The mega carrier and launcher machines, which are required to build viaducts or elevated structures necessary for bullet trains are constructed only in China. India’s bullet train project will require up to 30 machines and importing them from China is not possible because of border tensions in Ladakh. India plans to manufacture such machines in India, boosting ‘The Atma Nirbhar Bharat mission’. Achal Khare, managing director of NHSRL said, Indian academicians are capable of building such machines in India rather than importing them.
