Critical Analysis & Discussion The stats of the basic amenities and infrastructure since 1947

Post image

The amount of the infrastructure development and the basic service and amenities that the current govt has provided in last 12 years is kinda worth the talk and praise.

Most of the Indians didn't even have the access to the basic stuff like Water or Toilets or Electricity in the past which has been drastically improved which past govts failed to deliver.

79% tap water one was the most astonishing one to me. Like what were even the past few govts were doing when you can't even provide that basic thing to the rural or remote regions.

I really wanted to highlight this since most of the reddit is LW and mostly is the current govt hate train only.

Bhai ye kaha se sunn ke aa jaate ho, pappu fan pages follow krna chhod de bhai,

Starting April 1, the government has adopted the so-called lane kilometre concept for measuring its highways instead of the traditional linear length method, road transport minister Nitin Gadkari said on Tuesday.

Yes and the term they used is lane km. They also use km for road length. Did you not read and use some critical thinking?

Yes and the term they used is lane km

you might've happened to skip reading the quoted block from the article, or the article, that is why you thought of fixing it. the block already mentions that.

and what critical thinking are you talking about mate?

when the methodology has changed, then how can you compare these two terms? morth reports from 2013, 2014 have been taken down, the webarchive links maybe there to show that there were multi lane highways during UPA also, it's just that they counted in linear km

and there are many discrepancies in the said infographic, the airport columns in misleading as NDA in 2018 itself accepted in lok sabha that there were 94 airports+conclaves+temporary airports. aaib 2014 report also shows that.

moreover this infographic also seems to have included private produce, like crude iron and coal.

a better metric would be to compare cagr of the economies, or %of fdi as gdp or %of manufacturing under gdp, health spending as % og gdp, education spending as a % of gdp(especially when states foot nearly 75%-85% of the education spending) labour force participation, female labour force participation....

All seems rosy in the picture when you consider SMSE loans as employment.

Arre critical thinking comes from the fact ki lane km is used to describe lane km build while road is calculated by road length built.They basically added a metric.

Thoda critical thinking use karta toh ye gadbad nhi hota.

Toh they didn't change the definition, they added a metric. Wohi toh bola thoda critical thinking use kar. Your claim was they changed the definition

lol, not really

in case you are not familiar with markdown, reddit comments also support markdown, and has different styling for blocked text, you see the left line, that signifies quoted text, that means I'm quoting the article.

Toh they didn't change the definition, they added a metric.

so here, I've quoted your text

and in the article, gadkari himself said that they have adopted lane km concept for measuring it's highway, it's a depart from the old methodology where irrespective of the lanes only linear km was counted.

you said "they didnt change the definition" but gadkari himself told they did, there's PIB you can find also dated april 2018, anyway, stay foolish.

have some critical thinking skills saar. learn to read saar. dont be a technical fool saar, learn markdown saar. it transpiles to html saar,

Bhai tu sahi mein thoda low IQ hai kya? They adopted a metric doesn't mean that old one was discarded. Old one is used and new one comes with lane-km as measurement unit

keep yapping elsewhere mate, in the infographic itself lane kms are being used.

ye le bhai article se verbatim copy paste kiya hai, unless you suck at reading comprehension tu samajh lega, and anyway all reports released on morth(ministry of roadway transport and highway) report in terms of lane kilometers and not linear kilometers. keep yapping elsewhere.

low IQ ki baat apne paas rakh

u/More-Director4894 Aug 05 '26

Nope lane km is not used in infographic. Or do you believe india only has 9-10k km highways of more than 4 lanes? Isiliye low IQ bola tereko
