Indian Trains Failed in Sri Lanka



“We have already initiated an investigation into the suitability of these Indian locomotives. We cannot let waste public funds for spurious imports,” Transport Minister Kumara Welgama said.



Sri Lanka Railways would never hesitate to terminate the contract to import power sets if the investigation report recommends so, he said.

Although the tone of the Transport Minister Kumar Welgama sounds a bit unbecoming of, we Indians should not react to it as if everything coming out of this country is flawless. As stated by the poster, the trains are from a state owned company, and we all know what they are like.

They import 20 trains from our country, and the first train itself develops a snag in the its very first journey. It sure deserves proper criticism. To me it sounds more like a case of putting national honor at the stake for some under the table greens.

Never heard of the Company. Most trains in China are CRH or the like and don't have these issues.

Perhaps they should have bought from a reliable company and stopped stuffing their pockets full.
