PAID PARKING

[SIVA RAM]

DEAR FRIENDS

YOU GO TO A SHOP, THERE IS A GHMC CONTRACTOR GUY WAITING TO COLLECT PARKING FEE, YOU VISIT A TEMPLE, THERE IS ANOTHER ONE WAITING TO COLLECT Rs. 10 OR Rs. 5 FOR PARKING, YOU GO TO CMR AREA OR PARKLANE THERE'S ANOTHER ONE WAITING, LIKE A YAMA.

GHMC IS SUPPOSED TO ENSURE SUFFICIENT PARKING SPACE BEFORE IT GAVE BUIDLING PERMISSION. BUT GHMC ALLOTS CONGESTED ROADS FOR PARKING AND COLLECT HEFTY CHARGES. YOU WANT TO VISIT 2/3 SHOPS IN DIFFERENT LANES, YOU END UP PAYING Rs.30 WITHOUT YOU BUYING ANYTHING.OTHERWISE YOU HAVE TO WALK A LOT.

GHMC ALLOTS FREE PARKING FOR AUTOS AND PROVIDES BUS STOPS. BUT IT CAN NOT DO FOR 2/4 WHEELERS? WHY? ALL THIS FOR Rs. 60 LAKHS. WE PAY HEAVY PROPERTY TAXES AND INCOME TAXES. GHMC NEVER HAS CONSTRUCTED ANY PARKING SPACE, BUT IT CARVES OUT FROM ALREADY CONSTRCUTED ROADS, WHICH ARE FOR TRAVELLING NOT FOR PARKING.

I WONDER HOW MANY OF YOU AGREE WITH GHMC? AS LOK SATTA LEADER SAID, IT'S WE WHO HAVE TO COME OUT AND PROTEST, INSTEAD OF SITTING IN HOUSE AND DISCUSSING. ONLY THEN WE CAN HELP OURSELVES.

MAY I REQUEST PEOPLE TO PROTEST THIS GHMC PAID PARKING. PAID PARKING SHOULD BE BANNED IN THE CITY.
