In 1000 days everyone will have 5g service on their phones
Not so soon and definitely not in India.
The same could be said about having fiber to every village, yet here we are discussing just that.

In 2018, the definition of length was changed to count each lane separately.[1] In 2019, the govt stopped building highways at the first sign of economic distress.[2] 1: https://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/now-new-concept-to... 2: https://www.livemint.com/industry/infrastructure/pmo-s-sugge...
While that juices the numbers conveniently, aren't the vast majority of India's roads still two-lane? And as the article notes, building 4 lanes costs more than twice the price building two lanes.
Unless you are talking about legacy roads where coverage was more important. All current highways and expressways are multilane and built according to international standards.

#123Current government only wants more people to have internet, so that they can spread their toxic religious nationalist propoganda. Also spreading more misinformation. Mob lynchings are going to increase with all the WhatsApp news riling up the Go-Rakshaks (cow defenders). And more. All the misinformation and lies to help the goverment win another term.
Yes. You missed the agenda when every village was connected had a phone and the Govt laid down infrastructure for it or when they erected TV towers across length and breadth of country in 80s.

Not much, pay the talents the right amount of money, make it easy for Startups, invest in European technologies and also produce them here, slim down the bureaucracy and the taxes for startups/spinoffs.
I agree with alot of those reasons, but Everywhere, People at startups earn less and work harder, for having an option of growth: stocks, job advancement, possibly better skills, etc. How is the situation in Germany different ?
>slim down the bureaucracy and the taxes for startups/spinoffs.
It's the opposite of what i wrote (eg massive bureaucracy, "normal" taxes) ;)
