Sir, I have been writing in this column about the mobile menace of motorists. It is unfortunate that no concrete steps are taken by the stakeholders to control this menace. Of late, we see every second person on a bike or driving a car with the mobile stuck to his / her ear. Such practice…
Sir, I would like to bring it to the attention of the Traffic Police, the brazen disregard and violation of zebra crossing by vehicle-users.

After filling the form and standing in queue for payment at the cash counter, many persons will have to carry required denominations and enter the same in the respective cash challan.
