Some Indian projects that has or can change the fate of India and Indians economically and socially are 1. Delhi metro 2. Chenab Bridge (Tallest rail bridge in the world) 3. Kaleswaram lift Irrigation Project ( largest in Asia) 4. Largest integrated drip irrigation project in the world (Hungund, Karnataka) 5. Mumbai metro 6. Delhi Mumbai Expressway (longest 8 lane expressway in the world ) 7. Dedicated freight corridor project 8. Indian HSR system 9. Navi Mumbai airport 10. GIFT city project 11. India's metro revolution with 15 cities now having metro . Kanpur metro has the record of fastest metro project ever constructed
Small correction, Delhi Mumbai expressway is the longest expressway in India. The longest expressway in the world is the Beijing-Urumqi Expressway in China...
Looking at India, it feels like it is going to have infrastructure boom similar to China, might not necessarily be of the scale and speed of China, but one that will script a wonderful story in the early 21st century of Asia.
unlikely, I live in India, search up the political troubles regarding our first bullet train, it is connecting two state capitals Mumbai and Ahemdabad, the state of Gujarat where Ahemdabad lies has acquired almost 100% of the required land, while Maharashtra where Mumbai lies has acquired even less than 70% and this project has been going on since 2019, you might think it's some random issues, it's actually because the government in state of Gujarat is the same as India's central government (same political party) but Maharashtra's government is made most off by the opposition party, and that's why they have delayed project worth 20 billion almost, same issues with Mumbai metro being delayed and a new massive cargo port being delayed, all due to poltical games, this fucking democracy is a massive speedbump in infrastructure construction something that China doesn't have to face as it owns most of the country's land, as a matter of fact if you search, most infrastructure projects that have been stuck in India have been because of land acquisition delays that go on fucking decades edit: 70% in Maharashtra as of January 2022
For such a small sum! India knows how to care. And when they're able to go online with everything (not just internet) . . . Sharing with India is a right thing to do.
@@averyshaw2142 3 years ago it took more than 3 hours to go from Delhi to Meerut by road. Since 2020, a new expressway was opened, now it takes 1 hr 30 min. RRTS will further reduce the transit time.
I was born in this city in 2000s and a lot of development has took place in the delhi metro the number of new stations and lines has exploded one line is even being built front of my house it will open around 2023 you can see RRTS are also being built if you travel from highway
Bullet trains coming up. A whole network..that will make long distances short. Looking forward to that. And,the new smart cities. Which will be well planned ,green ,clean. In twenty years,there will be a new India
Only $US4bil for 82km of track, and was it 16 stations? Wow. that same length track in Western countries would cost $20-$40bil. It will sure help the business case with what I hope will be reasonable ticket prices.
Delhi was already a massive city 1200 years ago and many historic buildings were made in a random unplanned manner , this is by far the biggest challenge old Delhi faces .
There's virtually nothing that remains apart from tourist forts that are reminiscent of unplanned architecture, which is also not true, as different cities popped up in the area we call Delhi serving different time periods. In the past 100 years on the other hand, when development in Delhi actually started the gross mismanagement of resources, the almost idiotic takes on sharing power between a government elected by the entire country and a government elected by the people of Delhi have led to the current unplanned city design.
Old Delhi is literally like 5% of Delhi's total Land area (yet most of the footage representing Delhi is from there) Most of modern day Delhi was developed in 1970s amd 80s, while New Delhi was developed in 1930s
@@riderchallenge4250 no one calls hap hazard planning planning. Compare with the rest of the cities of the world and we'll see where we stand. The aim is to surpass New York, Barcelona, Hong Kong in terms of city planning. Not Bangalore or Mumbai.
Wish people would invest more also in cutting their anger. A lot of angry (while at the same time 'religious') people in & from India causing havoc within their families.
Another impressive project for the people of India. I am an American who is very impressed with the projects being built across India. From irrigation to flood control, power and transportation, Indian engineers and companies have stepped up efforts to lead the way to bring a better more efficient future to the entire country. Well done, India!
We had congress ruling in India since our independence in 1947 except for five years between 1999-2004. They were good for nothing. They couldn't built enough toilets in country in 7 decades. Thanks to the current government which is ruling since 2014. Common Indians can see the changes in last 8 years. Not only sanitation problem is solved but also infrastructure is improving in every sector.
@@AmitKumar-nq7wk Only an uniformed person can spew such comment. People born in delhi know moving industries outside Delhi by creating Noida (an actual smart city unlike boasted 0/100 by current regime) as well as Infra setup from Dwarka to east delhi connectivity happened under Shiela dixit era. All i hear from bjp bastion a lot of boastful talk which can be easily digested and further spread by their followers.
Seriously, it took atleast 3-4 hrs to cover that 80 km stretch between Delhi and Meerut until a few years ago. Apart from that the usual gargantuan traffic within both these cities could consume your whole day. Though now the situation has completely changed and is expected to only improve in the near future
Delhi's connectivity with its immediate neighbours is atrocious. This project was truly needed, it also lessens the population burden on Delhi as a lot of cities will now effectively be in commuting distance so workers wouldn't necessarily have to find a place to live in Delhi
Completely agree , workers and employees from meerut can reach Delhi in an hour that will make them do up and down from meerut and there's is no need from them to stay and rent a house in Delhi.
Eventually they’ll still have to find a place to live in Delhi because the land value will rise and force more locals out of the city. It will become more desirable to live in Delhi over time. Edit: In other words, people think projects like this in underdeveloped countries are great for the people living near them, but the reality is that with those huge infrastructure investments, the education requirement increases, and more people are rendered obsolete because they don't have education proportional to the skills required to support a growing economy. The caste system will be silently reinforced even though it was outlawed, and this "good" that is being done is only "good" for the government's interests. Rail is not like roadway/highway systems. Roadway systems allow for flexible growth and mobility. Rail is a huge investment and bet that people will move and stay close to those systems. That will compound the impact on the lower class and possibly push them into oblivion. Rising taxes, rising rents, rising property tax.
@@mi12no Ultimately nothing will work unless population growth is sharply reduced. In the meantime, rail provides much more bang for the buck than more roads with standing traffic.
@@mi12no Umm, no. Railroads help the the lower middle classes and working poor, more than anyone else. Transportation costs become absolutely predictable; they know how much a monthly pass will cost them, and that price seldom changes. That means fluctuations in fuel prices don't impact them, directly; they don't have to worry about auto maintenance or new tires; no cars mean no auto insurance (Is that a thing, in India?), and they never face sudden and unexpected expenses due to breakdowns or accidents. The time and the price of the commute to and from work becomes *absolutely predictable*, and that means people can plan for it and not ever have to worry about unexpected transportation expenses. That's a huge burden lifted from the backs of those who work the hardest, for the least.
Be it railways, airways, roadways, digital platform etc infrastructure is improving in all these sectors. Common people are noticing these changes. Thats how Modi and BJP are hacking EVMs.
This is brilliant! As an infrastructure nerd (like everyone else) I truly believe that government transport infrastructure projects can change peoples lives in the way they work, giving people more time in the day and improving people's health and well being.
this project is literally life changing for many people, many people from meerut comes to delhi for work daily, like lakhs of them, for them its will be literally a god given gift since it ticket cost 60rupee and other modes cost more then 100rupee, 40% cut in transport, and this may be used for better edu of kids.
Imagine having a 4000 year old city with 20 million people, and no high rises. Yes problems will arise, and the only way to proceed is by going vertical.
The government has had a major focus on infrastructure projects in the country. With operational metro lines in 15 cities, while 20 more cities will be added in the coming years. The current record of 40km of roads constructed everyday in the country as well as the construction of 7 high speed train lines (350kmph) connecting the major cities. Lots of growth expected and infrastructure is the way forward.
Being in delhi from early days 2004 to now. The metro rail have transformed it a lot. 10 years back the metro line used to serve up a much lesser area and was not that popular. Cut to now almost all of Delhi is covered by metro and the residual area can be easily reached by feeder services like erickshaw. In very rare cases the area is completely inaccessible by metro. The place where I live has now three metro lines within 4km range and one within a km range.
As someone living in Ghaziabad who’s daily commute involves the Meerut Road (along which the RRTS is being built) I can confirm that the work is going along nicely! I really do hope that it won’t just be for Meerut commuters and there’d be more closely distanced stations when it reaches Ghaziabad, as getting from the residential to the industrial part of the city still takes upto 45 minutes on a bad day.

This is really good news as I am a strong advocate for mass transit. As an aside, people talk about how great the railways in Europe and Japan are, but hardly ever mention India's vast, extensive rail system. I have many fond memories of traveling via rail as a child with my family.
Well Indian railway system is indeed vast and extensive, but I wouldn’t say they’re even close to the standards of European and Japanese railway system lol. It’s a good thing that Delhi and other major Indian cities are upgrading the standards of their railway system though.
Nobody talks about Indian rails because Indian rails are not impressive in the slightest. It's going to take decades for India to reach an infrastructure level that China hit like 8 years ago.
Railway system in United States is also vast and extensive but we all know that it is only good for cargo, not for passengers You can't really compare it to Japan, China or Europe but I'm happy that India is working on its network
India is building the most number of Metro systems atm in the world. And each one has atleast 3 phases. Delhi has 400kms of total network and soon Mumbai will have a network of 280kms.
Btw, a big chunk of Delhi's pollution problem is also due to it's location, being trapped by Himalayan Range in the North and Deccan Plateau in the south, and having Thar in the left. Air doesn't get circulated well over there.
Just returned from Delhi yesterday. And the lack of major public transit system connecting it to the surrounding areas was one of the major issues I had to face. It was quite tough, to get a train that would reach fast or connect between bus travels. Hopefully this will solve the issue.✨
I wish them the best. Originally being from Japan, we had similar issues once upon a time - except we had trains that were utterly sardine-packed. It's a lot better now thankfully - even the crowds on the trains are generally more manageable than before.
@@TheB1M Can never be too much ;) I don’t think there’s anywhere in the world with as much future economic potential AND as much need for infrastructure as India.
@@Cotswolds1913 Thanks for acknowledging the potential of India. Most Westerners only trash talk about our country. By the Way, are you from the USA? Nice to see your interest in India's infrastructure.
@@vega21985 More than welcome. Yes unfortunately there are some stigmas, especially for older people here, who tend to picture an India from the 1980s and just don’t understand what has been taking place in the country over the last decades.

It's cool to see how infrastructure improves around the world. Living in Switzerland, I've been spoiled with excellent public transport and I think public transport will solve a lot of the pollution in Delhi. All the motorcycles and rikshas take a lot of space and they are never as efficient as one train per hundreds of people.
Delhi's metro is already spanning 375+km and daily ridership around 5mn. It has more stations than london tube and still this network is expanding. By the end of 2022 it's going to be 450km network. Delhi metro has ridership more than london tube.

@@ericdanielski4802 The water from the rivers and other water bodies are pumped to farther distances where water is scarce! This requires massive canals, reservoirs, pumps.
I was actually shocked when i first used the Delhi metro, it was clean, efficient, most people kept to the rules, a completely different world compared to the buses and rickshaws, although half the fun as a tourist, is walking the dusty and loud streets of Delhi. In most part though the infrastructure in India, is utterly horrendous, an outdated railway system left by the British, is in desperate need of some TLC. I hope in the not too distant future, the railways of India can be similar to that, of the Shinkansen in Japan. What a world of difference it would make, even if they started with Delhi to Mumbai, Chennai, Bangalore or Varanasi.
You predicted the future , indian government already passed 2-3 lines and working on atleast more 5 line of , shinkensen based bullet train system , 1st line is under development ,2nd line Delhi to varansi is also in starting phase 🤓

This project passes just a kilometer away from my home and believe me, it is astonishing to find the speed of construction being so good in India. I won't be surprised if it will be built even before its due date. I live in Ghaziabad, Delhi NCR.
I am an Indian who left to US in 2011 to work hard and to make some money. I thought my country will always be subtle and it certainly was.

If I can come back invest and provide jobs to people gives me that satisfaction I am open to move back. Love you India ❤️
delhi metro is very good. This new train is for inter city not intra city. Also the colour coordination is due to unlettered people from villages coming to the capital . A illiterate person can identify colors not letters.
Delhi Metro runs only within the city limits of 1483 sq km. This RRTS (Regional Rapid Transit System) connects Delhi with other towns and cities within the National Capital Region (NCR). NCR is huge and is spread across an area of more than 55000 sq km.
Bengaluru Heavily building metros,Bridges But it takes time. On the other side Current government in Mumbai moving the project slowly many get cancelled thanks to environmentalists,Wokes
Not possible in Mumbai at all because 1. Highly congested city even more than delhi(example:mumbai metro 🚇 haven't been completed till today) 2.sea touching city with many problems for construction like soil, weather and erosion and all 3.already existing City railway 4.lack of political will as opposition in state and central Edit: 5.overly woke, over-educated, anti-development and Messiahs Of environment people(mostly south bombay) and NGOs(funded by western wokes and liberals like soros and Greta and all)...

Indias best cities in actual are 2 tier cities like Chandigarh, Indore, Kochi, Mangalore, Visage etc. Megacities comes with lots of challenges and at same time extreme events like Climate Change also impact them most.
@@padhlekyakarrhahaituyahanp1011 Kolkata is really lagging in terms of infrastructure compared to other tier 1 cities. The current state govt which is against development and industrialization also doesn't help
Fun fact, even though Delhi's air quality is bizarre, the city is one of the greenest in the country and all types of public transport run on CNG. A big chunk of the pollution comes from private vehicles running on oil.
The air quality is much better now. One rain settles all the pollution and dust..but the congestion on roads canbe avoided by having trams or long rail like buses.
It is the problematic topography of Delhi that allows the air (or pollution) to keep circulating --for a longer time than usual -- in a trough/ funnel, surrounded by Himalayas, Thar and Deccan.
This is a lot like the Gautrain rapid rail system between Johannesburg and Pretoria in Gauteng Province, South Africa. Currently it is also one line of about 80km but there are plans to hugely expand the network over the next 10 to 20 years.
Mega-cities like Delhi need to integrate regional transit and subway transit with priority bus lanes and surface rail trolley systems. Efficient bus and trolley systems have proven to reduce traffic and pollution substantially. Unfortunately these "last mile" transportation systems are often neglected in regional and city transit plans in favor of splashier and more eye catching projects.
You are wrong Delhi's metro is one of the most world leading metro. Well established and high capacity and has EV busses for public transport. This RRTS project is for the people who commute from other states out side Delhi who are daily employees.
@@TheVenge. You didn't understand what he was saying. He's saying that you also need good public transport connections between the RRTS and the final destination (or the starting location and the RRTS).
I live in Delhi, I absolutely love your video's. But, there are some inconsistent information in this video, Delhi actually has the best public transport system in India, Chennai comes a close second. Delhi's metro is modern and well planned, connecting every part of the city and NCR areas such as Noida (Industrial area) and Gurgaon (IT city). Only recently NCR, got expanded and the project aims to tackle urban transport for the future. Sarai Kale Khan inter state bus terminal is currently not that much used, but has metro connectivity through Nizamuddin station. I have been to several metro networks in the world, but I feel Delhi metro has been excellent for the price it's being offered to.
@@daredevil30000 the government in Mumbai at present is not the bjp - which is more infra focused. In three years they will elect the bjp and keep pace with the rest of India.
What I like about this is the simple effectiveness. No fancy maglevs, just tried and tested wheels-on-rails, connecting key satellite cities. We want more stuff like this. A change I would like to see in Delhi is making it more pedestrian friendly, especially in the tourist heavy places like Old Delhi, where narrow streets anyway prevent movement of cars.
This sounds crazy, but I was literally researching high speed rails in different countries all last night. If enough countries make them, they should be able to connect and create a mega system around different continents. A world high speed rail could be possible soon after
Wouldn't that be great? In theory you could travel from anywhere in the UK to Delhi, or ever Bangkok (and the other way around), without ever having to fly or drive!
Nope. In long distances the plane is better always. High speed rail is better for regional trips or intercity trips, otherwise is better to take a plane and is cheaper and for inner city travel is better the local transit.
There's not much need for people to move across such distances anymore, other than tourism. And many travel destinations are such small places that they'll never get any high-speed rail. Also, even at a VERY high speed of 300 km/h you'd still be traveling at 1/3 speed of a plane.
In *Uttar* *Pradesh* :- NOIDA Lucknow kanpur The other metro projects Agra Metro, Meerut Metro, Varanasi Metro, Prayagraj Metro, Gorakhpur Metro and Jhansi Metro.

About to take off from Delhi back to the US, some 20+ years after my last visit. Traffic and pollution was so bad I barely went outside other than the 2-minute walk from the hotel to office. Great to see the plans for a cleaner, quicker transport system taking shape. Thanks for another informative video.
Pollution is inevitable in a developing country. Every country from UK, US to China suffered during industrialization. If you can't bear the pollution, don't visit
@@Chopper153 I didn't mean my comment to come across as insulting - apologies for that. My point is that India and other developing countries can largely avoid the toxic route to prosperity of the past as renewables are now the cheapest form of energy. My visit was to support a project to accelerate the transition to clean energy, and reduced pollution, in South Asia.
I live in Duhai just beside this RRTS project - and Man o man - the construction is all over the place , day and night - excited to be in this revolutionary train
I don't know why but I just feel so excited when someone, especially one of my favourite youtuber, uploads a video on India. Nice video, covered all aspects of the project in short amount of time.
Foreigner - $4 Billion. So Cheap. Indian Inside Me - They could have made it even cheaper. After all, 3400km long (Mumbai-Delhi, Amritsar- Calcutta) Modern, Double stack, Electric, heavy, broad gauge, Dedicated freight Corridor is being built in just $12 Billion.
I recently visited Delhi and it was my first encounter with the metro. Wow. The journey was smooth, and I feel like this type of transportation should be more popular. The whole experience was great. A country like India has to make its public transportation more reliable like the metro.
May I just point out that the research done for making this video is incredible. I Think you covered all the facts. The shoots are amazing especially the one "The drone shot of the Mosque". Also earlier I was little skeptical about this project but your video convinced me that this might be a problem solver instead of just an heavy expense. Good Work!!!

India has made massive infrastructure development over past few years under the current government. And within a decade you will see India as a new economic powerhouse.

Proud to be a Delhite, We have free Bus Transport for woman, free Electricity, Free public Wifi, Free Water supply, World class movement schools, Amazing food its amazing to live in delhi
The freebies are what is killing Delhi. And Delhiites are too dumb to understand that the Government should have spent that same amount of money on building even more infrastructure instead of doling out freebies. Do you have any idea how many TODs could have been developed with that kind of money? Redevelopment on that scale would have transformed the city. But as usual, politicians make a fool out of the people by this stupid "freebies for votes" schemes. Glad I got out of Delhi when I had the chance. Wouldn't want to fall chronically ill due to that pollution.
India is at the centre of global growth now. A neat & excellent connectivity within the cities & towards outskirts &;remote areas are vital for further growth. This massive project also seems to contribute towards air pollution. reduction
I am living in new Delhi, the traffic is unimaginable to outsider, there is no footpath Or cycle track in most of the place, so if you complain your traffic in your city, stop complaining and just be grateful or come experience Delhi traffic.

you should cover Delhi Mumbai expressway, its an entry controlled expressway and the scale and speed at which it is being built is astonishing! As Indian we are surprised when we see changes every week
I live in Austin where we are about to start building a several new lines for our metro rail system... but the projected cost is over $10 billion, and not nearly as comprehensive or transformative as this one. There will be some new subterranean sections but most of it will be street level. I wish were were building elevated section like this one in Delhi. Anyhow Mr B1M maybe on a slow content day you can do a video about Austin's new rail system.
It's not metro rail system which only build to transport within a city, These regional transit rails are for transport even in nearby cities from one state to another.

unlikely, I live in India, search up the political troubles regarding our first bullet train, it is connecting two state capitals Mumbai and Ahemdabad, the state of Gujarat where Ahemdabad lies has acquired almost 100% of the required land, while Maharashtra where Mumbai lies has acquired even less than 70% and this project has been going on since 2019, you might think it's some random issues, it's actually because the government in state of Gujarat is the same as India's central government (same political party) but Maharashtra's government is made most off by the opposition party, and that's why they have delayed project worth 20 billion almost, same issues with Mumbai metro being delayed and a new massive cargo port being delayed, all due to poltical games, this fucking democracy is a massive speedbump in infrastructure construction something that China doesn't have to face as it owns most of the country's land, as a matter of fact if you search, most infrastructure projects that have been stuck in India have been because of land acquisition delays that go on fucking decades

Delhi was already a massive city 1200 years ago and many historic buildings were made in a random unplanned manner , this is by far the biggest challenge old Delhi faces .
There's virtually nothing that remains apart from tourist forts that are reminiscent of unplanned architecture, which is also not true, as different cities popped up in the area we call Delhi serving different time periods. In the past 100 years on the other hand, when development in Delhi actually started the gross mismanagement of resources, the almost idiotic takes on sharing power between a government elected by the entire country and a government elected by the people of Delhi have led to the current unplanned city design.

Seriously, it took atleast 3-4 hrs to cover that 80 km stretch between Delhi and Meerut until a few years ago.
Apart from that the usual gargantuan traffic within both these cities could consume your whole day.
Though now the situation has completely changed and is expected to only improve in the near future
I did it in about 1 hour 20 ish during lockdown 🤙 questionable driving maybe there too
Yes when the expressway was not built..there were massive traffic jams...but now we can reach meerut in 1-1;30 min
The rrtc is passing through my village and everything is developed now !
If you use China high-speed rail, 80/300=0.27h×60=16.2m
Delhi's connectivity with its immediate neighbours is atrocious. This project was truly needed, it also lessens the population burden on Delhi as a lot of cities will now effectively be in commuting distance so workers wouldn't necessarily have to find a place to live in Delhi
Completely agree , workers and employees from meerut can reach Delhi in an hour that will make them do up and down from meerut and there's is no need from them to stay and rent a house in Delhi.
Eventually they’ll still have to find a place to live in Delhi because the land value will rise and force more locals out of the city. It will become more desirable to live in Delhi over time.
Edit: In other words, people think projects like this in underdeveloped countries are great for the people living near them, but the reality is that with those huge infrastructure investments, the education requirement increases, and more people are rendered obsolete because they don't have education proportional to the skills required to support a growing economy.
The caste system will be silently reinforced even though it was outlawed, and this "good" that is being done is only "good" for the government's interests.
Rail is not like roadway/highway systems. Roadway systems allow for flexible growth and mobility. Rail is a huge investment and bet that people will move and stay close to those systems. That will compound the impact on the lower class and possibly push them into oblivion. Rising taxes, rising rents, rising property tax.
@@mi12no Ultimately nothing will work unless population growth is sharply reduced. In the meantime, rail provides much more bang for the buck than more roads with standing traffic.

@@mi12no Umm, no.
Railroads help the the lower middle classes and working poor, more than anyone else.
Transportation costs become absolutely predictable; they know how much a monthly pass will cost them, and that price seldom changes.
That means fluctuations in fuel prices don't impact them, directly; they don't have to worry about auto maintenance or new tires; no cars mean no auto insurance (Is that a thing, in India?), and they never face sudden and unexpected expenses due to breakdowns or accidents.
The time and the price of the commute to and from work becomes *absolutely predictable*, and that means people can plan for it and not ever have to worry about unexpected transportation expenses.
That's a huge burden lifted from the backs of those who work the hardest, for the least.

The government has had a major focus on infrastructure projects in the country. With operational metro lines in 15 cities, while 20 more cities will be added in the coming years. The current record of 40km of roads constructed everyday in the country as well as the construction of 7 high speed train lines (350kmph) connecting the major cities. Lots of growth expected and infrastructure is the way forward.
Well, India is spending 1.5 trillion dollars in next 3-4 years on Infrastructure alone.

I am waiting for the day to bet on rrts just to see it, i hope one delhi one card can be used on it.
Being in delhi from early days 2004 to now. The metro rail have transformed it a lot.
10 years back the metro line used to serve up a much lesser area and was not that popular.
Cut to now almost all of Delhi is covered by metro and the residual area can be easily reached by feeder services like erickshaw. In very rare cases the area is completely inaccessible by metro.

Fun fact, even though Delhi's air quality is bizarre, the city is one of the greenest in the country and all types of public transport run on CNG. A big chunk of the pollution comes from private vehicles running on oil.
The air quality is much better now. One rain settles all the pollution and dust..but the congestion on roads canbe avoided by having trams or long rail like buses.
It is the problematic topography of Delhi that allows the air (or pollution) to keep circulating --for a longer time than usual -- in a trough/ funnel, surrounded by Himalayas, Thar and Deccan.
This is a lot like the Gautrain rapid rail system between Johannesburg and Pretoria in Gauteng Province, South Africa. Currently it is also one line of about 80km but there are plans to hugely expand the network over the next 10 to 20 years.

Mega-cities like Delhi need to integrate regional transit and subway transit with priority bus lanes and surface rail trolley systems.

This sounds crazy, but I was literally researching high speed rails in different countries all last night. If enough countries make them, they should be able to connect and create a mega system around different continents. A world high speed rail could be possible soon after
Wouldn't that be great? In theory you could travel from anywhere in the UK to Delhi, or ever Bangkok (and the other way around), without ever having to fly or drive!
Then Snowpiercer could some day become a reality.
Nope. In long distances the plane is better always. High speed rail is better for regional trips or intercity trips, otherwise is better to take a plane and is cheaper and for inner city travel is better the local transit.
Why high speed rail when hyperloop project is in the pipeline!
There's not much need for people to move across such distances anymore, other than tourism. And many travel destinations are such small places that they'll never get any high-speed rail. Also, even at a VERY high speed of 300 km/h you'd still be traveling at 1/3 speed of a plane.

There are tons of big infrastructure projects going on in India, hope to see more videos like these, Cheers!
80% pollution is due to stubble burning in November, of course Lutyens media and NGT will hide this.
If this train line is going to make a difference, the capacity is going to have to be extraordinary. Delhi is huge!
My favorite video channel for construction B1M has dropped a video about my country India...what else do I need to complete the day...always Hats off B1M....
About to take off from Delhi back to the US, some 20+ years after my last visit. Traffic and pollution was so bad I barely went outside other than the 2-minute walk from the hotel to office. Great to see the plans for a cleaner, quicker transport system taking shape. Thanks for another informative video.
Hope to see u again :)
U can visit Uttarakand, North East India (especially Meghalaya, Tripura) and South India too
Pollution is inevitable in a developing country. Every country from UK, US to China suffered during industrialization. If you can't bear the pollution, don't visit
@@flyingdragon6275 I managed to visit a friend in Chennai - loved it.
@@Chopper153 I didn't mean my comment to come across as insulting - apologies for that. My point is that India and other developing countries can largely avoid the toxic route to prosperity of the past as renewables are now the cheapest form of energy. My visit was to support a project to accelerate the transition to clean energy, and reduced pollution, in South Asia.
@@mtiedemann11 hes some jobless guy. Please dont mind him
I live in Duhai just beside this RRTS project - and Man o man - the construction is all over the place , day and night - excited to be in this revolutionary train
Ayy Finally !! It's been months since you covered any Indian Topic
I don't know why but I just feel so excited when someone, especially one of my favourite youtuber, uploads a video on India.
Nice video, covered all aspects of the project in short amount of time.
Love this channel, from India!!
Good to see videos about our country at international level.
Foreigner - $4 Billion. So Cheap.
Indian Inside Me - They could have made it even cheaper.
After all, 3400km long (Mumbai-Delhi, Amritsar- Calcutta) Modern, Double stack, Electric, heavy, broad gauge, Dedicated freight Corridor is being built in just $12 Billion.
I recently visited Delhi and it was my first encounter with the metro. Wow. The journey was smooth, and I feel like this type of transportation should be more popular. The whole experience was great. A country like India has to make its public transportation more reliable like the metro.
First of all change your Headline.. London is the most polluted city not Delhi !!
The fact that this are verified but none seems to care
@@nandagopalm7232 London is also a polluted city but they would never use these lines for that !!
@@gauravkalra4 exactly. These guys just like to carry their propaganda. Let's see till how long they carry it
When it comes to NYC , they will show Lower Manhattan, but when it comes to Mumbai they will go to Dharavi Slums and won’t go to Lower Parel
May I just point out that the research done for making this video is incredible. I Think you covered all the facts. The shoots are amazing especially the one "The drone shot of the Mosque". Also earlier I was little skeptical about this project but your video convinced me that this might be a problem solver instead of just an heavy expense. Good Work!!!
sad to see sickulars like u loving the structures where jehadys plan for Ghazwa e Hind
HAHA bjp doesn't give a damn to people like you that's why this project is progressing fast even when many activists like you are skeptical.
My engineering college falls in between this transit system, earlier it was highly congested & undeveloped now this underdeveloped place will touch it's great developing phase, thanks to the hardworking engineers & workers 👍🏼
I hope it meets the expectations
India has made massive infrastructure development over past few years under the current government. And within a decade you will see India as a new economic powerhouse.
Entre a éste canal para saber porqué su líder está en primer lugar de aceptación entre sus ciudadanos, saludos desde México!!!❤️👍🇲🇽
10 million cars? Such a headache. Delhi is badly organised just like our capital. Too much pollution and traffic jams everyday. But still I wish all the best for beloved Indians.
This should be good for the economy of every city it passes through.
Delhis annual CO2 emissions are at over 69 million tonnes, so removing 250.000 tonnes isn´t that big of a deal. Still better than nothing I guess
"Bund bund se sagar bharta".
TL: Drops combine to form an Ocean.
i wonder what's the per capita there...population is still huge so annual will also be large
@@Liam-ki7sw Between 2 and 4 kilotons per person. If I remember right. Emissions intensity is going down.
@@death_parade that's way better than the @bastian native country LOL
India have very low carbon emission compared to USA
@@death_parade i don't know why Biden made announcement of zero carbon emission before 2030, it's cannot be achieved , it will at least take 2 decades for this world to go green completely and we cannot neglect coal at once.
Makes me so sad as an American. We are a country in decline and will never see advances like this until something changes
Atleast you have freedom.......with many rules and laws lol
Your country is developed
wtf us is more developed than india tbh. The only bad thing is that us doesn't have metro because of propaganda against railroads, I guess that is sad to be true. All US needs is healthcare and public transport and you could say greatest country tbh.
Dude you literally have Californian High Speed Rail on the way
Out of all the cities I've travelled in India, Delhi's public transport is already the best.
Delhi has a very good metro network and travelling within is very easy. You must live under a rock
And change the fking title
Yes
Proud to be a Delhite, We have free Bus Transport for woman, free Electricity, Free public Wifi, Free Water supply, World class movement schools, Amazing food its amazing to live in delhi
have you seen 2021 DTC report gov't haven't bought a new bus since 2016. So SHUT THE FUNK UP and celebrating free stuffs
It is a centre project because new delhi is in delhi
The freebies are what is killing Delhi. And Delhiites are too dumb to understand that the Government should have spent that same amount of money on building even more infrastructure instead of doling out freebies. Do you have any idea how many TODs could have been developed with that kind of money? Redevelopment on that scale would have transformed the city. But as usual, politicians make a fool out of the people by this stupid "freebies for votes" schemes. Glad I got out of Delhi when I had the chance. Wouldn't want to fall chronically ill due to that pollution.
but terrible pollution and hotest summer will kill people
India is at the centre of global growth now. A neat & excellent connectivity within the cities & towards outskirts &;remote areas are vital for further growth. This massive project also seems to contribute towards air pollution. reduction
Delhi needs this ASAP. Getting in and out of Delhi to places like Jaipur is A HUGE PAIN with so much conjestion
The B1m is the best of you tube
Thanks!!
Correction: one of the worst. FTFY
For some reasons this project makes me very glad and positive.
Yayyyy for India, y'all deserve it!!
Superb video
Make a video on delhi mumbai expressway also
I am living in new Delhi, the traffic is unimaginable to outsider, there is no footpath Or cycle track in most of the place, so if you complain your traffic in your city, stop complaining and just be grateful or come experience Delhi traffic.
Then stop voting kejriwal LOL
You don't live in Delhi. Anyone living there knows it's impossible to cycle during most of the year due to hot and humid weather. Go spread your propaganda elsewhere
@@flyingdragon6275go away bjp goon
@@BeanOnTheFlipside lool
What goon
Do you think Annamalai is a Goon ?????
PLZ CORRECT THIS ***🙏🙏🙏
"DELHI" is CAPITAL OF INDIA-:
Delhi NCT Area = 1442 sq km
Population (NCT) = 16.5 million
"DELHI NCR" ( HUGE AREA AROUND DELHI)-:
Delhi NCR Area = 45,000 sq km
Population (NCR) = 32 million
Delhi is not India’s Capital , It’s New Delhi , which is one of the districts of Delhi UT
@@jeevsingh1071 I know
The B1m is the my favourite you tube channel
Seems India sure needs it! 🤗
Rail transport always fascinates me. Loves commuting in MRT, LRT daily to my workplace. Public transport will always be the best spending government can make to give back to the citizen. Glad to see India step up in this regard as well. 👍🏼
Amazing, hope these kinds of transit is built in every densely populated cities in india
Well, in countries like these you can just strongarm the poor who are in the way out.
@@walli6388 true the poor gets poorer and the rich gets richer, the government wants to make people think they doing all the good stuff but they (common man) dont know the irony behind it
@@walli6388 No, its quite the opposite actually. In India, the govt. pays almost 3 times the market price when they acquire the land.
@@shedfur well, not actually. Look at the dw documentary on India's slums and gentrification
@@walli6388 Buddy, I live here. I don't have to see a western propaganda documentary to know shit about my own country.
I'm grateful that I'm in Delhi... Believe me.... Metro has made its people's life easy in the matter of travelling... I can easily go to Gudgaon through metro within 1.5 hrs
I love how much infrastructure efforts have been stepped up in India in last few years. Hopefully we will continue to build more.
I would love to see a video by you guys looking in to why Honolulu's rail is such a major failure. Bad routes, extremely over budget, and way past it's deadline. Thanks!
Is intense lobbying against it a factor? It is quite expensive to fight against lobbyists willing to bribe people just to block any rail project anywhere in the US.
Nice! Well done, India!
you should cover Delhi Mumbai expressway, its an entry controlled expressway and the scale and speed at which it is being built is astonishing!
As Indian we are surprised when we see changes every week
I live in Austin where we are about to start building a several new lines for our metro rail system... but the projected cost is over $10 billion, and not nearly as comprehensive or transformative as this one. There will be some new subterranean sections but most of it will be street level. I wish were were building elevated section like this one in Delhi. Anyhow Mr B1M maybe on a slow content day you can do a video about Austin's new rail system.
Kindly watch the progress in this video

It's not metro rail system which only build to transport within a city, These regional transit rails are for transport even in nearby cities from one state to another.
As a fellow resident of Delhi
Yes pollution is severe and No public transport is not inadequate in Delhi it is pretty good
Yeah bro...
I am also Delhite (Vasant Kunj)
I travelled to Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore and I missed DMRC :(
Delhi metro is best in India
