“This is a big policy question, how fast we can run our train on the surface.
In many countries you have an elevated network, including in Japan, Korea, some countries in Europe and Taiwan and China come in a great way.
In China, networks Passengers increase and land networks are used for cargo, which can do very well on 60kmph, “said Vaishnaw, the former officer of IAS changed politicians.
Vaishnaw, who is also the Minister of Communication and that, said social media clothes need to increase their accountability and call for greater self-rules.
“In other geography, like the US, it is very difficult to put the content of hatred because they (social media clothing) have developed it (algorithms) and has invested in this matter.
But in our geography, they may not invest many things in removing the content of hatred.

We believe that the judicial process will come out with a fair, true, and wise conclusion.
We must respect the process.”
