Transportation sector is a huge industry which also happens to be highly uncoordinated. Rail has big benefits of transferring bulky goods over long distance while road serve the opposite strata of demands. Today, main problems occurring in this sector is lack of co-ordination for efficient transport leading to major crisis like delay in transportation, Pollution, Wastage of resources, Problems with maps. People hesitate to pool vehicles and use public transport because of not knowing how to go from point a to point b. Scope of innovation is massive, and so will be the impact upon productivity. It is worth noting that rich and the poor, both get equally affected by this. Keeping the entire economic strata of our society in mind, design a system that could make our transportation efficient, safe and affordable.

60% of our citizens are employed in agriculture which produces almost 17% of our GDP. Combined with this fact, Small land holding, no direct selling by farmers, Lack of irrigation and ploughing facilities, non existence of free market,all agriculture producing food crop. are all various reasons because of which this sector is stagnant.

We can help this situation with technology. Creating awareness about small land sizes, Decreasing cost required to move to commercial crops, Engineering Machines for improving the yeild and reducing labour cost, Optimizing logistics and helping farmers to sell their products at better prices, Buiding to improve food transportation, can all help us with agriculture.

Lets create something and help our impoverished farmers and strengthen the backbone of our nations economy.
