Tests of robotic cars have begun in many countries, and many believe the future belongs to this new technologys. But India's Transport Minister, Nittin Gadkani, said: "We will not allow autonomous transport on the streets of India, I am firmly convinced."
This speech is not triggered by the safety problems typical of road transport. The reason for the future ban is the desire to keep jobs.
"We will not allow technologies that take jobs. Countries with high unemployment can not implement technologies that lead to job losses, "said the minister. He added that to date, 22,000 professional drivers have been registered in India, but that is quite insufficient. In India, new special training centers are being opened to add another 5,000 professional drivers to this figure.
On the other hand, this will not affect the industry as a whole. A few months ago, Uber and Google CEOs predicted that autonomous transport would not be available in India soon. The movement on Indian roads is chaotic, all cities are bogged down in huge congestion. The quality of many roads is not particularly high and the unpaved car needs to be very intelligent in order to function in such conditions.

I disagree with banning them. I also do not like Elon Musk talking about raising insurance rates for non-autonomous vehicles, kind of forcing us to buy his crap. They just need to get out of the way of industry.

If they can't afford to pay UBI (universal basic income) it is a good idea to keep low skilled jobs.

Well I think it becomes a discussion on why there's so much poverty. What has their society done to create such a problem? I guess they're having too many children. 1st world industrialized nations actually have a lower birthrate. Might be advantageous for them to privatize and modernize their country. They would need to drop most socialized services and focus on the long term. I feel they have basically created their own problem. Its going to take a generation to repair what socialism has done.

They are on track of becoming the most populated country in the world. That makes fixing their problems quite difficult.

Well thats true, but they do need to reduce the number of births. If they stop incentivising it with free healthcare it goes down immediately. But then you've still got 1.3 billion people and mass poverty. If the economy doesn't grow, you're looking at a huge lost generation.
