Firstly government should provide to people basic needs ..............
yes, this is essential. However, having a faster train service does not mean this essentiality has been sidelined. It is always there, and will be there for the near future.The basic needs question will be present unless there be revolution in business and investment.
Aviation and the current railways causes a lot of pollution. We can take the example of Singapore. A faster train service like @Pakistanisage mentioned will be so beneficial to the mddle business-person, it will be ideal in growth for business parks. People will no longer be thronging on to the big cities. Population increase in the big cities can be curtailed. People can live in the smaller cities as they would be like greater extensions of the big cities.
Pakistani Punjab is much like Korea.
I agree, but with the improvement of the highways in Punjab and Motorways, people can easily travel by car. More and more people are able to buy them. So railways will always remain on the backburner. I enjoy driving on the roads in Punjab. Just a different feel to it.
I am not against cars, but public or private transport systems can reduce pollution. Long-term issues. Giving more fertile land to new road-space. Faster trains can take up the existing railway tracks.
