By Rohan
Owning a car has really become a status symbol these days. The arrival of a number cars on the roads of India brought a revolution in the world of automobiles. But the increase in the number of cars has added to various pollution problems. The smoke emitting Vehicles have made cities like Delhi living gas chambers. The new policy of economic liberalisation opened doors for the multi-nationals. New Santros, Indicas, Fords, B.M.Ws, Honda City have become status symbols for the upper middle classes.
The growing number of vehicles, have polluted the atmosphere. The amount of harmful gases in the air is alarmingly on the rise. They affect our eyes and lungs giving rise to all kinds of respiratory diseases.
The people should take urgent steps to reduce these man-made problems. The introduction of the Metro will ease the traffic on the roads of Delhi. It will provide a comfortable, cleaner and cheaper alternative to the officegoers. The day is not very far when the unconventional source of energy will be used to drive cars. These steps will certainly help to reduce many man-made problems caused by the growing number of cars.
