Solution = FREE Public Transportation
by usa on Jun 05, 2008 10:35 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Government must provide FREE Public Transportation across India to all its Citizens.

This will
1. Reduce demand on Oil.
2. Reduce Inflation
3. Save foreign exchange on Oil imports

Oil consumption       = 2.438 million bbl/day (2005 est.)
Oil imports       = 2.098 million bbl/day (2004 est.)

also if the govt provides free transportation (or transportation at minmal rates) across india ....not only oil imports will get greatly reduced.....
but also a very big BHOOOOOOT can be averted drastically.
The BHOOOOOOOT OF GLOBAL WARMING.
India should make compulsory the use of public transport and shold severely restrict the use of private vehicles ..such as two wheelers ...cars ...jeeps etc by increasing road tax on private vehicles upto rs 2 lakhs per annum.
(i.e on two wheelers :100000
on four wheelers :200000)
