Thumps Delhi ! Odd & Even Clicked; Team Kejriwal has last Hurrah

It was a decision fraught with dangers. It could have brought him and his men on the ground, scripting his political obituary. But displaying steel nerves the team Kejriwal was on the batting crease to take on bouncers from all corners.
On the last day of the fortnight long car rationing plan in one of the most polluted cities of the world the skipper and his team had a last Hurrah with support of Aam Admi.
Cutting across social and official barriers millions of people boarded public transport much to chagrin of the world.
   Over fifty three lakh commuters boarded city buses daily and situation in metro trains was equally baffling more than twenty lakh people swapped cards and sunk tokens at entry and exit gates.
It looked that it was a world record that about seventy lakh people used public transport daily.
    Pollution Meters may have not sounded very encouraging but fact of the matter is that plan worked. Traffic congestion was minimum and people were on the whole were happy on smooth runs on their turn of odd or even number registration plate.
    Naysayers wore sheepish smiles but chinks of such dare devil initiatives also came to fore for future lessons more buses, more trips of metro with more than eight coaches, CNG facilities, luxury buses ,premium coaches in metros.
   More cities bitten by mega bug of jams should follow suite with gentle dose of ten days at least six times a year with well thought of exemptions.
    Commitments made by world community at COP 21 in Paris to check pollution should also be kept in mind for developing carbon sinks. ( The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI) in its analysis of the scheme has said that although the percentage effect could be small, but given the concentrations as high as in Delhi, the absolute reductions in PM 2.5 concentrations are "significant" as it can help reduce health impacts. TERI said that the scheme has brought "considerable" additional benefits including reducing on road congestion, increase of average car speeds, reduced fuel usage and made s significant impact on public awareness levels on air pollution and its impacts on human health).

Judges , top Bureaucrats, diplomats showed the way and many of them car pooled and rode to cycles and Delhi Ministers batted from the front and used public transport and went ro their high domed offices in polled cars. All worked and people came as an anchor sheet to ensure that the scheme clicked.
