One of the most useless dream project of railways and politicians. Rather than spending a huge amount of momey they should construct the quadruple electric electric line btwn these cities which would be more beneficiary.the exisiting 1A fare of shatabdi is nearly 1800 then what would be the cost of tkt for bullet train??
If bullet trin goes with 300 kmph than also it would take 1:45-2 hrs to complete journey .
where as flight takes 45 minutes with its cheap fare ranging 900-1600
than
...
more...
who will pay more for this dream train ?
