Dehli's Aam Aadmi Party-led government announced steps to ensure that pedestrians, cyclists, and public transport users get preference over car users.
"A paradigm shift is occurring in the way residents travel in India's capital city," Jatin Anand and Sidhartha Roy.
"Connectivity at half-a-mile instead of the last mile, comfortable Metro journeys, and even a web-based app that guarantees pothole repair work within six hours will be part of a redesigning spree which aims to improve more than 1,200 km of road space."
"This represents a major shift in priorities. During the 15-year Sheila Dikshit-led Congress party rule in Delhi, the thrust was to provide a smoother ride to motorists by adding flyovers, underpasses, and signal-free roads."
