Kolkata and Beijing: Ban on Vehicles
It's a gruelling time for vehicles. With environmental pollution spreading its menace on a global basis, Kolkata and Beijing are on a centre stage of activity surrounding their transportation system. As the movement of two stroke autos have already been banned in Kolkata, Beijing woke up to the same difficulty on New Year's day with all yellow label cars off the streets. Under the directive of the Kolkata High Court, two stroke autos cause extensive pollution and damage to the environment. The guideline for converting to the LPG switch has already been provided and a massive crackdown is expected over the coming days if pollution norms are not implemented. Up till now only 5 autos have been banned in Kolkata but Beijing already faces the abolition of 350,000 vehicles. Just a spare of thought for the commuters in both the metropolis!
