China's Bullet Trains!! What about India ? ?

This is about the news i heard about china in a news channel. Its about the bullet trains in china. It seems that china has over 150 bullet trains operating. These are not ordinary trains, they are high speed trains which travel at 350 kmph.  Presently they are operating between beijing and shangai. In ordinary train it takes 12 hours to travel from beijing to shangai and viceversa. But the bullet train just takes 4 hours to cover the distance.



Nothing new about the bullet trains, they are already there in europe, japan etc., but when it comes to china its new. Its about the growth of china. Growth in terms of technology. Their desire to prove their dominance.

We need to appreciate the communist government in china, its they who are pushing the chinese power to the extreme. They are slowly but carefully moving up the ladder in all departments. Competing with the so called dominant nations, in technology, research etc.,

If we are talking about china, then we need to talk about india as well. Since there is no difference between both these nations, except the language. Mostly, both the nations are same, consider population, culture, natural resources.

If that is the case why india does not have the bullet trains. If china has 150, cant india have atleast one. we need to ask ourself the question why??

If you think deep, the answer is simple its the people. The people of china are against corruption, the flow of money is streamlined to reach proper channels so that it can be spent on development, welfare. Why talk about the people, because its the people who form the government and run it.

Consider the same for india, its rich in everything over china, but still.... they do not have the technology. Here the people are choosing wrong persons as their representatives. Because of this, flow of money is not streamlined, whoever is running the government they are misusing the funds allotted, using it for their own benefit instead of investing in development and welfare.

This is an unending discussion. But would request everyone to stop corruption, stop blaming the politician alone. Think whether we are electing the right people? Let the end of corruption begin from us, rest will change automatically.

I wish to see a day when india has its own bullet trains, atleast one!!
