Budget and maintenance LOL?

When I was a kid, several such things were set up in districts around Chandigarh. Couldn't even maintain for 2 years and all that years sucks like streets and public infra of old Delhi today.
That is also important too. Municipalities need to do better usage fee taxes & property tax collections to pay for these things.

Even building a mini-monorail like the one in Mumbai, most probably SkyTran which they acquired last year.

I really wish all such projects in hills should use maximum via ducts and minimum blasting and tunnels. I know its cost prohibitive. But shall lessen burden on hills.
Well when India is a richer country and Kashmir finally pulls up her pants and carries her own weight and start supporting such infrastructure projects, we can go for these kind of things. Otherwise, we do with what we have and can afford.

Bhai Kashmir is getting all that. Its poor H Jammu, HP, UK and NE left out of such wonders. As I said India rewards those who are obstinate.

That project is literally USBRL (Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramullah Rail Link), connects Baramullah to rest of India. Going to Jammu from Chandigarh is much easier than it is to Much of Kashmir. Jammu has proximity to rest of our country, Kashmir does not.

No doubt about. I am just mentioning the kind of infra push Kashmir has seen, wish other hilly regions also see. Just check number rail projects and tunnel projects are going on IN Kashmir and compare it with Jammu, Hp or UK or even NE. HP, UK and NE too desperately need much more investment. But I think Govt has kashmir as first priority. Well people of other (than kashmir)region can wait more - question is will chinese wait?

Municipalities are brutally underfunded for building the kind of cities we are expecting. They barely had even a budget before 2000s. And whatever comes, a significant portion of it is eaten up in corruption AFAIK.

A richer India will not magically solve it.
Only pushing Indian industries and settling more population is a solution to Kashmir.
