Question
How did the railways prove to be a blessing in disguise to Indians?
Solution
The railways proved to be a blessing in disguise for Indians because people living in far away places could travel freely and mix with one another. Regional feelings began to disappear and people felt for the first-time that they belonged to one country and had one destiny.
