Haldi, you are too polite on Twitter. Many of the armchair highway engineers you have politely engaged with won't be able to draw a fucking free body diagram. Just look at the fucking audacity of this exfart; Only online e-lynching can cure these arrogant pricks.

Dharavi is not Asia's largest slum tho. https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/9288134/worlds-largest-slum-four-million-people-squalid-shacks-manila/ In fact, there are paki slums larger in terms of both area and population. @FalconSlayers

Is there any plan to integrate Mumbai Monorail with the upcoming metro lines? Any future extension programme in the pipeline? @Haldilal

Land acquisition status?

INC only pretended to be 'centrist'; they were (and continue to be; barring maybe PVNR's tenure) a left socialist party in practice. The Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee led commie govt of Bengal, post Jyoti Bose era, did attempt genuine liberalization and industrialization - especially after emerging...

Bengal has never had a centrist/right of centre state govt; the commies were textbook left and the incumbent TMC is even further left biased. Nobody knows how a non left party, if eleceted at all, will perform - there is no precedent.

To make an economic cluster in the east, you need Kolkata to flourish - only then the chain reaction would commence. There is just no other way. NITI Aayog made a very detailed study on it; I will link it if I can find it online...

Eh? I see Kolkata here. https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/swachh-survekshan-rankings-2023-these-are-the-10-dirtiest-indian-cities/articleshow/106729720.cms?from=mdr

They have been sleeping on the Gurugram metro as well.

Maha is planning a similar pan state rrts network, no? @Haldilal

A few metro rail systems opted for cheap cheeni rakes (cheenis were price dumping to destroy domestic ecosystem) years back (when BEML were only getting started, Titagarh was not even in the picture and nobody trusted ICF). Much of those commitments are already delivered; whatever little...

The way GoI calculates our urban population is pretty fucked up. Don't trust those official figures.

You don't really need to post racist cartoons to make your points either; do you?

A lot of posters here have never taken a train abroad hence they tend to exaggerate. In Germany (true for European railway systems in general) you have this (Germans themselves make jokes on it): https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1-VcTkmXEXQ Also, those horrific clips (depicting cheeni trains)...

Even if a particular train ever looks as depicted in that racist cartoon drawn by that pakistan born scumbag it will simply not leave the platforms. There are certain protocols to be followed before a loco pilot decides to leave a station. No need to exaggerate by quote Tweeting literal Jihadis.

If you are constructing on the Himalayas no amount of safety checking would suffice sometimes.

The rumour is that Adani has been told to behave and put their house in order by the PMO higher-ups (the PM himself?); they don't want uncertainty in markets. In fact, there are reports detailing how Adani is looking to exit a few businesses altogether (Adani Wilmar being one of them) and raise...

They shd replace the entirety of MRTS with metro; but apparently GoI and the CMRL have not yet reached a consensus on the financial aspects.
