It’s surprisingly many points are missed by Sir. 1. The EDFC and WFDC are planned in 2003 and mostly funded by Japan. We took 20 years to complete it. The idea was to facilitate Japanese firm mainly Suzuki in Gurgaon. 2. Sir missed the recent opening of Krishapatnam port rail line and planned railway line to link Vijhinam and already made Kochi ports. 3. North India train density is 2-3 times compare to south due to high density population of indo gangetic. 4. It’s easy to draw line on map but vijaywada to kochi line will be as challenging as konkan railway and will be 3 times more coastly. Let Railway earn something first. When Delhi metro started in 2003 it doesn’t mean metro were not planned later for southern cities. BTW Mumbai was last many year after Hyderabad, Chennai, Bangalore and kochi. It requires expertise and financial support. Amravathi city is the classic example when a rare well funded projects go to drain with sort sighted govts.Same for bullet train in Maharastra.

An Example in EU, 1) from Paris to Rome a 1500 km long distance train with 1 or 2 changes takes say 11-12 hours 2) from Paris to Naples a 1750 km long distance train with 1 or 2 changes takes say 12-13 hours. 3) Any longest distance intercity trains in China or Japan. I'm expecting HIGHSPEED TRAINS from say New Delhi to Chennnai(say 2000 km) in travel time of 14-15 hour or Kanyakumari(2600-2700kms ?) covered in under 18-20 hours travel time as minimum. If the average speeds can be made to 250 or 300 or 350 kmph then the travel times can be even more drastically reduced Make a comparative video and about by when will India achieve this. As we know these were already achieved by EU, Japan, etc , 10-15 years ago, and China as well. INDONESIA is now operating 350 kmph high-speed trains.

@@unknown.m.e The ports are international standard. They can't handle large ships due to the ocean depth not being deep enough. And they aren't building normal roads, they are building express ways to make transportation quicker and more reliable. Also they are building them all the way to Kashmir and even in the North East, they didn't have proper roads for years, that's not the case for South India. In the end we should all be happy to see all of India getting developed in some or the other form.

Indian region of North, East, Northeast and Center are traditionally concidered poor and backword, have more population then resources, along with landlocked geography without having any ports, poor Road infrastructure, also this part has lesser economic development and literacy rates as well as GDP, whereas Western and Southern parts of nation Traditionally and historically had strong economy, sea ports for business and higher literacy rates and GDP and comparatively good Road infrastructure, so they are considered as developed states, possibly this is the reason why Dedicated Freight Corridor is located more focused in the area of Northern, Eastern and Northwestern parts of India

[@thespiderguy3515]

Making dfc in southern part is very hard because of geography . Southern part is rich because of ports and fright policy.Otherwise, the way Tamil Nadu and Karnataka are distributing freebies, If these states were in the North, they would have been ruined by now.

[@kanakTheGold]

Also, southern cities have grown 4-0 times in last 20 years and infra is crumbled, not same as early 2000's. We need atleast half of Tax we generate, we deserve it.

Mangalore - Goa - Panvel ( Konkan Railway) Doubling project should be Sanctioned. It is important for the development of Coastal Maharastra and Coastal Karnataka Region. Unlike East Coast which is well developed West Coast must also be developed.

[@wazir1404]

We should have total connectivity between north and south . Dedicated frigate corridor from south to north.

[@krish_telugu]

Thanks for bringing up this, south has longer coastline yet due to lack of leaders representing south we always get ignored, yet we get taxed high... We need better infrastructure funded by center

[@gc95915]

What would be most profitable is a DFC connecting Chennai, Bangalore, Pune and Mumbai. An industrial corridor is already being developed between these cities. An expressway is also coming up linking these cities, along the industrial corridor.

DFC is not needee in south ,because passengers train movement is not obstructed by goods train to the extent it is obstructed in other regions 😮

Mumbai city’s 3 airport Double support to Vadhavan port, Dahanu & JNPT. Chances are bright for Much needed Dapchari, Palghar international Airport (passenger+ cargo) due to constantly heavy growing passenger air traffic . Benefits as below -will uplift the Palghar & immediate nearby regions immensely. -local employment boost & international tourist flowing (covering natural Beauty of Palghar areas)will be heavily benefitted . -Air Traffic spreading and will be supporting directly Vadhavan port and JNPT (under your 1 hr drive from Dapchari to Vadhavan port).(interlinked and interconnected) -Locals of Many states can avoid traveling till Mumbai. Savings on wallet and time. ( mid point or center point) -Well connected to Mumbai Delhi expressway,Mumbai Ahmedabad main highway NH 48 .& Bullet train passing route.

South India has a multitude of MAJOR PORT PROJECTS currently running which under Sagarmala Project. The total capacity of Indian ports has increased from 10.3 million in 2014 to 13.7 million in 2023. 1,537 projects with an outlay at ₹6.5 lakh crore are currently running under Sagarmala. It is only fair that North India and Central India are given priority in Dedicated Freight Corridor project. Also North India is much poorer than South and really needs investment to reduce poverty. As a Keralite, I support giving priority to North India so that they can atleast some what catch up to South.

[@preetam2004]

no one is against giving priority but i am against giving complete priority if only north india is not developed than why always first priority is given to gujarat and nighbouring developed state south india is developed that not means there is no problem in south india atleast 20 to 30 percent focus should also given to south to for there development process but the way centra is behaving towards south it is completely neglecting south india which also leading to the slow development in south to which is not just affecting south india it is also affecting india

[@casnub5484]

I agree, but with that many ports it only makes more sense to promote freight by rail if not a full fledged DFC, as that will help bring down Carbon footprint by bounds

​@@techdyan8500 South and north are already separated as different states, so do you mean separating from India itself? You must really believe that the south is full of radical thinkers like you. Let me tell you that you're quite disconnected from the reality. People in the south would throw extremists like you into jail before even thinking of separating from India.
