This will avoid, petrol consumption of the country and inturn the dependence of oil imports which in turn is good for the economy. 2. Do not waste food that is left over in hotels. It can be at least served to beggars on the street. 3. Do not encourage Show room stores especially for food related things. They gather lakhs of tonnes to store and sell at a higher price to the common people. These big retail markets have to be discouraged. In the last few years, retail stores like, reliance fresh, heritage fresh, vishal retail, spensers, all have come up and buy huge volumes of rice, dal and essential commodities which is the main reason for this problem. 3. Enforce rules wherein people are forced to avoid buying agricultural lands for housing purpose. Day by day agricultural land is decreasing and farmers will vanish from india if this rate continues. Most of the buyers are politicians and their relatives, who in turn sell for huge prices. 4. Encourage people to have vegetable plants in their houses keeping some space in their house, atleast this will make them get their food for 7 days out of month. 5. Enforce 5 day work in all colleges and offices. And the holidays have to be spread along the week. This encourages people to use pub trnspt
