Dear Frds,
It is heartening that Mr.Doiphode has been appointed as the SR.Police Commissioner Traffic D.N.NAGAR.
In our experience, whenever a new person takes charge of a senior post in ANY Government body , by the time that person understands the systems and how things work, their term is almost over. As in the case of Mr.Shailesh Gandhi.
Hence, unless there is clarity of purpose at the start, there is a chance either of that person soon thinking from the government’s point of view, and accepting the limitations of government, or of that person getting frustrated and opting to leave and work from outside the government.
In my case Mr. Doiphode has come from Police force , he has never work in any traffic department so regarding the rules of traffic he is unaware. He knows only what is been in the books of Law or whatever he has seen , but very unpractible person .At Dadbhai Naroji Rd at Vile Parle West the road going to the east by fly over. Their are Sign boards put as No Entry for heavy vaehicles which is mention in the Notification only for fly over and not for the lane. In that lane 2 big schools are their with almost 5000 students. Were 15 school buses r plying, Now after seeing the board he has put on duty 2 police officer not to allow even school buses to go that lane . From last 10 yrs fly over bridge was their were buses dont go , but till the school inside compound used to go, suddenly why now he has stopped .He wants students to walk upto 300 meters on S.V.RD to take the school bus. How do you expect 4 yrs to 12 yrs child to walk 300 meters in the busy traffic and cross S.V.RD and teke bus , Is it practical.
On 10th sept onwards bus people has going on strike, and parents are taking morchas and rasta roko. AM I RIGHT OR WRONG.
