If this doesn't iron out Delhi's traffic snarls, nothing will.
In what can be considered a rap, Delhi Urban Development Minister Raj Kumar Chauhan pulled up the city's traffic department for failing to control the road rush.u00a0
"The situation on Delhi's roads cannot be improved until the cops review traffic management," said Chauhan, in an exclusive interview to MiD DAY.
The minister feels the government has built enough flyovers to smoothen the traffic flow, but the system needs to be streamlined. "Constructing flyovers at every intersection is impossible. Delhi has enough roads. Now it is up to the traffic police to review its management and implement it effectively," Chauhan said.
"You will hardly find any traffic police at sections where they are required the most. The department doesn't even care to deploy enough men to man trouble spots. But we are in the process of overhauling the entire system and the situation should soon improve," he said, adding that Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit has often suggested the traffic police to review road management.
