DMRC to help build Dhaka Metro

[he-man]

For Bangladeshi members demanding better MRT systems than this one,I would ask them to look at the standard of other 'modern' infrastructure existing in their country,like Dhaka Airport.

DELHI BUS STAND FOR U

PROBABLY BETTER THAN UR SHITTY AIRPORT.

I wonder if these guys are high or something??

Just to bring the discussion on topic - let's take a look at the brand new 'high quality' Rs 4,321 crore (about $720 million) Mumbai metro and their expertise,

Mumbai’s brand new $700-million metro is leaking water – Quartz

Hey you bangolodeshi troll, the Mumbai Metro leakage was reported in a single coach post days of massive torrential showers. The problem (with the Chinese manufactured coach - yeah, I'm not sure why reliance brainfarted wrt to rolling stock procurement) was rectified, and subsequently replaced by metro authorities within minutes. Bombay city is known for its super efficient (albeit crowded) public transportation; a term your countrymen have no concept about.

and here Bangladeshis, who don't even have a credible public transport system in their capital city, are passing judgement on our expertise. First learn well to operate those ancient toy trains that you guys have.

You nailed it bro.

You nailed it bro.

Oh how conveniently we forget,

List of all mishaps in just one decade of operations on Indian trains primarily due to horrible quality coaches and lack of fire alarms on trains (again kanjoosy mentality at play). With pedigree and a miserable (and indefensible) safety record such as this - Indian 'achievement' in rail-technology seem highly questionable.

Chronology of major rail mishaps in last 10 years
Press Trust of India | New Delhi
December 28, 2013
An air-conditioned coach of the Bangalore-Nanded Express train caught fire in the early hours today in Anantpur district of Andhra Pradesh, killing 26 people and injuring 13 others.

Following is the chronology of major train mishaps in the last 10 years:

• May 15, 2003: A burst stove in the Mumbai-Amritsar Golden Temple Express (Frontier Mail) near Ludhiana in Punjab led to a major fire, killing 40 people and injured more than 50.

• June 22, 2003: 53 people were killed and 25 others injured in an accident on the Konkan Railway when the engine and three coaches of the Karwar-Mumbai Central Holiday Special train derailed after crossing Vaibhavwadi station in Maharashtra.

• July 2, 2003: At least 22 passengers and motorists were killed in a bizarre but ghastly accident in Andhra Pradesh when the engine and two coaches of a train fell off a bridge crushing vehicles passing underneath.

• June 16, 2004: Matsyagandha Express skidded off the tracks while crossing a bridge in Maharashtra's Raigarh district, killing 20 people and injuring over 60.

• Dec 1, 2006: A portion of a 150-year-old bridge collapsed over a passing train in Bihar's Bhagalpur district, killing 35 and injuring 17.

• Dec 14, 2007: Ludhiana-Ferozpur Express rammed a min bus near Ajitwal station killing 16 people.

• Aug 1, 2008: A Secunderabad-Kakinada nightly Gautami Express with 360 passengers catches fire near Tadallapusalapalli station in Warangal killing at least 31 passengers.

• Jan 25, 2009: Kanpur-Allahabad train rammed a truck near Unchahar station killing 12 people.

• Feb 22, 2009: A local passenger-train hit a Bolero in an unmanned level crossing near Barapalli station killing 15 people.

Bangalore-Nanded tragedy: Most Indian trains don’t have automatic fire alarms

• Dec 28, 2013 #Andhra Pradesh #Bangalore-Nanded Express : Despite repeated fire incidents in trains, railways is yet to install automatic fire alarm system in a majority of long-distance services. 26 passengers were charred to death in an AC coach in the Bangalore-Nanded Express.

• Earlier, a fire in the Tamil Nadu Express had claimed 32 lives.

• Seven persons were burnt to death in November, 2011 when a coach of Howrah-Dehradun Express train caught fire. Later, the fire spread to another coach and both the coaches were badly burnt.

• Three coaches of Mumbai-Delhi Rajdhani Express had caught fire near Ratlam in Madhya Pradesh on April 18, 2011.

• New Delhi-Patna Rajdhani Express' generator coach caught fire on the outskirts in New Delhi Railway Station in July, 2011. The automatic smoke/fire detection alarm system is being planned for air-conditioned coaches of all Rajdhani, Shatabdi, Garib Rath and Duranto trains but so far it has been installed in two Rajdhani trains.

• Currently, Secunderabad Rajdhani and Bhubaneswar Rajdhani have the system which is equipped to detect smoke and fire at the earliest and ring the alarm. It costs about Rs 35 lakh to install a fire alarm system in a train.

Too dumb.DMRC is not related to Indian Railways.

Next.

Dec 14, 2007: Ludhiana-Ferozpur Express rammed a min bus near Ajitwal station killing 16 people.
Jan 25, 2009: Kanpur-Allahabad train rammed a truck near Unchahar station killing 12 people.
Feb 22, 2009: A local passenger-train hit a Bolero in an unmanned level crossing near Barapalli station killing 15 people.

BS again.These aren't related to IR.

Oh how conveniently we forget,

Nothing about a credible public transport system in Dhaka ?

I think Indian members here cannot hide out the real picture of India.

We discharge it all to bangladeshs rivers.

 

[Cold Blood]

Even India's largest cities lack proper toilet facilities.

Mumbai’s ‘potty’ issue

@gslv mk3 watch Bangladesh's world class railway station, even the Mughal era ruins look better than this.

LOL @ Indians bragging at their new toys when millions of their population die of starvation every year and the majority do not have access to toilets and have to defecate in the open.

India had a 24 year head start over BD and so has been able to build up sufficient capital that over the last decade, it has been able to get funding to build these projects.

Now things are changing for BD and the government is now able to use its own internal resources to build the 2 billion dollar Padma bridge with its own financial resources. Expect as the BD economy keeps growing that many more projects will be started in BD over the next decade and then BD will have infrastructure better than India.

India 'the world's largest open air toilet'

India is the world's largest open air lavatory with three fifths of the world's people forced to do their ablutions outside, the country's rural development minister said.

Jairam Ramesh said spending on basic sanitation should match India's vast defence spending and that the country's best scientific minds should be deployed to make sure every Indian had access to an inside lavatory.

"Nearly 60 per cent of the people in the world who defecate in the open belong to India. Even countries like Bangladesh, Nepal, Pakistan and Afghanistan have better records. We should be ashamed of this."

He was speaking at the launch of a new 'eco-lavatory' designed by India's Defence Research and Development Organisation, which is responsible for developing its new Agni Inter-Continental Ballistic Missiles.

Of all India's states, Sikkim, the tiny former Kingdom in the Himalayas, has provided indoor lavatories for all its people. Kerala, in the south, is close to joining it, but the minister said it was disappointing that so many other states were not even close to meeting the target. Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh and Orissa had particular poor records.

In Orissa, only 280 of 6300 local authorities could claim to have 100 per cent lavatory use, he said.


Unless India fix this problems, there is nothing to be proud of.

we all did hear about $7 billion airport.....

Expect as the BD economy keeps growing that many more projects will be started in BD over the next decade and then BD will have infrastructure better than India.

Not even in a century,pal.Build a proper airport terminal in your capital city,then come to talk.

What's the reason Bangladesh's government goes to everyone's door even to get funds for building ordinary road or bridge.
