I fail to understand the vision or logic behind the 1 Lakh car apart from just making it affordable to more Indian people. But then why now ? why not in the 60's or 70's did they build a affordable car for common man.
Today more than cars India needs good roads , good public transport system in cities. the challenges to build a good public transport are far bigger and complex than to build a 1 lakh car.
Agreed more people should be able to have the pleasure of owning a car but not at a time when the country is seeing an explosion in car population and worst vehicle pollution.
City roads are jammed and no one is getting a better public transport but press is lauding a car ?
Where is the space for so many cars on roads ?
I think this sounds more like an ego expansion then a vision.
