If you ever see the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.travelkhana.com\/travelkhana\/indian-railways-time-table\" target=\"_blank\">irctc train schedule<\/a>, you will find that the Indian railway network operates hundreds of trains daily and carries thousands of passengers. However, India is now looking forward to its next big train project, i.e. the bullet train<br \/>\nRecently when the Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe visited India, a joint statement made by him and PM Modi announced the country&#8217;s first ever bullet train that will connect two of the most popular commercial cities in India, namely Mumbai and Ahmedabad.<br \/>\nInitially, the bullet train was proposed to run in 6 different routes, namely Delhi to Amritsar, Patna to Delhi, Mumbai to Ahmedabad, Hyderabad to Chennai, Howrah to haldia and Cheenai to Ernakulum. However, it was only the Mumbai Ahmedabad route which cleared the feasibility test. All the rest were rejected.<br \/>\nSeveral people have asked why the government wants to spend crores of rupees on a bullet train when the condition of the existing railway network is already quite pitiable. This is because a large amount for the train is being given by Japan. This is not because Japan sees India as a developing country, which needs monetary help from other countries. This is because Japan&#8217;s bullet train technology. This it becomes quite natural that putting this money to use into any other project would be a waste.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.travelkhana.com\/rail-info\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2015\/12\/TH10_CHINA_HIGH_SP_1390388f.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1465\" src=\"http:\/\/www.travelkhana.com\/rail-info\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2015\/12\/TH10_CHINA_HIGH_SP_1390388f.jpg\" alt=\"TH10_CHINA_HIGH_SP_1390388f\" width=\"636\" height=\"513\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nThis is how the bullet train is going to help the country \u2013<br \/>\nCurrently, there are over 70 trains which run daily from Mumbai to Ahmedabad and vice versa. This route has the busiest rail traffic in the country.<br \/>\nThe route sees the most number of business travellers. This is because it links India\u2019s two top commercial centres Ahmedabad and Mumbai. The bullet train will be a relief to many daily travellers.<br \/>\nThe route crosses many major commercial cities such as Baroda, Anand and also the very important city of Surat. Surat is the world\u2019s largest diamond polishing and cutting centre and also it is India&#8217;s largest textile centre. Thus, you can see how this project will be a blessing to all these commercial centres.<br \/>\nAlso, this project is a part of the Mumbai Delhi industrial Corridor, which means a lot of investment and also employment will be boosted in this sector.<br \/>\nAnd as you all may already know, the Mumbai to Ahmedabad route has a flat terrain. The entire land is nearly at sea level, which will make the construction of the rail network much easy if compared to other terrains up north or down south.<br \/>\nHence, we can see that a lot of sectors in the country will greatly benefit from the Ahmedabad Mumbai bullet train project. It would be foolish to pay heed to naysayers and let this sweet deal from Japan slip from our hands. This project will also help India to become technologically more advanced and will generate a lot of jobs and other prospects. So, are you ready to welcome the bullet train?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Indian Railways is a large rail network.
