. Even though the Railways are the most pervasive mode of
transport of India, it is the road transport which received
the maximum impetus in most of the post-independence period.
Which of the following are the reasons for this?
1. Railways are cheap to operate but the associated capital
costs are very high.
2. Given the geographic spread of the human settlements, it
is unrealistic that the railways alone can serve the needs
of transport.
3. The per unit (tonne/km) cost of transport is cheaper in
road compared to rail transport.
4. Given the indivisible nature of the Railways, it is not
always convenient for the population to avail of it with the
same ease as private cars, buses or two-wheelers.
