A political awakening
We ask for a tough state, when we ourselves are a soft people. Most of us are selfish, inward-looking cowards

Ramesh, I'm curious to know if Janagraha is utilizing the PIL route to change the system. PIL looks to be the only promising way to bring change absent reform minded politicians. As a start, how about a PIL for mandatory annual emission as well as safety check of vehicles and its strict enforcement? I'm no legal expert, but right to life should be there in our Constitution, which is being violated by polluting vehicles. Are there any rules in India to phase out old vehicles causing pollution as well as posing a danger to people? Also, is it possible to have Bharat norms for auto rikshaws spewing smoke like there is no tomorrow? Hope you will take an interest in addressing the vehicular pollution that is killing our children slowly but surely.
