Is the Bullet train network a beneficial proposition for India.

As each and every thing contains both aspects, advantages or disadvantages in it. So, this also

has both aspects, but I think it is beneficial for India a lot and India should go for this

development.

It will be beneficial for the people of Indians in various ways like -

1. High-speed connectivity - The bullet train running between Ahmedabad and Mumbai will

cover the distance of 508 km within two to three hours. The project is supposed to connect

bustling economic corridors in the states of Gujarat and Maharashtra. This will facilitate

economic growth. Smaller cities along the way can also be connected with high-speed transit

facility to these economic centres through the bullet train network.

2. Employment - The bullet train project will bring speed and employment, PM Modi said during

its inauguration. The bullet train project is expected to create 4,000 direct job opportunities,

along with 20,000 indirect jobs. 20,000 construction workers will also be employed during the

set up period of Ahmedabad-Mumbai bullet train.

3. Urban expansion - New bullet train stations set to come up along the route will attract urban

growth. This will again shift the pressure of urbanisation from the existing urban centres.

4. Open new avenues - When completed, the Ahmedabad-Mumbai bullet train project will

present as a favourable destination for high-speed train technologies, attracting other parties

working in the field.
