In 2004, the price of refined bitumen was as low as Rs 13,000 per tonne, whereas today it stands at over Rs 21,000, a 40% increase in bitumen prices. The Rakesh Mohan Committee (1996) estimated that the economic cost of bad roads ranges from Rs 20,000-30,000 crore (Rs 200-300 billion) annually over and above the Rs 5,500 crore of social costs of the accidents caused by them.
With a large section of people in cities leading sedentary but highly stressful lives. Many children and young adults are being diagnosed with Type-2 diabetes, which was unheard of few years ago. In addition to heredity, lack of physical activity and obesity is blamed for this.

Points to Probe
Can neighborhood areas restrict access to heavy, fast moving or polluting automobiles and only allow Neighborhood Vehicles e.g. bicycles, electric or CNG vehicles weight < 150 kgs peak speed < 30 kmph?
Should it be mandatory for vehicles to have working, accurate odometers and for the odometer reading to be recorded every time a vehicle has to refuel, like households are required to have proper electricity meters? A new category for private owned vehicles should be created as Shared Use Vehicles (SUVs) where such vehicles can be enrolled with Mobility Service Providers for high occupancy usage based on prescribed terms and conditions Government should facilitate setting up of multi-storied parking stations for such SUVs with appropriate capacity and location

Green Vaishali
Trees are considered as members of the community as friends, as children and as guardian angels in the Indian tradition. Planting and nurturing trees are considered noble activities and their growth and good health is held as auspicious. In an endeavor to revive this tradition in a modern idiom and create emotional bonding, the Society proposes to invite and support all residents to plant trees. Tree Plantation on birthdays, marriage anniversary as well as in the loving memory of the departed souls. In this program, we aim to plant 1 lakh trees by 5th of June, 2013 and to ensure their survival and good care.
