Introduction:

  • I think developments in infrastructure are very essential for the progress of a nation.
  • Developments could be in sectors like healthcare, education, housing etcetera.

What is the development?

  • Today, I would like to talk about a recent development in our country which is related to the transportation sector.

When did you hear about it?

  • Last month our honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji inaugurated the first automatic/unmanned/driverless metro train in the national capital Delhi.
  • The launch of this train was covered by all the new channels and leading newspapers.

  • This train has no driver; it is remotely controlled by a computer thus avoiding any human errors that can cause accidents.
