1. Recently in our city the corporation repaired the roads and made nice broad footpaths for the pedestirants to walk. But I have seen that most of the people are very much habitual to walking on the roads that they never use the footpaths. In Pune the number of people getting killed in road accidents is increasing but still people do not use footpaths. Lot of elderly folks go for morning walk, but they always walk on the roads even if the footpaths are empty. Unless these are utilized the hawkers will start using them for selling their goods and again there wont be any footpaths left. When will this habit change and the awareness come to everyone ?
2. There was a drive by the govt. authorities for getting the Photo Election Card for which there was large turnout in our locality. Many folks came on their bikes that were parked in such a way on the road side that was blocking the road. I felt really disappointed that all had come to avail their rights as a citizen of India, but what about their responsibilities as a citizen ? I was so much disappointed that I felt these all should be denied their rights if they cannot be good citizens.
