QUE: Government should spend money on railways rather than road. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement.

It is the responsibility of the government of any nations to optimize transport by investing state funds into the sector.

However

, there arises a controversy that the funds should be allocated to improving the railway

system

other than the roads. In my opinion, both forms of transportation, when improved upon, are beneficial to any country so one should not be neglected in

needs to be made more effective by spending money on it.

This
