A social media post claims that the cost of Japan's Maglev train that runs 310 mph is ₹616 crore, while the cost of 3.75 km ropeway built in Varanasi is ₹800 crore.

#PIBFactCheck

This claim is MISLEADING!

The Maglev train being mentioned in the post does NOT run in India.

The cost of Japan's single set of Maglev train has been wrongly compared to the total cost of Varanasi's ropeway project. The actual cost of the entire Maglev train project is much higher.
