jitni bhi new lines bn rhi sab electrification ke sath hi bnti hai.
alag se electrification ke liye tender kyu issue karna.
and even then if such situation arises then attach the existing diesel loco with elecric ones and use when necessary.
already 5 zones in india are 100% electrified, use their diesel locos on non electrified routes
