Negative minded people are insulting our engineers, says PM Modi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday reached Varanasi, where he is scheduled to announce projects worth Rs 2,900 crore. PM Modi will be inaugurating 31 projects which have already been completed. "PM Modi will flag off the first ever diesel to electric converted locomotive at diesel locomotive works in Varanasi. He will also inspect the locomotive and visit the exhibition," according to a statement released by the Prime Minister's Office.

PM Modi has inaugurated a twin electric WAGC3 loco of 10,000 HP developed by Diesel Locomotive Works, manufactured under Modi government's ambitious 'Make in India' initiative. The converted locos are expected to result in less greenhouse gas emissions and better efficient locomotives for the Indian Railways.
