Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said that there are several ongoing reforms in Railways, which are not being focused upon.
"Indian Railways needs fundamental changes.....Many MPs get happy with announcement of projects announced for their constituency in Parliament....but many of them will not be implemented," said Modi, while inaugurating the Sethubharatam project, a project to strengthen the bridges.
“Railways is being taken towards electrification….nobody has focused on railway reforms….We are improving quality of infrastructure,” said Modi.
Road, rail, water connectivity, electricity generation, electricity supply — are some most basic changes that the government will focus on.
The PM congratulated the Road Transport and Highways Minister, Nitin Gadkari, for focusing on improving bridges through the Sethubharatam project.
He added that in universities, engineering and architecture students can focus on infrastructure, particularly bridge improvement, which can create a lot of jobs.
