bulbul Posted May 25, 2014 Posted May 25, 2014 My post was supposed to be a general point and not one attacking one particular party' date=' that's why i said govt after govt has ignored our demand. I agreed with your last post, what you said was true to a large extent. That's why i did not object to your last post. I remember joking and complaining about siddu and kharge sometime back which all of you don't remember.[/quote'] It's not about agree or disagree. Plan for bullet train & Normal train in Bangalore are not co related, they are totally different. It can be still done, Metro construction is going on hope they make it faster. Hope Modi govt inspect every major infrastructure project across major cities, irrespective of which party runs state govt.
Crookbond Posted May 25, 2014 Posted May 25, 2014 The go from followed by a bunch to rhetoric that most of MSM of India is tom-toming like a stuck broken record and after he won the election... They tone down this rhetoric to one of hope. Why couldn't they have believed in hope earlier instead of harping on Godhra like everybody else? Agree that on the "muslim" angle they still want him to utter the word "upliftment of minorities" like everybody else are harping about. I don't see why should do it when he is saying "upliftment of poor"! If you read the earlier article, it clearly says Modi will be good to India economically. Not a good thing to quote selectively.

But they want to build new infrastructure and introduce bullet trains. I see a problem in that approach.
Crookbond Posted May 25, 2014 Posted May 25, 2014 The Economist now even has Modi's pic on their twitter account :rofl: Arrey bhaiyya, Modi is on the front page of the Economist which is a weekly newspaper. Hence, the cover photo - expect it to change to the cover of the next graph/organization/person in the next week.
bulbul Posted May 25, 2014 Posted May 25, 2014 The govt refuses to run commuter rail on existing tracks. But they want to build new infrastructure and introduce bullet trains. I see a problem in that approach. Again,which govt refused that? also you know who was Railway minister. By the way I don't think they are going to run Bullet trains on existing rails across country, no way they are going to stand it.
Crookbond Posted May 25, 2014 Posted May 25, 2014 Kiran Bedi @thekiranbedi May 24 (Full Marks) @RudraSharma13: #Modi approves First Mumbai Ahmedabad Bullet train corridor, to run at 320kmph.Team sent to France for study Good. Heard some more corridors will start in parallel. What study? The Pune-Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train corridor pre-feasibility study is already concluded and they have decided to drop the Pune-Mumbai route due to it. IIRC, the bullet train project was announced when Lalu was the rail minister ... kid you not! http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/mumbai/Mumbai-Ahmedabad-high-speed-corridor-proposed-via-Thane/articleshow/29379878.cms

By the way I don't think they are going to run Bullet trains on existing rails across country, no way they are going to stand it. I said commuter rail can be run on existing tracks, not bullet train. Yes Kharge and siddu had could have done it but they didn't, god knows why. Kar govt says the decision is now to be taken by the central govt and they have done everything they could. All i can reason is they want to keep the city crowded which will increase the price for basic resources like water, land, rent and keep a lot of rich powerful people happy. They can also use the crowded city as an excuse to introduce huge infrastructure projects which will make the thieves in bangalore really really rich. And every MP who runs from bangalore including ananthu keeps promising us commuter rail before every election but none deliver.

Texan Posted May 26, 2014 Posted May 26, 2014 Sip NaMo tea at Mani Shankar Aiyar tea stall VADODARA: When Narendra Modi is sworn-in as Prime Minister on Monday, hot cups of NaMo tea will be given for free at a tea stall in Vadodara. Nothing irregular about that, except it's called Mani Shankar Aiyar tea stall. This is after the Congress leader Aiyar, whose throwaway line that Modi could sell tea at Congress's Talkatora session in January created much more than a tempest in a teapot, apart from dire consequences for the Congress. Along with NaMo chai at the Aiyar tea stall, people would also be able to relish falafel - a West Asian dish of deep-fried patty made from ground chickpeas. The Aiyar tea stall will be inaugurated on Faramji Road behind the railway station as soon as Modi's swearing-in ceremony begins. "Modi has been an inspiring figure, who comes from humble origin but today holds the country's top post through sheer hard work. It is a matter of pride for us that Modi contested from Vadodara and won with a very huge margin. So, we decided to sell tea as a tribute to Modi's achievements," said Nikitin Contractor, who runs a community college in Sayajigunj. Contractor said they named the stall as Mani Shankar Aiyar stall as the Congress leader had derided Modi by calling him a tea vendor and proclaimed that he won't ever become prime minister. "We kept the stall after his name as it is the best reply to politicians like Aiyar," Contractor said. All passers-by will be given free tea and falafel. "Modi made a great gesture by talking with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and seeking deep ties with Israel. We've decided to distribute falafel to mark the beginning of warm ties between India and Israel. We hope both countries will work together for a better future," said Contractor, who is convener of Friends of Israel organization in Vadodara. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/home/lok-sabha-elections-2014/news/Sip-NaMo-tea-at-Mani-Shankar-Aiyar-tea-stall/articleshow/35612368.cms
