The world today has been successfully converted into a large village with the help of efficient and fast moving means of transport. Transport has been able to achieve this with the help of an equally well-equipped means of communication. Therefore, one can observe that transport, communication, and trade are complementary to each other. 1. A highly developed means of transport and communication has been able to link India with the rest of the world despite its vast size and diversity. This has, in turn, enabled a sense of respect and toleration towards cultural diversity along with a unique kind of cultural exchange due to the increasing levels of interaction between people coming from different walks of life. 2. Railways, airways, waterways, newspapers, radio, television, cinema, internet and other various mediums of social media and communication have been contributing to its socio-economic progress in many ways. 3. The trades from local to international levels have further added to the vitality of the Indian economy as a whole. It has highly improved the lives of the people and also added to the growing amenities and facilities for the comforts of life.
