Start campaign to motivate people to use public transport as much as possible. RTO officers can impose fine to the drivers of vehicle if exceeding norms of pollution in the area. Planning the urban development of raods with maximum use of undeways, subways , bridges could be started on PPP basis. Other could be starting feeder bus services to interconnect city road intra networks.

The solution is simple. Add a Metro Line on PPP basis there. People will prefer to use Metro than using vehicles. The Metro Contractor can earn revenue from operating the metro and govt can provide long term loan for building Metro. The government can always ban heavy vehicle operation during peak hours of day like in Delhi. Also the very old vehicles can easily be removed by authorities to reduce pollution. Start a school program to rope 1 tree per child/each year to make it green.

#VipinKumarMishra Apply maximum number of Govt Vehicles on #Roads #Rail. Because, Now! inflation on higher point and it can affect max number of people and their life style. If a person can travel 1km @5Rs/ but after social or public transport it can be @3Rs/Km. then he can use public transport. For example: Airlines charges in India, lowest in compare to worldwide but Railways better solution because of lowest price in compare to Buses and Airlines. So,boost up public service vehicles.

Traffic fine (all government fines) should be based on income or value of vehicle, whichever is higher. A fine of Rs 1000, hurts more a truck driver earning Rs 5000 per month and doesn't hurt much an IT employee earning Rs 50000 per month. The purpose of such fines should be to pinch people enough to discourage them from repeating such mistakes or committing them in the first place. Uniform fines for all fails to achieve this. Scandinavian nations implement such a system.

1) We need to implement flyovers where ever necessary. 2) We need to use cycles (if the traveling distance is less than 1 km). 3) No vehicles should be allowed to park on the road side.(If it effects traffic) 4) Dividers on the road should be strong and good Proud to be an indian

If a person drives without helmet then the traffic police is penalising the driver giving him a copy of challan. If govt will change the rule of penalising by providing him a helmet when he has been caught without helmet. After all the driver is paying the penalty for that. So, after getting the copy of challan he will have to visit to an specified center authorized by govt. when he will show the challan and will get new helmet. In this case he will be forced to wear helmet while driving.

IEEE is having the biggest database of papers and journals. All those papers are accessible only to it's members and on a payment basis. Why are they not providing the information free of cost? Dont you feel information and knowledge are to be shared? Like we get free inspiration from ted. Modi Govt can help us to register and free access of IEEE ?
