It is the year 2030. Nikhil Nanjappa, a hard core Kannadiga, extremely proud of his culture and language is driving to his office on MG Road in Bangalore in his newly purchased Maruthi Ritz when, a two wheeler driven by Ashok Aggarwal from Delhi, accidentally rams into Nikhil's car. Ashok is profusely apologetic but being new to the city, starts stammering in broken kannada hoping to get his message across. Nikhil does not understand a word of his broken Kannada and sadly does not speak Hindi either. He looks at his brand new car, now with a huge dent at the rear. He turns back to Ashok, veins on his forehead visible, his eyes narrowed and says: "Are you hurt sir ? It seems you are new to my city. Do you require assistance" in English, figuring this might be the only language they have in common. Ashok, feeling blessed and a little relieved replies "But what about you car?" Nikhil smiles "I am insured so its fine". As they got talking, their smart wrist bands designed by New India Labs for all Indian citizens start beeping. Within a few minutes the emergency vehicle retrieval squad (EVRS), provided by the local Municipality has already appeared at the scene and removed both the car and motor bike from the road. Paramedics from the EVRS do a cursory health check of Nikhil and Ashok and verify they are alright. All the checks are also recorded digitally and submitted electronically to both of them and theur mandated health insurance agents.The police FIR has already been filed online by the traffic constable in the meanwhile and emailed to Nikhil, Ashok and their vehicle insuance agents. The vehicle insurance agent Mr. Kapil soon arrives at the scene and he just asks for the thumbprints of Nikhil, Ashok and the local taffic constable so that they can certify that the events are true. Mr. Kapil then activates the insurance claim, which will not only pay for vehicle repairs but also for the service provided by the EVRS. Very soon replacement vehicles for both parties arrive and takes them on their respective journeys. Later that day Ashok and Nikhil discover that they have a common friend on facebook named Saurav who hails from Kolkata. It just so happens that Saurav was one of the initial pioneers of the smart band technology which connects all Indians to each other and which has since been offered by order of the Indian Prime Minister to all new Citizens. The bands also look quite fashionable and their cost is borne by the Indian tax payer.Its been a while since Saurav has had the chance to visit his home in Kolkata. He has been so caught up in his work down south, that he had been away from home for the last 3 years. His son has just turned 4 and even his wife was feeling homesick. His mood catches the notice of his colleague at work who suggests that he should take a break. Deciding to take a vacation, Saurav opens the work station app provided by his company, on his tablet, and clicks on the 'leave sanction' field. In the next second, a token is delivered by his company administration directly to his tablet. He clicks open the token which asks for his leave dates and journey details if required. He fills them in and the next moment, three return bullet train tickets are delivered to him, his wife and their child, paperlessly to their smart id bands placed on their wrists. Simultaneously his child's smart id activates the leave approval from his play school. The play school dean, Ms Sinha is alerted about the leave request at 1559 and the leave is approved. The leave request came right on time too as she had just been transferred to a new job in Kerala. But she had stayed till 1600 to complete all formalities for her replacement. Saurav and his family catch their Bullet train that evening and reach Kolkata in a few hours.Ms. Sinha finds Kerala very beautiful. It has been a week since she got transferred to the Kidzen play school as their new dean. She has settled well into her new job and her smart band is currently playing the Duolingo app which is reciting to her common Malayalam phrases. She hopes to be well versed in the local language in a few months. Her son has travelled with her to Kerala and is currently playing with her new neighbours' children in the Community cricket pitch. While Ms Sinha is practicing her Malayalam, her Duolingo app pauses to let her smart band broadcast her a reminder that her Son has been away from Schooling for 8 days now. Feeling a bit guilty for the delay and since her husband is currently away at Singapore, she alone has to enroll her 6 year old at a school in Trivandrum now. No matter, she opens the government run "find my school" website. A momentary swipe of her own smart band pulls in all the details of her son, including age, apptitude and previous school records. She clicks search and the website provides her with the various schools near her current location with vacancies, school fees, and curriculum. With another click, her debit card has been charged and her child's new school admission is confirmed and the new student id card is emailed to her as well as to her child's smart band. He will start school tomorrow and the school bus will inform them of their daily schedule in another few minutes. Another message is delivered to the child's father Mr. Sinha who is delivering a guest lecture on advanced grid systems to the faculty and students of the National University of Singapore: "Congratulations, your son is now enrolled in Trivandrum high school, grade 2. Trivandrum high school is well regarded internationally amd has a mean success score of 83% on the PISA scale...." Mr. Sinha pauses momentarily in his lecture and quickly persuses his message. The eager Singaporean students look curiously at the smart band their lecturer is wearing on his wrist. They had of course heard of the new age Governance in India and even Singapore was planning to do away with their old system of id cards and introduce the smart band technology. Mr. Sinha smiles apologetically and continues with his lecture.Mr. Saurav has spent 2 weeks in Kolkata with his parents. His wife is happy to meet her inlaws and her 4 year old son is also happy to meet his grand parents. They decide that they all want to travel somewhere together for the remaining period of Saurav's leave. After thinking about it, they decide on Denmark. Saurav once again swipes his smart band on to his laptop and opens one of his favourite online travel catalogues. The travel app on his laptop has already pulled the passenger personal details from his band. It offers him a full family package and Saurav agrees. The travel pulls the remaining passenger details from the smart bands of his family members. He selects the destination as Copenhagen. In another few clicks, his Air India (which has won the World's best airline award three times in a row) tickets are ready. The rest of his family also receive their paperless tickets in their smart ids. That vening, they head towards the local metro station which directly links their street with the airport. No separate tickets are required for an airport transfer and the family deposits their bags in the deposit counter in the metro. Their bags have been pretagged and will now be waiting for them hours later at Copenhagen airport. After the family reaches the airport, they chill out in the cafeteria. Their smart ids have already checked them in, when they entered the airport and being Indian citizens their immigration formalities were expedited rapidly through the airport server while they sipped tea with samosas. Additionally they have complimentary accident, health and travel insurance, provided for by the Goverment of India to protect the interests of its citizens. Very soon they board the Air India flight and take off from Kolkata Airport.Upon landing in Denmark, Saurav's family is welcomed through the express check out in the Copenhagen airport. Since India and Denmark share close ties, they do not need a visa for short durations and are directly taken to their hotel, compliments of the Denmark tourism department. They did not need to show any passports or travel documents as Denmark is one the countries that recognises the Smart band as a valid travel document. Not only do their smart bands from India act as an unique national id, it also holds key details about the person including their travel privileges. It also doubles up as an international debit card, which Saurav demonstrates by swiping his smart id on to the hotel's debit card machine and chooses from which of his many bank accounts he would like to pay from. The transaction is registered by his bank and an alert message is sent to the Indian government who exempts this travel expenditure from tax as per the Indian-Denmark agreement and also acknowledges that her citizens must have now safely checked into a hotel after immigration. The Indian embassy in Denmark is also simultaneously notified and they quickly deliver a message to Saurav's smart band: "Dear citizen, welcome to Denmark. If you require any assistance at anytime, just dial...."Mr. Sinha finished his lecture 2 weeks ago and was currently in his chambers at the Marina bay hotel in Singapore. He looks out the window and gazes far at the other side of the city where the Hyperloop travel terminus opened into its platform in Little India. Mr. Sinha smiles as he rememebers how India and Singapore built a hyperloop tube to connect their nations thereby improving trade between their countries. Mr. Sinha had been the chief architect of the system and he had just inaugurated the first functioning hyperloop technology in the world that is open to the public. Although his schedule was busy, he also had to return back to India and see how his son is settling into Trivandrum High 0School. Being the chief architect, he had smartly designed the new Hyperloop to be connected to the bullet train network in India and to the metro network in Singapore (since Singapore did not have its own Bullet train network) and it would be just 12 hours before he could give his son a much needed hug. Maybe he would convince him to try and become an engineering architect like himself. Afterall wasn't he an alumnus of the great APJ Abdul Kalam institute of Advanced Sciences (which had coincidentally been ranked the World's most reputed scientific institution last year based on the number of grants it received, with MIT coming a close second) ☺☺☺.Saurav and his family enjoyed their trip in Denmark and now it was time to fly home. While in his return flight, he logs on to his private citizen portal through the inflight Lifi. He filled in the mandated Indian Government Citizen welcome back e-form which included special details and information regarding any issues he might have faced in his travel as well as any positive things he might have learnt during his stay abroad. This information is collected by the Indian government to further improve its services.Mr. Sinha has returned to Trivandrum to his family. He checks on his child's progress. Due to his upbringing, he was already fluent in Malayalam and settled quite easily into his new role as the wch advisor to the Kerala government. The state has just secured funds to construct the second hyperloop terminus between India and its neighbour Srilanka as well as to Lakshadeep Island. The Srilankan government was eager to get this interconnectivity between their countries. This time it would be trickier as most of the hyperloop would be constructed above the Indian ocean and the new tech proposal wanted to reduce power consumption to less than 40% of the India-Singapore hyperloop terminus. While technically challenging, Mr. Sinha has already made plans to convert the roof of the entire hyperloop coach into a solar panel. To secure permission to procure the advanced Solar-TM technology he needed to have his proposal approved by the Prime minister . The Solar-TM technology was a national secret that enabled India to reduce its fossil fuel consumption to less than 20% of its previous value. This technology also happened to have been pioneered by Dr. Vikram who was Mr. Sinha's college mate! Maybe it was time Mr. Sinha visited his friend again.In his luxury quarters in Boston, Dr. Vikram felt someone was remembering him. Maybe it was Sinha he thought, afterall they had been good friends for a long time. Last he had heard that Sinha had been promoted to chief design archtiect for India's hyperloop project. It was very impressive technology, Dr Vikram had to admit however perhaps not as challenging as creating the Solar fabric technology he had made. His Solar TM design could extract power from the visible and non visible spectrum of light with almost 99% efficiency. But what was more impressive was that it was designed from relatively abundant and easily available materials. This reduced its production and design costs tremendously. Under the prime ministerial mandate under the New India design, almost 1% of India’s surface had been covered in Solar panels providing electricity for a massive chunk of all Indian cities. All the Indian villages and towns had 24 hour electricity now. Additionally great design helped in reducing wastage. The total project had taken amost 5 years to accomplish. The price of electricity had reduced considerably and this changed the financial landscape of India. More funds could now be diverted to healthcare and other advanced science projects under the new initiative. The Indian science sector was getting a massive boost. The fruits of this were quite visible. Pan India transport using the Bullet train network being the crown jewel. And now a direct hyperloop line between India and Singapore! Deeply caught in his thoughts, Dr. Vikram relaxed while he was on a sabbatical from the APJ Abdul Kalam institute of Advanced Sciences. He chose to spend this time as a visiting scientist in MIT. He was trying to replicate his success with Solar technology but now with a new set of materials. Suddenly his smart band started beeping. He has receiving a call from Sinha. There was a new goal : Hyperloop running completely on Solar power….hmmmm.
