology & money at 0.1% Interest Rate which can be paid in 50 YEARS TIME. IT'S ALMOST FREE.
Govt. is already working on improvement of British Railways System. Both can be done Parellel.
Bye.
@anant_s bhai can you shed some light on it.

A plane landing and take off takes nearly 1 hour at source and at destination. In airport alone. Check in, check out, security check, customs etc... Although I don't know exact time to reach Mumbai-Ahmedabad via flight and compare it to bullet train.
I had enough domestic flight, I'm pretty sure it wasn't a walk in walk out. Sometimes delayed more than hour on the tarmac, exhausted. If there was a bullet train, I would gladly take it over flight.Bro... that might happen to some one very rarely.
and you don't have to spend long time in a airport for a domestic flight.
If you ask, then you can say similar thing about our space program. We started our space program when nearly 80% of our people were poor. Even though it costs hundreds of millions of rupees we continue with the project. At the end, we ourselves enjoy the fruits.A 19 billion USD project in India with rail road infra not in good condition, makes it a bit extravagant project, need to make the rail infra safe(keeping in mind the high accident rate) in India.
Start with metros. For Pakistan it's more or less easy. It's not too populous like India. Cities are somewhat planned.I have written umpteenth times in Pak media against the BRTS in Lhr/Isb and Multan, specially about the elevated corridors and supported normal public buses in larger numbers should have been running on existing roads...
Will Bullet train help India leapfrog into the league of Japan, or in the comity of Germany...highly unlikely.
Also as written by me elsewhere...developed nations make Bullet trains...a Bullet train doesn't make a nation developed. It is a gradual and slow process...

Like the space program argument. Developed nation do space programs, not poor nation.
I don't think you would agree to that.
