$100b Indo-Japan Deal Was Possible – Got $1b Annually
December12, 2015 (C) Ravinder Singh progressindia2015@gmail.com

I don’t know what is the logic of taking few set of Corporate on
foreign trips for decades and returning with Baba Ji Ka Thullu.

Delhi Mumbai Freight Corridor is already under implementation since
2005/06. India could have run High Speed Trains @ 160kmph initially to
200 kmph and CHEAPLY served more destinations over 1400 kilometers
than the Bullet Train.

It is important to note that DMFC is capable of operating 25,000 Tone
Payload Trains at 15 minutes frequency – 96 Trains a day – 2.4 million
tones a day – obviously shall be Grossly Underutilized. Delhi-Mumbai
Frieght Corridor Project can be Improved to Carry Passenger Trains as
well. In 1986 I travelled in British Trains operating at peak speed of
200 kmph which were slightly better than Conventional Indian Trains
Design for 160 kmph speed - both German Coaches & ABB Locomotives
already in production for 2-3 decades in India are designed for 160
kmph speed.

Obviously Delhi to Amritsar, to Jaipur, Agra-Kanpur-Lucknow,
Varanasi-Patna and to Kolkatta can be built in 3-10 years*, in view of
Level Terrain and Low Rainfall – atleast up to Lucknow.  – adding up
to over $40b or more of Japan FDI.

*Amritsar-Delhi in three years > Except small Ghaggar River Between
Ambala & Rajpura there is no major Construction Challenge – Satlej &
Beas Rivers carry Low Flows even in peak floods due to Bhakra & Pong
Large Storage Dams.

Japan has Best and Safest ‘Misubishi Reactor Technology Under Certification’.
Two Coastal Nuclear Projects of 10,000 MWp each built at $60b Cost
could have been big leap in reducing GHG –  avoiding 160 millions of
GHG every year.

India could have awarded both these Projects on BOO basis – Fare for
Bullet Train Per KM to be 100% of Airline Fare for 1St Class – 50% for
Economy Class, similarly Power Tariff for Nuclear Power would have
been 3 Cents/Unit at point of generation.

$50b-$80b Project Contracts - $5b O&M Works/Yr For India
Indian Companies Could Have Focused on Manufacturing

In this $100b JAPAN MAKE IN INDIA Program 50%-70% of Contracts Works
would have been Executed by Indian Companies – and 70% to 80% O&M
Costs.

Outcome of present program is that Japan shall support $12b of $15b
Bullet Train Project which due to Experience of DMFC Project may cost
$30b and $12b shall be foreign aid. India may be Contributing $18b for
this projects.

Why can’t India Let EAST JAPAN RAILWAYS to operate Amritsar to
Kolkatta – NORTH INDIA BULLET RAILWAYS?

Why can’t India let TEPCO which owned 64,000 MW Generation Capacity to
Own & Operate one or two 10,000 MW Project?  Japan Has Special
Expertise in Operating COASTAL Nuclear Power Plants.

India in conclusion managed to get just $1b annual FDI in just concluded deal.
