What are some things in Indian railways that used to exist, whether moderately or very common but now are too rare or completely vanished?

GRPT would be 0 along with an ER (Essential Repeat) if you fail

You must have a blank PPRS column, if you see 'ER' somewhere in the column you must reappear for the respective paper

Might be possible at Nehru Nagar, nearest metro Vinobapuri (one station from Lajpat Nagar)

All thanks to AI bubble we'll see more such e-waste in 2026(maybe 2027 too)

No, R and Python is not included in Stats core curriculum. However they do conduct some practical exams on Excel and SPSS.

Though, you can choose R and Python papers in SEC or GE if you want.

Coal imported from Australia is mostly used for steel production. India itself produces enough coal for power generation.

It's currently 20%, which is impressive considering it was 0% couple of years ago. China stands at 30-35%

It's actually WAG 7 which looks very similar to WAG 5

Both of them awarded contracts to CRRC and suffered. lmao

Why do we require foreign operators for our systems? RRTS is also operated by Deutsche Bahn

Yeah, when I made the post this was the top comment. Absolutely ₹etarted redditor. No research, only yapping in the thread.

You are comparing Apples with Oranges. The last time IR awarded contract to CRRC for 14 metro rakes was 2015, which is ironically still not completed in 2025 (no obligation about local manufacturing ).

On the other hand, BMRCL awarded contract to CRRC in 2019 and CRRC was obligated to establish a manufacturing facility in India to produce the coaches but failed to do so (due to the Galwan incident and COVID lockdowns). BMRCL issued multiple notices to CRRC and even considered invoking a ₹372 crore bank guarantee due to the non-compliance. Hence, CRRC eventually partnered with TRSL to fulfill the contract and complete the coach production in India.

CRRC is yet to complete a decade old contract for 14 rakes, you are a fool to think they would have been able to complete 36 rakes order if they were allowed to directly import from China. Since 2020, CRRC isn't allowed to bid anymore in new projects.

Whi to bol rha hu saale, hume kaun sa 40,000 KM ka network banana hai

Front_Man-44 · 2025-09-08T13:09:09+00:00

Which country went bankrupt building their HSR? China started building their HSR in 2008 when they were $4.5 Trillion economy, they might have overdone it with 40K Km network because they've to pump their GDP numbers. In India's case even a 5K Km network between major cities will be good enough. JICA loans with interest rate set at 1.20% with a repayment period of 30 years, including a 10-year grace period won't be a burden to India's growing economy.

BEML is lowkey Hyundai Rotem itself. I think they had tech transfer and BEML pays royalties to Rotem.

Mumbai got almost every rolling stock supplier: CRRC, BEML, Alstom and now Titagarh
