It's not load factor, but capacity factor. Solar / wind plants have low values capacity factor compared to thermal plants.

Either it's "World' largest" or "World Class". It's a nice way to fool common folks, that's why they do it.

This is ICF design manufactured by BEML. The two versions you're talking will be out next year.

Railways and highways are world class :pound:

In Egypt, I saw huge expressways but also an apartment building partially collapsing after a spell of torrential rain. It's a weird place. One thing we can learn from them is how to manage international tourists.

This is a completely different issue. That's why NMIA is being built to reduce the congestion. Still, T2 is relatively better compared to the crowds at Delhi T3 or Kolkata. To transfer from Bangalore T2 to T1, you need to come outside and take a shuttle bus (just like Delhi and Mumbai). Still...

He's talking about T2, the international terminal. The old T1 (used by Indigo, Spicejet, etc) is a bus stand. I flew from Mumbai T2 just last month. Everything you said is completely blown out of proportion. Look, I agree that our maintenance is poor compared to more developed countries, but...

Mumbai T2 is arguably the best airport in India, wtf are you saying? You're comparing T2 to a railway station? Do you even know what a railway station looks like here? Bangalore T2 maybe seem better as it's new and shiny, but only time will tell how good it's service actually is. And Delhi T3...

A new organisation made for building/operating railways will always have deputations from IR. From where else will they find the relevant employees with the required skillset? IR babus/officers are after all extremely good technically. Only that the organisation is rotten. That's why DMRC is so...

During inauguration, Modi took all the credit and his ministers even claimed that the entire project was funded by Central govt. https://www.indiatvnews.com/news/india/pragati-maidan-tunnel-delhi-govt-refused-its-share-of-funds-pm-modi-centre-borne-entire-cost-2022-06-19-785804 So, now it's...

These are a part of Amrit Bharat Station redevelopment scheme, so I expect better design and quality. During Habibganj, they didn't have any proper standards and experimented randomly. In 2023, IR standardised all signages and basic design, so the new redeveloped stations will be better.

Forget tunnels, just by looking at the design of the roads, you can conclude that the project design was substandard: You can observe the same substandard and dangerous design issues in our expressways.

Mr. Mani has correctly exposed this BS. You can't magically convert a 1950s obsolete dabba to VB, period. What they'll do is wrap some orange vinyls on the body and call it something. Just like "utkrisht".

https://swarajyamag.com/infrastructure/mumbai-urban-transport-project-centre-drops-two-key-suburban-rail-connectivity-lines-to-navi-mumbai Apart from this, IR keeps delaying installation of CBTC on existing suburban lines. Since 2019, they're saying that "IR is working on indigenous CBTC...

Maharashtra SG cannot trust IR baboos to do any upgrades, so they're building on their own. Just see how IR (read CG) is delaying MUTP-3a for years (because these upgrades won't make headlines).

Sikkim is also extremely clean. Pawjeet means of transportation like auto rickshaws are banned there.

USBRL design speed is 100 km/hr.

This is the chart one needs to follow for HSR. So, Delhi - Mumbai has the potential of being equivalent to Beijing - Shanghai route. For longer routes, high speed sleeper services will be extremely popular. Imagine leaving Delhi at night and reaching Mumbai/Bangalore/Kolkata early in the...
