Nicobar needs a large tri-forces base along with living facilities for their families.
They are also building a proper city there but these armed forces families should be the nucleus.

My point is we need to settle lots of people there.

dont we have a tri forces theatre command there? i think i saw something related to it in 2021-22, that it was the only theatre command

I have one question why has it never occurred to the Government of India, or its earlier iterations, to develop and strengthen PSUs in the construction sector? Strangely, they have invested in areas like high-tech aviation, where state-run enterprises arguably shouldn't be the primary players, yet they are completely absent in basic, large-scale infrastructure tasks like local road-laying or civil construction. These aren't technologically complex undertakings; they're standardized, repetitive, and process-driven precisely the kind of tasks PSUs are capable of executing efficiently. While PSUs may not be outstanding successes across the board, they also aren't total failures, and for non-high-tech, routine projects, they can certainly deliver results.

Asking this because of constant randi-rona on twitter regarding crumbling infra.

We don't need PSU for this. What we need is to ensure Contractors were adhering to proper IRC standards. NHAI allowing roads without VUP, allowing an 90 degree road intersection. F**king zebra crossing on an 4 lane road. Also they watered down certain design specs like removing shoulders which is dangerous design and calling them as Economic corridor. Also poor geometrical road design is there. We got recent 90 degree turn bridge.

Roadkari only whines about this and do not take action. Meanwhile City level roads needs to upgraded as to modern standards similar to GIFT City roads.
