In poll-bound Bihar, PM to flag off export of locomotives to Guinea
PM Narendra Modi (File photo) NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to flag off export of the first locomotive from Marhowrah factory in Saran for Guinea in West Africa on Friday, signalling the NDA govts' — both at Centre and state — thrust on accelerating economic activities in poll-bound Bihar. Railway ministry officials said that 150 Make in India Evolution Series (ES43ACmi) locomotives for SimFer's Simandou iron ore project in Guinea worth more than Rs 3,000 crore are being manufactured. Simandou will be Africa's largest mining project. 'In the current financial year, 37 locomotives will be exported, another 82 locomotives will be shipped out in 2026-27 and the remaining 31 locomotives in the third year,' said an official. Though the Marhowrah diesel locomotive factory (DLF) was announced by then railway minister Lalu Prasad, it remained inactive. Spread over 70 acres, the factory was established in 2018 to indigenously manufacture 1,000 state-of-the-art locomotives. The annual production capacity of the factory is over 100 locomotives. The contract to export the locomotives was awarded to Wabtec Locomotive Private Ltd, a joint venture between Indian Railways and US-based Wabtec Corporation. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo All these locomotives will have AC cabs.

'For manufacturing of these locomotives, three types of tracks — broad gauge, standard gauge and Cape guage have been laid in Marhowrah premises,' said another railway official. Officials said with the Indian Railway network achieving full electrification, there is a huge scope for exporting diesel locos to countries where there is demand. 'It's an opportunity to increase our export of locos that match the best standard across the globe. For Bihar, it will be a big milestone,' said an official.

"We must now deliver on promises of development and ensure Delhi gets what it rightfully deserves": Union Minister Hardeep Puri
New Delhi [India], June 16 (ANI): Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri on Monday hailed the 11 years of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government and called for action on the development and growth of Delhi. He further stated that under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India's Gross Domestic Product had increased from two trillion dollars to four trillion dollars. 'With PM Modi's 11 years of governance and the support of local bodies, we have no excuses left. We must now deliver on the promises of development and ensure Delhi gets what it rightfully deserves. When PM Modi took charge in 2014, India's GDP was 2 trillion dollars. Today, it has reached 4 trillion dollars,' Puri said, speaking to the media. He further stated that the results of the triple-engine government could be seen at the Centre, Delhi and the Municipal Corporation of Delhi. Puri also stated that he was a witness to Delhi's evolution after partition, further stating that after successive waves of migration, the population in the city had finally crossed two crores. 'I've seen Delhi evolve since just after partition, when the city's population was around 11-12 lakh. After successive waves of migration, the population has now crossed over 2 crore. You can see the results of the triple-engine government we now have--at the Centre, in Delhi, and in the MCD,' he added. Earlier on June 14, Union Minister of Ports, Shipping & Waterways, Sarbananda Sonowal, said that India is firmly on track to become the world's third-largest economy by 2029, crediting 11 years of Narendra Modi's 'decisive and corruption-free governance' for triggering what he described as an 'unstoppable surge' in national development. Addressing a press conference in Dibrugadh to mark the NDA government's 11th anniversary, the senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader and Union Minister said that India has emerged from an era of 'policy paralysis and dynastic politics' and is now driven by welfare-led growth, youth-powered innovation, and massive infrastructure expansion. 'In just one decade, over 25 crore Indians have risen above poverty. That's more than the population of most European countries,' Sonowal said. 'This is the Modi guarantee -- delivery with speed, scale and honesty.' Highlighting the economic strides under the Modi government, Sarbananda Sonowal said India's rise to the fourth-largest global economy is just the beginning. 'By 2029, India will be the third-largest economy. We're building the foundation for a Viksit Bharat -- a developed, self-reliant India.' Sonowal cited the rise of India's startup ecosystem -- from 30,000 in 2014 to over 1 lakh today -- as evidence of the country's changing mindset. 'This is a new India, led by young dreamers and doers. Over 1.7 crore youth are now part of this vibrant startup movement.' (ANI)
