Dear Hon CJI Shri
Khehar :
Linking PUC with
Insurance ?
Times
of India ( 11 Aug ) carried a new report titled :
“
PUC norm : 26m vehicles in 5 cities will face heat / No PUC, no insurance for
vehicles : SC “
In
a move aimed at reducing pollution caused by vehicular emissions, the Supreme
Court has directed the Centre to take steps to refuse insurance cover to
vehicles that do not have valid Pollution Under Control ( PUC ) certificate
The
Court also ordered the ministry to ensure proper calibration of instruments for
checking emission levels, certification of authorised manufacturers of emission
testing machines and registration and authentication of those operating the
machines for checking emission of vehicles
But
polluting the air is not the only nuisance value of India’s 200 million vehicles ( - and growing at 12 million every year ! )
Despite
dozens of government agencies and thousands of bureaucrats and lakhs of
policemen trying to control / monitor / regulate , vehicular transport , things
are only going “ from bad to worse “
!
Take
a look at the following ( partial ) list :
* Petrol / Diesel vehicles polluting
atmosphere – causing early deaths
· Deterioration of roads due to increased
traffic
· Road congestion leading to increased
travel time / petrol wastage
· Increasing road accidents , maiming and
killing people or damaging property
· No space for footpaths for walking
· No space for bicycle tracks
· Unbearable noise pollution causing
deafness
· No place for parking along public roads
( cause for corruption ? )
I
urge the Supreme Court to take suo moto notice of this blog and issue notices
to the
Central
and the State Governments , as to why they cannot implement :
And
come up with :
Surely
, Shri Gadkariji would like to be one-up on the Supreme
Court !
