Jumping Of Traffic Lights 24-Aug-10 08:21pm
BY: Er. S. S. UTREJA Reply
Traffic lights are installed at Agar Nagar Chowk, Ludhiana. But it has been noticed that no body bothers about the Red light and most of the vehicle Drivers jump the Red light at a full speed, taking advantage of the non-posting of traffic constable at that place. Jumping of red light not only creats accidents but it also creats great inconvenience, hardship and risk to the padestarians who want to cross road during red light. Such traffic violations must be checked.

Ludhiana Lacks A Spot In The Lap Of Nature 5-2-2010 6:56
BY: Pratima Singh Reply
Ludhiana lacks a spot in the lap of nature. One can only enjoy a good eating joint in the name of outings. There is scarcity of leisure parks where a family can enjoy a peaceful and relaxed evenings. There is no dearth of people spending money on the family occasion to showoff their much earned wealth but these affluent people has never given a second thought for the maintenance of parks or any recreational spot. Its high time to think about these facilities in a much renowned town like Ludhiana. The Sidhwan canal can effectively be used for boating purposes & instead of using the compatible areas for malls or other commercial purposes, they should be taken by some sports organisation so as to provide the world with more sportsperson from this industrial town. There is a dire need for the younger generation of Ludhiana to taste the glory of success in the field of sports. MCL should come forward to initiate this much-awaited step for for the welfare of the people.
Sobha Yatras Are Nothing More Than A Public Harassment 3-2-2010 6:5
BY: Sandeep Kumar Reply
What surprises me is that a large number of senior eminent citizens of the city who should be sitting in the planning forums of the city to help evolve systems to avoid public inconveniences are in fact themselves a part of groups that organise yatras or functions which are nothing more than a public harassment.

The yatras were fine when there were fewer people living here. Now the traffic inflow on roads has multiplies several times and so has the human traffic.

I know it is not going to be easy to have the sobha yatras stopped immediately because one cannot change the customs, which are decades old. Some administrator has to take the initiative and hold discussions with different communities first followed by a discussion for a final discussion on a common forum.

I am sure none of the communities will be against steps, which save public inconveniences.
Traffic Chaos In Ludhiana City 3-2-2010 6:2
BY: Tarun Shorey Reply
In a busy city like Ludhiana, where everywhere there is traffic chaos, no one should be allowed to do "shobha yatras" or put tents on any road. Besides streamlining the yatras on earmarked places and open spaces, which do not hamper the normal commuters on roads, alongside, the administration should allow a single auto-rickshaw only for five days in a week by issuing them special stickers.

The administration should ensure that under normal circumstances there should be nothing stopping the normal traffic flow on the city roads.
Pollution In Ludhiana 3-1-2010 11:18
BY: Simran Reply
Pollution in Ludhiana has reached an alarming stage. And the residents are not oblivious of it. Falling prey to several respiratory disorders, many commuters, especially two-wheeler drivers, have started covering their noses to ward off harmful effects of poisonous air. With the city having earned the dubious distinction of being the most polluted city in the northern region, CNG seems to be the only solution. Hope the authorities wake up much sooner than later and help the humanity facing health threat from toxic air.
The Chaos On The Ludhiana Roads 3-1-2010 11:12
BY: Paramjit Singh Reply
With the city population and number of vehicles in the industrial hub of the state booming at a maddening pace, the chaos on the roads seems to increase with each passing day. Traffic cops and those responsible for the management of traffic at their wits' end, it has virtually become an ordeal for the people to move on roads. What to talk of cars, three-wheelers and two-wheelers, even the pedestrians find it difficult to go from one place to another, or to cross roads or intersections. In particular, the stretch from Domoria Bridge up to T-junction leading to Deepak Cinema on the right and Old Sabzi Mandi to the left remains a problematic point. The traffic police has tried various remedies like putting up road dividers and making the section one-way without much success for the simple reason that volume of traffic is too much for the road and the T-junction. It will take much more than half-hearted and shoddy traffic planning. Is some body listening ?
Ludhiana Traffic Is Going Terribly Haywire 3-1-2010 11:9
BY: Rattan Jain Reply
The traffic is going terribly haywire in Ludhiana. Think of any time in 24 hours, be it the day or the night, there is always the possibility of getting stranded in a traffic jam. So much so, even during the midnight, people do not have any certainty that they will reach their destination in time, particularly along the Ludhiana-Ferozepur Road and that too during the marriage season.

Some day the 7 km distance from Raj Guru Nagar to Mullanpur Dakha took people four hours, thanks to the reckless driving by the people themselves. In the mad race to overtake others, the vehicles get stuck and traffic comes to a virtual halt. It is not only the people going to the marriage palaces for attending functions, but people coming from far-off places like Moga, Muktsar, Ferozepur and Faridkot also have a harrowing experience. And the worst sufferers are the emergency patients who are referred to Ludhiana from these places.
Railway Lakkar Overbridge Is Defeating The Purpose 2-1-2010 10:58
BY: Inderbir Singh Reply
The railway overbridge that would come up in place of Lakkar Bridge would not be connected to the elevated road, defeating the purpose despite a cost of Rs 60 crore. As per the present design, the bridge is in a Y shape with the tail starting from the Civil Lines. While the downward ramp would end at the Central Post Office at Mata Rani Chowk, the upward ramp would start from Reikhy Cinema Chowk.

Though MC officials claim that this design would ease the movement of traffic, experts feel that it would worsen vehicular mobility. Municipal corporation should not go ahead with the project without consulting the experts once again.
General Complaints By The Public Against The Administration 13-11-2009 8:40
BY: Chetandeep Singh Reply
General complaints by the public against the district administration are steadily increasing and one has to grease the palm of officials to get any work done. Though the state government set up a 'district grievances removal committee' in December 2008, the body has not even met once to discuss residents' grievances. Crime in Ludhiana has also increased sharply with incidents of snatching and car lifting taking place almost every day. Even serious crimes like murders and robberies have become common place. Land grabbing by mafias has become routine. The police department has failed to convince city residents that their lives and property are safe in their hands.

The problem of smooth movement of vehicular traffic has become very acute and there does not seem to be any solution to the mess in the near future. Besides, illegal construction is coming up almost everywhere in the city with the ruling politicians in many cases backing the encroachers and land grabbers.

Traffic Challans 7-7-2009 21:5
BY: S. S. UTREJA Reply
Vehicle/Two wheeler drivers are challaned by the Traffic police on various irregularities such as non-tightening of belts, non-wearing of helmets etc. etc. and defaulters are asked to appear in D.T.O. office for paying the penality. It is very time consuming and lenghty process. The traffic police should be authorised to collect the penality amount by issuing valid receipt as is being done in many cities of other states. This will save the defaulters from harrasement and would also save the time & man-power of D.T.O. office
Neither Traffic Police Nor Traffic Lights 13-6-2009 10:45
BY: S. S. UTREJA Reply
The traffic lights on canal bridge adjoining B.R.S. Nagar on Ferozepur Road
generally remains off either due to power failure or due to some technical fault. During off lights, no traffic police man is seen there to control the traffic. This chowk diverts roads to six directions. In the absence of traffic lights and policeman, the drivers specially coming from SOUTH CITY or vice versa get confused in the middle of crossing. As such, immediate steps are required to be taken for deploying traffic police at this junction to control the traffic.
Tedious Income Tax Procedures 7-6-2009 7:57
BY: Mahesh Aneja Reply
In the name of Simplification,Procedures of Filing returns have been made entirely
Cumbersome.CBDT had changed the system of Filing TDS returns .Challan for deposit of TDS is yet not available.Firstly the new challan was to be used wef 1-4-09 and then this was postponed to take effect wef 1-6-09.There is no news yet.
For the Persons whose Income is below Taxable limits but whom's TDS has been deducted and they have to file returns to claim Income Tax refunds are more disappointed.Because of the change in Return Forms they have to give Unique Transaction Numbers for each deducted amount.There was no such system to alott
such a number till recently.The duty of alotting UTN for crores of transactions
effected during the last year has been given to NSDL.It seems impossible that they will be able to alott such UTN's of mamoth proportions befor due dates of Income Tax filing.The Sufferers will be poor asesses who have to claim refunds.
As every body knows that TDS limits are very low .
Traffic Police Looks For Other States Cars For Making Money 18-3-2009 8:47
BY: RAVINDER Reply
MOST OF POLICE MEN ON DUTY ON SAMRALA CHOCK TO JALANDHAR BY PASS,ARE ALWAYS LOOKING FOR OTHER STATE 'S CARS ETC. ,TAKE THEM TO A SIDE OF THE ROAD,HARASS DRIVER FOR COLLECTING MONEY & AFTER GETTING ONLY,LET THEM GO WHILE EVEN I THINK ONLY INSPECTOR LEVEL OFFICERS ARE AUTHORISED FOR CHALLANS BUT EVEN CONSTABLES ARE COLLECTING MONEY FROM THEM ....WHILE HARDLY (ALMOST NEVER) CARE TO ORGANISE TRAFFIC,MOST OF THE PRIVATE/GOVT. BUSES STOP ON ALL ROUND ABOUTS,BLOCKING TRAFFIC BUT NEVER EVER SEEN ANY POLICE MAN STOPPING THEM OR NOT ALLOWING THEM TO PARK THEIR BUSES THERE...
I THINK SENIOR OFFICERS SHOULD LOOK INTO THIS & FINE BUS DRIVERS HEAVELY SO THAT THEY NEVER DARE TO STOP THEIR BUSES AT ROUND ABOUTS & ALSO NO CONSTABLE LEVEL POLICE MAN STOP CARS/TRUCK OF OTHER STATES FOR CHECKING THEIR PAPERS...& ULTIMATELY MAKE MONEY AS THIS ALSO LEAVES VERY BAD IMPRESSION ON THEM AGAINST POLICE PERSONALS WHILE ALL ARE NOT SAME...
Ludhianavis Have Become Resilient To Filth And Chaos - 1 25-2-2009 23:12
BY: Anand Rao Reply
Ludhiana presents a picture of total civic chaos — broken roads, festering garbage dumps, stinking corners & massive encroachments. It is amazing that the vulgarly rich Ludhianavis, in spite of having the highest number of institutions of higher education in their city, have become resilient to such disorder & filth. But the biggest problem of the city remains the traffic chaos.

Long time ago, great economist and U S ambassador to India John Kenneth Galbriath used a phrase 'functioning anarch' to describe the way Bihar was being run. It meant blatant inability of the Government and administration to uphold the law and the amazing ability of the rich, powerful & even ordinary muscleman to ridicule the law & dare the law-enforcement officers to have their way. This holds true for Ludhiana's traffic as well. Thousands of auto-rickshaws spewing smoke and making deafening noise run without any valid licence, arbitrarily stop in the middle of the road and turn in any direction they like
Traffic Police Officers Or Clerks ? 3-2-2009 23:9
BY: Amandeep Singh Reply
It is a common site to see that after you pass thru a traffic jam, you will often see a Traffic Police ASI/SI busy writing Challans of already harassed and irritated vehicle drivers on the one pretext or the other ? These officers look like doing the job of a mere Clerk on the busy road. Why don't they entrust these menial clerical jobs to the real deptt clerks and the police officers can engage themselves to regulating traffic and punish the erring drivers by Signing on the respective challan written by the Clerk. It is often a pathatic site to see a Traffic Police officer holding a bulky Challan book and skipping the most important job of regulating the much needed traffic problem on the city roads.
The Most Important Problem Being Faced By Ludhianvis 3-2-2009 1:13
BY: Manmohan Singh Reply
Dear Inder Bir Ji,

Thanks for highlighting the most important problem being faced by Ludhianvis. I feek the following may help :

1. Side parking lanes be painted in Yellow and whosoever does toch the Yellow line must be punished.

2. Every important crossing must have clearly marked STOP lines. Normally people drive half way ahead causing chaos.

3. 3-Wheeler STOP stands should be marked clearly on all important roads, so that these 3-wheelers should stop at these very STOP signs to take/ leave their passengers.

4. All 3-wheelers should have working Signal indicators/ Tail lights as per Vehicle Act mandatory.

I feel the above can play an important role to ease this burning problem.

More Later.

Manmohan Singh (Kundan)

Traffic Bottlenecks - Closed Phataks 30-1-2009 4:31
BY: Dr Thind www.thind.com Reply
The traffic situation in Ludhiana is basically directed by railways . just check
where there is rush railway line is associated with it .why can not they merge the
dhuri railway line & freozpur railway line into delhi line & then divert it towards
their destinations from doraha . next why do not they open up the railway crossings
where over bridges have been built . just to reduce the work load of railways . but
think of a poor rehri wala /rickshawala/ cart man who has to go up the heights
of an over bridge at a very slow speed . if the railway phatak is open , he will
not be a hurdle for fast moving vehicles on the over bridge .hope it helps

Traffic Police 29-1-2009 11:46
BY: RAJESH GUPTA Reply
All trafic police staff have keen interest to see the person who void the rule & regulations for making challan etc. should instead take care of their duties regarding controlling traffic.when the traffic lights switch off, specially in small crossings, most of the staff still stand ideally here & there instead of controlling manually.there must be proper control on mainly buses & threewheelers who makes the traffic very upset.there is a need of organizes traffic seminars to different communities in different times e.g general public, rickshaw puulers,drivers of three wheelers,buses & other commercial transport.
Roundabouts In The City Are The Major Traffic Problem 29-1-2009 7:53
BY: Amit Gupta Reply
Roundabouts in the city are posing a major challenge for the traffic police to ensure smooth flow of vehicles. With their large circumference and location mostly at staggered junctions, the rotaries offer a piquant problem for the traffic management. These may be the only green spots visible in the concrete jungle but a survey has singled out some of the rotaries that have become obsolete in smooth flow of traffic and were in fact turning into traffic chokepoints. The city residents already suffer the choking jams at these places. Instead of providing orderly movement of traffic and preventing direct conflict, the rotaries are not sufficient for the volume of traffic entering from all approaches.

It is mainly due to the staggered junctions like the Fountain Chowk where 6 roads meet that the installation of traffic lights without removing the rotary had proved a failure. Interestingly, even if the chowk is removed, the staggered junction still poses a problem.
Traffic Mess 29-1-2009 6:41

Traffic system is unsystematic.No control on the fast driving people or people drive with drinks.There is no respect of traffic lights.It is problem,which can be resolved only with HONEST INTENTION.It should be controlled by involving people and forming a joint commette of police and public.Otherwise it would be turned into a nightmare to travell on Ludhiana roads
Ludhiana City Is Facing Lot Of Traffic & Transport Problems 29-1-2009 5:48
BY: H.L. Lamba Reply
Ludhiana city is facing a lot of problems in the field of traffic and transport planning which needs immediate steps to be taken by the department concerned. Municipal corporation, Ludhiana, should engage well experienced and reputed consultants in the field of traffic engineering and transport planning for the upgradation of transport infrastructure of the city which include junction improvement and landscaping along road side.

The whole city needs to be surveyed and studied to identify traffic and travel problem for the improvement of road intersection. For this purpose, experts should prepare a detailed report about encroachments made by big shopkeepers and shopping complexes. The MC should provide suitable places for open markets with no traffic problem on the road side. The traffic police should strictly enforce the traffic rules and traffic lights be put in the order. Public in general and social welfare associations in particular should come forward to assist the authority.
Only God Can Save Our City 29-1-2009 5:38
BY: Maninder Grewal Reply
The traffic in our Ludhiana City had totally gone haywire. Hawkers & Rehri sellers had encroached on the roads further causing bottle necks in traffic.

Ludhiana is turning a nightmarish city to live as far as traffic woes are concerned. Could something be done to ease traffic problems so that the people can be a little more at ease ?

Only God can save our city...........
