This issue is very confusing. When acceptable Indian design and technology is available (and this is indeed a matter of pride and achievement for the Indian Railways), why there is a need to look for foreign sources?

If cost is the issue, it could as well be brought down by increased production and possibly by exports to other countries. Piyush Goel has miserably failed to sort out this issue for a long time and it required intervention from PMO is a sad commentary on the state of affairs in the Railways, particularly when the trains produced have been giving excellent service on two routes. Piyus is doing a good job but this issue is his failure. He must sort this out immediately.
