The Prime minister now, asks us to see, how futuristic he is in his thinking and inaction. He stated that modern thinking calls to look at urbanization as an opportunity and not as a challenge. By using this opportunity, India should invest in building infrastructure that needs necessary attention and use it to ease the continuous marathon of living.
Narendra Modi said that this difference in thinking is what taking India in the right direction and this growth in urbanization is very much necessary. As for the National Common Mobility Card, it could be enabled for anyone who carries a Ru-pay debit card issued from any part of the country to travel on the route.

Since 2002, the Delhi metro has been undergoing much technological development with its trains and stations.

The station has also seen to have made changes in its railway general rules to allow the transmission of driverless trains. Trains will be remotely controlled from common rooms also known as the operations control center. Teams of engineering will be tracking its movement and monitoring its controls. The drivers cannot drive above the constant limit set by the automatic train protection (ATP) system.
The commanding, instructions, and precautions are all taken through the communication-based train control (CBTC) signally technology. If we are to look closer at this aspect, this event is a proud moment for India, and it is something that provides us with a glimpse of what the future waits for us. In India, there is no shortage of resources or labor, if the government keeps their intentions pure and invest in such infrastructural development that one is going to make our daily lives easy then it is something we should welcome with an open heart.
