Japanese firms. The move is expected to give a major boost to Indian engineering capability.
According to the report, to explore if the highly technical work of laying the rail track of the bullet train corridor can be done by an indigenous engineering company, India is in discussions with Japan. On the 508-km stretch of the Ahmedabad-Mumbai corridor, 27 steel bridges will be made by Indian companies, which was earlier thought to be the sole domain expertise of Japanese firms. According to the sources quoted, the work for 65,000-ton steel fabrication for the 27 bridges in the high-speed rail corridor will be certified by Tiruchirapalli's Welding Research Institute. Also, the cost of the work is likely to be "slightly cheaper" with Indian firms than with Japanese companies. However, rolling stock, signalling and control systems would be from Japan.
The 21-km long underground stretch from Bandra Kurla Complex to Kalyan has 7 km section under the Thane creek, with 1.8 km section under the sea bed, while the remaining stretch under mangrove marshland on either side of the creek in Mumbai. The tender for the tunnel project is expected to be opened next month, the report added.
However, the mute question remains that we do require it. First we have to make sure that we have an accident free year which can be done by upgrading the systems.
