Why the fuck are all these Separatist and divisive accounts from UK Canada and UK
UK backs and gives asylum to all anti India terrorist and separatist groups. There is nothing new.Why the fuck are all these Separatist and divisive accounts from UK Canada and UK
Im gujju and there are milion of gujju in mumbai not only getting employment but also creating it.People blaming me for being separatists from Uk?
“This is the map of Bombay state that was created under gujju pressure by Nehru government . You can see in the map that while other states like Rajasthan MP Karnataka Andhra Pradesh etc had been organised on linguistic lines , only Bombay was bi linguial. Why ? Clearly the gujjus had eye on Mumbai . So my wariness of their intentions is correct .”
I will hate gujjus but if anybody says against Maharashtra he is bloody separatist.
AS the corporation building the country’s first bullet train project pushes for Indian firms shouldering three-fourth of the work, Indian industry has been urged to come up with an alternative to the high-tech machines needed to construct viaducts (elevated structures) at the desired pace, which are currently made only in China. Trade with China has been affected by the border tension in eastern Ladakh.
The mega carrier and launcher machines, also known as Transporter, Gantry and Full Spam Launcher machines, are ubiquitous in China’s large-scale connectivity projects. Typically, a vehicle carrying a full girder travels on an already launched girder to place the next girder under this technology. The speed is almost seven times that of the girder launching mechanism commonly used in India — while one-and-a-half girders are placed in a week with this, the Chinese machines enable two girders a day.
Each machine costs around Rs 70-80 crore. The bullet train project will need up to 30 such machines, Achal Khare, Managing Director of the National High Speed Rail Corporation (NHSRL), said.
“If we are to build 237 km in four years, there is no other way except to use this technique. But these carrier-and-launcher machines are manufactured in China. So this is one of the challenges which we have posed to the industry, including L&T (which is building 325 km of a high-speed viaduct in Gujarat) and the academicians, that why can’t we develop them rather than importing them from China?” Khare told a meeting of the industry body. The Indian industry doesn’t have any experience of building high-speed rail systems.
Procuring these machines was common earlier. “I guess people here never needed to apply their minds to make them because they were available cheap in China. Now we are telling people to try and design them, let’s be self reliant. It’s not like Indian engineers cannot make it,” Khare told The Indian Express, adding that given the current “situation” and the government’s emphasis on Aatmanirbhar Bharat, it was unlikely anyone would get these machines from China. “I think people will try to develop these machines here, and that is good. How else will we become self-reliant?”
Khare acknowledged that the machines are “no joke”. “They are vehicles capable of carrying loads of 1000 tonnes-plus. Currently, girders are carried by road in little segments.” Noting that even Japan, which is helping India with the bullet train project, had not designed such machines, Khare said China came up with them over its construction of 25,000 km of high-speed rail.
Similarly, the NHSRCL has asked the Ahmedabad Textile Research Institute to work on developing upholstery similar to the fire-retardant one used in Japan’s high-speed Shinkansen system. “They say that even if you pour petrol on the upholstery and set it on fire, it will not propagate. We cannot be dependent on Japan forever for this,” Khare said.
Besides, at the behest of the NHSRCL, several IITs are making simulation software for electrical systems etc which are currently the sole domain of foreign consultants engaged in railway and other such projects. Engineering institutes and the industry have also been asked to study ballastless track, to replicate the Shinkansen technology.
The NHSRCL plans to hire management professionals and send them on secondment to JR East, which runs the Shinkansen, so that they learn how the system is managed and come back and replicate that “culture” in India.
In the latest understanding reached with the Japanese side, India is to carry out around 75% of the construction for the project through Indian firms. Typically, in projects of such a scale, around Rs 80,000-90,000 crore worth of contracts, mostly in civil construction and even track-laying, would go to Indian companies. The bullet train project, without normal inflation factored in from 2015, is estimated at Rs 1.08 lakh crore.
The NHSRCL has told Indian contractors to ensure that their staff, from rail-welding technicians to engineers, motor car operators and supervisors, get trained and certified by a reputed Japanese agency. The training sessions can last from a few days to 125 days, and the cost has to be borne by the contractors.
The project is facing delays as land acquisition is progressing at a snail’s pace in Maharashtra and there are pending issues with the Japanese. However, the portion in Gujarat has picked up pace with three contracts awarded for design and construction. While the Railways insists the project is still on time for the December 2023 deadline, sources said they are staring at a completion date of December 2028.
Man, it will be so amazing if we could achieve the timeline of 2023. Also, do we have anything similar to Golden Quadrilateral but for high-speed rail network? Is it economically viable?Indian Bullet train's first pictures arrive! Check here

Hope they will get funding for full fledged prototype development.RRCAT (Indore) scientists develop model of Maglev Train which runs at 600kmph

India is moving forward with its second Bullet train project after Mumbai-Ahmedabad High Speed train corridor. From Friday, 12th March, LiDAR or Light Detection and Ranging survey started for the proposed High Speed Rail Corridor between Mumbai and Nagpur. It will be part of the Detailed Project Report or DPR. India’s proposed second bullet train project will pass through cities in Maharshtra like Shahapur, Igatpuri, Nashik, Mehkar, Malegaon, Pulgaon, Wardha and Khapri and will be 736-km long, PTI said quoting a release by the National High Speed Rail Corporation Ltd (NHSRCL). The LiDar technology used in the survey expedites the process and the survey with all the data is expected to be finished in just 3-4 months against 10-12 months taken usually for such work, it said.

Indian Railways eyes 7 more bullet train corridors; all will be open to PPP investmentsLiDAR surveys are done by using state-of-the-art technology in which aerial LiDAR and imagery sensors are fitted over an aeroplane and the airborne devises capture the data related to ground survey. High-power 100 megapixel cameras are used in the LiDAR technlogy to get a clear picture of the surrounding structures, trees and other minute ground details and topography.
NHSRCL has proposals to conduct these surveys and prepare the DPR for seven High Speed Rail Corridors in India. Apart from Mumbai-Nagpur, other proposed Bullet train projects are 459 kilometres long Delhi-Amritsar corridor, Varanasi-Howrah corridor, 865 kilometres long Delhi-Varanasi corridor, Delhi-Ahmedabad corridor, 711 kilometres long Mumbai-Hyderabad corridor and 435 kilometres long Chennai-Mysore corridor. Last year, the Railway Board Chairman and CEO, Vinod Kumar Yadav said that these seven new Bullet train projects will completed using the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model.
India’s first Ahmedabad-Mumbai Bullet Train corridor is going to be 508 km long and is based on Japan’s E5 Shinkansen technology. Modi govt’s ambitious railway project will boast speeds of over 300 km per hour.
I don't understand ,what is the plan , us the mumbai nagpur corridor Maharashtra government project .India’s Second Bullet Train Project: Survey begins for high-speed train corridor between these cities

Per capita income and forex reserves will be even higher till other projects start. Ahmedabad-Mumbai corridor is indeed on priority and Maharashtra government is deliberately trying to divert funds for project to other lines to somehow delay or stall project.I don't understand ,what is the plan , us the mumbai nagpur corridor Maharashtra government project .
And the delhi Varanasi is also in works ,so which one will be prioritized .
We are looking at seven project , with so less per capita income ,how will they wlbe economical
