A white paper with suggestions on Exponential Development of Indian Railways
Objective of this paper
The author wrote this white paper because he believed that Indian Railways should be proactive in developing a long term strategic business plan. The span of such a plan should cover the period until India becomes a developed country. With such an ideal, Indian Railways actually works with the national economic developments rather than reacting to the transportation needs under pressure. This paper also describes technical examples where significant accomplishments can be made by the Railways. This paper, however, should be viewed as a document making suggestions but not detailing tasks and designs.
