In pipeline transport , establishment of underground Pipeline transport involves a huge investment. Maintenance and repair of pipelines is also difficult in underground conditions.
Waterways play an important role in transportation between countries through water, but all the parts of India doesn’ t have enough water even for drinking purposes . Water vessels can be flown only in large quantities of water.
