Lifelines of National Economy
For a long time, trade and transport were restricted to a limited space.
With the development in science and technology, the area of influence of
trade and transport expanded far and wide. Today, the world has been
converted into a large village with the help of efficient and fast moving
transport. Transport has been able to achieve this with the help of
equally developed communication system. Therefore, transport,
communication and trade are complementary to each other.
Today, India is well-linked with the rest of the world despite its vast size,
diversity and linguistic and socio-cultural plurality. Railways, airways,
waterways, newspapers, radio, television, cinema and internet, etc. have
been contributing to its socio-economic progress in many ways. The
trades from local to international levels have added to the vitality of its
economy. It has enriched our life and added substantially to growing
amenities and facilities for the comforts of life.
(12.1) How is science an important factor in the development of
transport ? 1
