They tried to blow Army's special train.
Now what will they do when we have active war going on.

NIA is called in for this case.

What's with Vande Bharat Train designer, he speaks like a doomer guy on everything including the upcoming 250kmph BEML Train. What exactly does he want us to do? Just screwdrivergiri or import by paying hefty fee?

Did you even read what he wrote?

He's asking why ICF (the designer of Train 18) subcontracted the HS train tender to BEML. ICF had the opportunity to innovate and create a completely new train, yet they simply passed everything to BEML. This was a good opportunity for them to buy new tooling, and build a modern process

Now all the glory will rightfully go to BEML, even though GoI gave ICF the chance. BEML will have all the tech to build HS trains while ICF will be stuck with building dabbas.

Shudhanshu Mani have a protectionist mindset. He wants everything goes to ICF meanwhile government want more competition in railway manufacturing.

ICF have done good job but same Train -18 became victim of their internal politics which let 3 years delay in the project.

Diversification of knowledge is a good strategy to create competition.

Need to scan your ticket to enter (this is true throughout Europe and Japan also)

On the platforms? Not at all. Atleast not in Germany and Netherlands!

To enter the platform

Yes even for that. You can just walk in. There's always security overwatch and DB security personnel doing their rounds. Post sunset, the security is tightened to keep people from loitering etc and at night to keep the homeless away.
Extra ticket checks have been happening lately in the border areas to stop illegal migrants but apart from that you just see stop and search for people suspected to be drug dealers or petty thieves.
