Railways accelerate the development of the agriculture and industries, and also bind the economic life of the country together. This is because of the various advantages possessed by railways, such as :
(i) Railways carry out businesses and various multifarious activities such as pilgrimage tourism, travel, commuting etc.
(ii) They help in the transportation of raw materials from the source to the industries, and the manufactured goods to the market. Thus, they efficiently help in the linking of the industries with the market and develop them.
(iii) Furthermore, they also help in the transportation of crops, dairy and its products, vegetables, fruits, flowers, and various allied agricultural products to the markets and thus help the farmers to earn a good profit. Hence, the given statement is clearly justified, as railways are the principal means of transport in India
