Gadkari shared the footage of RSLive.Jamshedpur-Ranchi expressway.
Just to give a local context, this is a normal 4 lane highway getting built from 2011 i guess or even earlier. It is not an expressway by any means. But yes, it is very well constructed no doubts about that. There were talks of an expressway, but in Jharkhand talks remain talks.Jamshedpur-Ranchi expressway.
You would think they would not put a picture of a collapsed bridge to say thisInfrastructure Revolution: Fuelling India's Economic Growth towards 2047
By building sustainable and modern infrastructure that can match that of any developed country, particularly through advanced transportation networks, including roads, railways, ports, and airports, India intends to accomplish the overall goal of over 8% growth, in future.
Already there are 12 major ports and over 200 non-major ports in the country, along the 7,500-km long coastline. Vadhavan Port in Maharashtra, which is under construction, would be the 13th major port in India.
That's common sense off course.You would think they would not put a picture of a collapsed bridge to say this
This bridge is built by BSRDC and not NHAI.You would think they would not put a picture of a collapsed bridge to say this
and interestingly, don't get the same feeling when a news channel reports on same topic.Delhi NCR wallahs will be happy with this channel.
This video should actually be a insult for all 1.4 billion indians and should result in mass ly*nching of our local government babus/mlas. It shows that they are able to build basic consistent infrastructure, but choose not to. The lane markings, signages, road land width and surface etc are all consistent and likely meet IRC specifications. The roads look very clean as there is no rubbish or dust on the side of the road. So why cant they actually do this for the rest of the country/city?Delhi NCR wallahs will be happy with this channel.
Yes, the local governments can do a lot more to keep the cities clean. But there is nothing anybody can do if "people" are not responsible. I have seen in Bengaluru where on one side the cleaning crew will be pretending to be cleaning. At the same time, people will be throwing away trash on the street, even though there were trash cans were 20 steps away. I have seen people rolling down their car windows and trashing their own streets. I have seen video where foreigners carrying the trash in their hands and locals advising them to throw it on the street. They even laugh at foreigners carrying trash in their hands.This video should actually be a insult for all 1.4 billion indians and should result in mass ly*nching of our local government babus/mlas.

Not at all, all areas except the downtown are getting shittier day by day.Delhi NCR wallahs will be happy with this channel.
We will be needing a dedicated centrally funded project to fix urban infra on the lines of Swacch Bharat or Namami Gange. States/local corporations just cannot do it. It was a mistake to decentralize governance anyway; European ideas at income level marginally higher than that of Korea did not make any sense back then and does not make any sense even now - we are now spending vauable resources to bypass them (case in point PMGSY, PMAY, Namami Gange etc) . Smart City missions are being allocated higher amounts progressively but still peanuts compared to NIP.Not at all, all areas except the downtown are getting shittier day by day.
Ya'll Nibbiars Hope the recent bill will rectify this.Not at all, all areas except the downtown are getting shittier day by day.
No denying Indians are one of the filthiest race currently for the reasons you mentioned, but what you said just sounds like excuses. Its the same nonsense Indian leftists/congressis were claiming before 2014 - that streetshitting in india is cultural etc etc. Cities wont turn into Japan overnight, but if Indian cities invested in garbage disposal and incineration systems and employed a sizable workforce of street sweepers using mechanized garbage trucks and cleaners + employing maybe street justice with danda against those caught littering, our cities will look much cleaner and presentable in 1 year. It is pathetic how filthy indian cities look compared to other cities worldwide with the same GDP per capita.Yes, the local governments can do a lot more to keep the cities clean.

Even Modi couldn't bring the cleanliness mindset to the society.
This is because keeping roads and footpaths clean and up to standards requires machines in a large way. Footpaths need to be constructed with machines and not with masons like it is done now. All that takes fuel and money. also, in many Delhi areas, streets are so narrow that no cleaning machine can get in there. the density: Unauthorized colonies have led to massive overpopulation with the shittiest infra in these areas. Also, there is a lot of construction in Delhi and construction dust is everywhere. Too much mud on the streets, even on expressways. As Delhi finishes all its construction, dust and mud on streets should decrease.This video should actually be a insult for all 1.4 billion indians and should result in mass ly*nching of our local government babus/mlas.
