Dear Vidyadhar

What about so called educated people who park the car on foot path and in 
case u ask -give back the answer -ARE U THE OWNER OF THE ROAD/footpath-we 
need self discipline first.Similarly, those who take their pets for walk and 
make other's foot path dirty and compare Bangalore to USA and Singapore

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.
