Where it is mentioned that China will build railroad upto Birgunj / India border.

Last I knew, India had sent in proposal to built Indian broadgage from India border to Kathmandu.
China will build from China border to Kathmandu in standard gauge.
Gauge change disruption at/near Kathmandu.

Nepal's East West or Mechi-Mahakali project I suppose is standard gauge as well.

Assuming this map is the official plan & assuming this is the final alignment, it doesn't look like good planning.
1. Present-day high income cities are not well-connected. It would be better plan to connect high-income cities first like Mumbai-Pune-Bengaluru; Mumbai-Nashik-Indore-Bhopal, along with current Mumbai-Ahmedabad & Delhi-Amritsar as part of 1st phase. This makes the project financially viable and helps generating revenue to execute next phases of project.
2. Many routes like Delhi-Kolkata & Mumbai-Guwahati have numerous detours. From end-user's POV, what's the point of taking bullet train between Delhi-Kolkata that has lot of detours, when I can take a flight that costs roughly the same & takes lesser time?

Apart from Mumbai and Bengaluru no city you mentioned above comes anywhere close to Kolkata

When it comes to cities, Mumbai, which generates 6.2 percent of the national GDP leads with 16,933 millionaire households, followed by Delhi with 15,861 millionaire households.

Kolkata is home to nearly 42 percent of the 24,000 millionaires households in the state. Bengaluru comes fourth with around 7,582 millionaire households. With 4,685 millionaire households and home to 37 of the richest Indians, Chennai is at the fifth position.

Delhi-Kolkata air traffic route is the 4th most busiest route after Delhi-Mumbai , Delhi-Bangaluru and Mumbai-Bangaluru route

and I am not even counting the air traffic from Tier 2 cities like Patna and Lucknow which come in between
Kolkata airport was ranked 4th most busiest airport and Patna was Ranked 8th in 2021

I don’t have the data about Lucknow airport but it should also be among top 15
And cities like Patna , Lucknow , indore , Jaipur , Pune will also expand with time I was reading somewhere that by 2031 population of Patna Metropolitan region will cross 12 million multimodal logistic hubs have to be built in Noida , Patna and Kolkata so it will boost trade in this region as well

Agree, but the long detours proposed defeats the purpose of HSR itself.. for example for Delhi-Kolkata corridor, this detour is made so that Lucknow is connected, but as a result, Kanpur is left out. Instead, the route could have been made to run via Kanpur, avoiding detours, and instead there could have been a spur to Lucknow from Kanpur.

Another problem with this plan is that they seems to have made these proposed passenger corridors based on existing traffic patterns, counting both passenger & freight traffic!

Babaji the place (Rasuwagadhi) upto which Chinese will construct is 5 kM from Kathmandu. For a person using Nepali flag, that should have been clear.
And you are posting links from 2016.
Then it was speculated that, it can/could be extended to India border.

See updated news below.

Nepal agrees to fast-track rail connection from Kathmandu to India

Private business do flourish here- Malls, supermarkets (even in villages), auto dealerships, clothing/ jewellery stores, financial services or even IT.

Do not try anything related to manufacturing industry though, that's when the union scum starts poking their nose. Even warehousing is rather okayish.

There is this mallu brand called "Elite"
They make 10/10 egg-full cakes.
Now that is technically "manufacturing", so do union parasites bother them too or is that matter sorted with generous "gifts" by the owners of Elite?

The High Speed Rail Corridor which is being planned from Delhi to Patna should be extended to Kathmandu what do you think ?

Too much cost. I doubt RoI would be good. Also India to Kathmandu ( after Tarai) will be in mountainous region and the cost of normal railway itself would be high.
That is exactly the reason that E-W Nepal railway is in relatively plain region.

Ideally the EW should work as a header from which tapping should be made at different intervals in NS direction to Indian border in UP/ Bihar.

Lo ji abhi 3rd wave aana baaki hai. In short economy will remain fucked this year also.

Had predicted this in one of previous posts last week.

 

[RoaringTigerHiddenDragon]

Is this even a busy route to make bullet trains feasible?

This is semi HSR but even for that this route is not feasible. The three biggest tech cities - Chennai, Hyderabad and bengaluru should be connected first with a HSR/semi HSR lines in a triangular fashion. Besides this Mumbai-Delhi is viable. The rest of the routes are not viable. Railways just needs to focus on the Mumbai-Delhi industrial corridor and H-B-C triangle. And finish these ASAP. These are easily viable and will attract very competitive financing from all over the world. Finish these by 2030 on a war footing instead of wasting time drawing up plans until 2050 etc when we will all be dead or very old.

It involves the process of adequately donating to various party funds & even gifting free stuff like cakes on important occasions.... Every businessman here does it.
