It was just last week when Arvind Kejriwal government announced its plan to impose the new odd and even numbered car rule in Delhi to dater the growing air pollution. Since then, the decision has become a huge topic of debate in the automotive sector as well as for the authorities of various metro cities. Now, reportedly the traffic authorities of Mumbai are considering implementing the odd and even number system for cars in the smart city - Navi Mumbai.
A report in Economic Times claims that, the traffic authorities of Navi Mumbai are getting a little concerned with the rise in the number of vehicle registrations in Vashi and Panvel transport offices. In addition to that the city is also seeing floating population of around 10,000 tankers each day. Apparently the authorities want to keep the Navi Mumbai's Smart City tag alive and also hold-on to the rank of being the third cleanest city in the country.

Currently the traffic authorities of Navi Mumbai are just on observation mode and they want to wait and watch how effective will the proposal actually be. Commenting on the same DCP Arvind Salve (Traffic) said, "Let's see how the plan rolls out. It would help to reduce the number of vehicles but the state has to take a call." It was said that exemptions to emergency services and the network of public transportation as an alternative support system will be taken into consideration.

Mumbaikars are already doing a lot of things to reduce traffic.

Still i feel that all those who are driving car alone should be charged extra and all those who are driving with full capacity should be given some subsidy.
