BRTS, Ahmedabad

Todays newspaper shows news of an accident of BRTS trial run Bus with Private Vehicle at Pragatinagar Garden Cross road. Newspaper has disclosed the news by taking sides of the public and has shown inefficiency of the BRTS projects.
In India it is a general tendency to take side of the public when one of the side is of the Local authority, or government. Newspaper always plays the role of opposition party. I was there when that incident happened. BRTS bus was following the rules of traffic. But that Private Vehicle Driver was seemed to be in hurry. He was not following the rules even when Traffic police in charge, had given signal to stop traffic from that side and the person didn't follow it and that accident happened.
It also a general tendency of the local public to take a stand of the public when such accident happens with AMTS bus. In this case also public took a stand of Public as against the BRTS bus driver and the police did nothing to stop the further incident as police had come across with such incindents in the past and public had damaged several crores of assets as mob has no mind.

Hope people of Ahmedabad will dare to take stand of the Rules and order as against the authorities or Govt. and help them keep order and Law in the city.
