Fri, Mar 15 2024After election it's necessarily in the interest of the nation to increase price of Petrol, Diesel and Gas by four rupees. Government need much money in the developmental work in all the spheres.

Fri, Mar 15 2024If you have not visited China , at least see some videos on you tube. In 15 years China has built 45,000 kms of high speed rail (Bullet train). ten years on India could not even finish its bullet train of 550Kms even though it is showoff project. I am not criticizing India but comparing China in infrastructure is just ignorance.
