New lines and some diesel lines will take 15-20 years for electficiation so I think new factory of Diesel locomotive is not a big problem as the govt official also know the facts

Yes, D-Loco will be needed in future but there is already DLW and few other establishments to manufacture them. We are self sufficient even now.
And in future when their need is less, why do we need a foreign collaboration in manufacturing something that we have in plenty and are capable of manufacturing ourselves.
