Mr .Vidhyadar, My only suggstion to what u are doing so well ,would be as follows.
There are 2 issues..policing and space allocation/and planning. Policing alone will never work unless alternatives are available. like .. -Planned parking spaces for autos -Planned spaces for street vendors..they are as much citizens deserving a means to exist and livelihood as the rest of us. regards. vijayan menon On Jan 16, 6:05 am, TANIAPPA VIDYADHAR <[email protected]> wrote: > Triward Welfare Assns Federation held a meeting on 9th Jan at Patels Inn., > R.T.
