Emails (Others): FW: THIS WILL HERALD A TRANSPORT REVOLUTION

Dear Shri Misraji :

At the outset , congratulations on NaviC

No one need have doubt that this system can – and will – bring unprecedented benefits to millions of citizens of India

I would highly appreciate , if you can confirm the feasibility of my suggestion , in my following blog

Warm Regards,

Un-Implementable Laws : Unstoppable Corruption

Mumbai Municipal Corporation is about to implement a “ Pay and Park “ policy for vehicles

THE POLICY

Parking charges will differ – and depend upon :

· Day parking vs Night Parking ( 8 pm to 8 am )

( Night time charges will be 50 % of Day time charges )

· Location Category

A = Prime Areas by Footfall

B = Busy Commercial Areas

C = Other Areas

· Vehicle Category

4 wheelers = Buses / Cars ( Day time : Rs 3960 – 1320 pm )

2 Wheelers = Motorcycles ( Day time : Rs 1650 – 550 pm )

· All rates will be different on Sunday and Public Holiday

· Only one slot will be available per car owner and housing societies will have to get in touch with their local ward office to know the particulars

· For each location category, there will be different rates for “ Hourly Parking “, ranging as follows :

# Cat A = Rs 60 / Cat B = Rs 40 / Cat C = Rs 20 ( for 4 wheelers )

# Cat A = Rs 15 / Cat B = Rs 5 / Cat C = Rs 5 ( for 2 wheelers )

Charges will change “ Parking Duration “ wise ( 1-3 hr / 3-6 hr / 6-12 hr / 12-24 hr )

· Parking will be FREE for certain designated areas

WILL APPLY TO

· There are some 30 lakh vehicles in Mumbai , comprising 17 lakh 2 wheelers and 9 lakh , 4 wheelers ( no idea about vehicles in transit or being scrapped ! )

· Some 500 new vehicles are getting registered DAILY

· More than half of these are being parked on public roads ( day and night )

· Mumbai boasts of 2000 km of public roads

WHO WILL ISSUE “ PARKING PERMITS “ ?

Some “ humans “ sitting in RTO or some other Government Department

WHAT PROOF WILL THEY NEED ?

· Domicile Certificate

· Aadhar Card

· Proof of Residential Addresses ( or Office Address ) from your building Societies

· Car Registration Book ( proof that car belongs to YOU )

· Letters from Society Secretaries confirming that you are not allotted any parking space inside the Society premises

· Letter from RTO re number of vehicles registered in your name

WHAT CRITERIA WILL BE USED WHILE GRANTING PARKING PERMIT ?

· Number of members in applicant’s family

· Number of vehicles in applicant’s family

· Duration of stay in Mumbai

· Duration of ownership of vehicles

· Location Category ( Resi / Office )

· Daily Travel direction and distance to be covered ( to / from )

· Whether Petrol / Diesel or Electric Vehicle

· Reason for not using “ Public Transport “

· Why you cannot use a 2 wheeler in place of a 4 wheeler ?

· Why you cannot work at night instead of in day time ? or a staggered shift ?

· If coming to work from outside Municipal Limits , why can’t you leave your vehicle outside and take a taxi ?

· Why can’t you take your family for a movie on a Sunday ?

CAN A HUMAN REJECT YOUR CLAIM BASED ON THESE CRITERIA ?

· That is the whole idea ! How else can he “ oblige “ you – for a “ consideration “ ?

CANNOT A SOFTWARE ALGORITHM ALLOT PARKING PERMITS FAIRLY ?

· No big deal for a software to decide : “ Who “ gets to park, “ Where and When “

· If actual traffic pattern ( including ,” which “vehicle was stationary – parked – and “ when “ – and for “ how long “ ) can be compiled for a period of 3 months , then , using BIG DATA ANALYTICS , this can be done by a software

WHAT WILL BE REQUIRED ?

· Every vehicle to be fitted with a RFID sensor / GPS locator app

· Exclusive Transponder on a Geo-Synchronous Satellite

CAN ANYTHING BE DONE TO AUTOMATE COLLECTION OF PARKING CHARGES ?

· No problem ! Since the days of coin-operated Parking Meters on footpaths , technology has made tremendous progress

· May be latest version of such meters do not require coins but swipe of a card

· Only problem is that you need an army of Traffic Policemen who can keep roaming Mumbai’s 2000 km of roads , to find out which Parking Meter is showing RED FLAG , indicating expiry of parking time !

And of course , “ hafta trade “ will flourish like anything !

WHAT OTHER TECHNOLOGIES CAN HELP ?

· Shri Nitin Gadkariji has already introduced automated toll gates where car owners need not stop to pay the toll charges . Vehicles which have installed pre-paid RFID sensors can just whiz pass ! Toll amount gets deducted / transferred , automatically

There is no technological difficulty in “ reversing “ this application for stationary vehicles !

· Then there are drones !

An army of drones can keep tab ( 24*7 ) of all stationary vehicles , find those which are stationary at the same GPS location for more than 10 minutes and deduct the appropriate “ parking charges “ from those pre-paid RFID sensors , installed in all vehicles . No rocket science this ! Vehicle batteries will supply power to RFID chips

· And if you do not want to track / monitor / control , an army of DRONES , then just ask ISRO to launch a Geo-Synchronous Satellite to do the same job for ALL the vehicles in ALL the cities of India !

WHY DO WE NEED TO DECIDE , WHO WILL / CAN , PARK WHERE AND WHEN AND FOR HOW LONG ?

Let vehicle owners park any number of vehicles , anywhere and at any time and for any period – if they manage to find a parking slot !

As long as vehicles are installed with pre-paid RFID chips , our Geo Satellite will keep collecting parking charges and transfer to the bank account of Mumbai Municipal Corporation !

NO HUMAN INTERVENTION !

NO ARBITRARY DECISIONS !

NO NEED FOR MILLIONS OF APPLICATIONS TO BE PROCESSED !

NO NEED FOR COLLECTION MACHINERY !

NO ARMY OF TRAFFIC POLICE TO CHECK PARKING VIOLATIONS !

NO SCOPE FOR HAFTAS !

And ISRO will do all of this for , may be Rs 100 crores , which is dirt cheap !

If all 20 crore vehicles get covered by this Satellite , cost per vehicle will be just Rs 5 / -

HOW MUCH CAN BMC EARN USING SUCH A SATELLITE ?

Here is an approx. estimate based on average of parking rates proposed by BMC :

# For Day / Night Parking Slots ( allotted )

· For 9 lakh 4 wheelers ….. Rs 237 Crore / month

· For 17 lakh 2 wheelers…. Rs 187 Crore / month

· For 4 lakh others………….. Rs 60 Crore / month

# For hourly rate parking ( non-alloted )

· All types of vehicles…….. Rs 300 Crore / month

TOTAL …………………………… Rs 784 Crore / month ( Rs 9,408 Cr / year )

Now it is not difficult for NDA Ministers concerned ( Shri Nitin Gadkariji / Shri Venkaiah Naiduji ) to compute such “ Revenue “ figures for ALL other municipalities and conclude that the Geo Satellite will pay for itself in justONE DAY !

Please , do not misunderstand me

I am not publishing this blog in order to influence the voters in tomorrow’s BMC elections , to vote for that party which promises to implement my suggestion !

Subject: THIS WILL HERALD A TRANSPORT REVOLUTION

Leveraging NaviC ?

-------------------------

{ Source : Times of India / 29 May 2017 }

------------------------

Navic = Navigation with Indian Constellation

That is the “ Operational Name “ for :

The Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System ( IRNSS ) , currently being tested for accuracy and likely to be available in market “ for public “ , early next year , as per Tapan Misra , the director of Ahmedabad-based Space Application Centre

IRNSS is our very own GPS system , with a position accuracy of 5 METRE , as compared to the American GPS ( which we currently use ) with an accuracy of 20-30 METRE !

Adds Tapan Misra :

“ We have developed digital chips to miniaturize technology ( for use in mobiles and handsets ) and experiments are on them . The system is being tested all across the country

This indigenous navigation system , which cost ISRO, Rs 1420 crore, will aid terrestrial , aerial and marine navigation , VEHICLE TRACKING and FLEET MANAGEMENT , disaster management , mapping and geodetic data capture , VISUAL and VOICE NAVIGATION for drivers “

CONTEXT :

A news report ,two days back said that Mumbai Municipality collected Rs 40 crore in April 2017 , under its new PARKING POLICY , from operation of 18 Parking Plots in south Mumbai

This compares with Rs 21 crore collected in March 2017 ( a 90 % increase )

I presume , each of this parking plot could accommodate , 100 cars

So , for 18 plots , that would work out to 1,800 cars ( round of to 2,000 )

But ,city of Mumbai boasts of 30 LAKH vehicles , of which , close to 20 LAKH are parked on the streets ( outside the compound walls of buildings )

That means , 1000 TIMES more vehicles are still to be covered ( needing 18,000 Parking Plots ? )

And , if some magical way can be found ( to collect Rs 2,000 per month from each vehicle which gets parked in those parking plots – and that too , only for parking at night ! ) , that could yield MCGM , a neat sum of Rs 400 CRORE per month !

PROBLEM :

There is no way , MCGM can find those 18,000 Parking Lots anywhere in the city !

SOLUTION :

Just ask Shri Tapan Misra :

“ Sir , can you get NaviC to track all the vehicles in Mumbai ( to begin with – and to extend to all the cities of India , by 2020 ) , as recommended in :

Where , I have said :

WHY DO WE NEED TO DECIDE , WHO WILL / CAN , PARK WHERE AND WHEN AND FOR HOW LONG ?

Let vehicle owners park any number of vehicles , anywhere and at any time and for any period – if they manage to find a parking slot !

As long as vehicles are installed with pre-paid RFID chips , our Geo Satellite will keep collecting parking charges and transfer to the bank account of Mumbai Municipal Corporation !

NO HUMAN INTERVENTION !

NO ARBITRARY DECISIONS !

NO NEED FOR MILLIONS OF APPLICATIONS TO BE PROCESSED !

NO NEED FOR COLLECTION MACHINERY !

NO ARMY OF TRAFFIC POLICE TO CHECK PARKING VIOLATIONS !

NO SCOPE FOR HAFTAS !

Dear Shri Gadkariji :

What I have suggested can become a reality , only through your celebrated “ Out – of – the – Box “ , thinking !
