We can definitely introduce high speed trains in India why not ? We no need to wait to introduce high speed trains until everybody reaches above poverty line. Everything has to go simultaneously by introducing high speed trains millions of jobs will be created farmers can send their fresh produce and they can sell where the demand is high. Foreign tourists will increase goods will be transported in less time millions of indirect jobs will be created. The drivers already driving our trains will get big slaraies by competition between competitors. Why can't we try one or two routes like Mumbai and Ahmedabad, Bangalore and Chennai, Bangalore and Hyderabad. We have to privatise those routes and we have to handover to companies like SNCF(France), DB(German), Thalys(Holland) and then we have to see the results. The fares will not be like european but it will be between indian and european range. but the rail companies around the world will flock to India because of the oppurtunities will provide in their business they will pour billions of dollars into Indian railways because we are a country of 1 billion everybody in India will be very much interested to travel by these trains. I am very much optimistic. We can reach Chennai from Hyderabad within 5 hours from hyderabad to tirupathi in more than 4 hours. I am praying everyday for the introduction of high speed trains in India I follow every news around trains and we travelled by every high speed train in Europe.Mera Bharath Mahaan Jai Hindusthan.
