The DCP Traffic,
Thane City.

Respected Sir,

The traffic scenario in Thane is becoming pathetic as the vehicles are increasing. 
Not following traffic signals, parking/stopping in middle of road, many cars barging in to take turn, no respect to pedestrians are becoming very common and a big nuisance.

It is high time the traffic police do their job really well.
Given that Thane is next door to the finance capital of India, the traffic management is way too below par.
The number of vehicles having been increasing at a very rapid rate( appx 15,000/year), but the Traffic management is way too behind to cope up with the same.
Being senstiive Thane-ites we would like the following points to be implemented:

- Increase the traffic police staff at RTO's to keep pace with increasing number of vehicles. The RTO staff strength has been decreasing with the tremendous increase in traffic! Really difficult to comprehend!

- Limit the number of vehicle registered and establish a well-defined protocol to monitor/regulate the same.

- Ensure traffic rules more strictly to ensure people respect the rules and not take YOU for granted. Most of them are NOT scared of LAWS and don't follow rules. This is getting really bad and will get even worse in the future. 
Its a real shame that most of them go unpunished and have no respect for the rules.

- Thane now has many flyover bridges. What is most dangerous and annoying is that ST buses, Company buses and private tempos stop their vehicles abruptly at the fag end of the bridge after descending to offload people.
This causes the traffic following the vehicle to brake urgently. The other danger is that people who get off from such vehicles come in front of the vehicles coming from below the bridge causing accidents.
Please ensure that such stopping is not allowed and the vehicles should go on the left side of the road and stop.

The following areas are also very chaotic and it seems pretty much ignored. Please deploy more staff at the following locations:

- Teen Hath naka Junction,
- Cadbury Junction,
- Majiwade junction,
- Balkum junction,
- Saket Rd ( Kalwa Bridge),
- Waghbil junction,
- Kalwa junction.

These are just a few places where we see daily chaos. We are pretty sure there will be many such places that need to be looked into.

Its high time Thane Traffic Police gets more serious about the worsening traffic scenario and take strong steps towards ensuring less problems to transportation and the common man affected by the same.

Hope you will pay heed to our sincere request.

Regards,

For Alert Citizens Forum of India

The Vanjari caste

The Vanjari caste Nowadays, it has become fashion to tomtom your backwardness if you are in politics, govt sector or education. For obvious reasons. We find many political leaders proclaiming that they are backward - because that is what sells now. Hence, I decided to study the origins of various castes to find out who is more backward and how. Today, I give information about the Vanjari caste. The Vanjari is a community in India; they live spread throughout the country but have a sizeable population in the state of Maharashtra. They are also present in parts of Andhra Pradesh particularly in the districts of Telangana region. A Vanjari or a trader seems to be an occupational description, as it is etymologically identical with Vanijya which means trade or commerce. These tribes were in the past engaged in carrying grain and supplies for armies, before the time of cart-roads and railways. Thane Vanjaries are settled in 24 Villages in Thane District Viz. Bandhan, Boi...

 शेतजमीन विषयक महत्वाच्या संज्ञाः भाग-4 वहिवाट रस्ताः वहिवाट रस्ता ज्याला गावठाण रस्ता, शेत रस्ता, बांधावरील रस्ता वगैरे म्हणता येईल. तर असे आहे कि काळ बदलला, वाटेहिस्से जास्त पडु लागले, जमीनींचे भाव गगनाला भिडले तसे जमीनींचे मोठ्या प्रमाणात व्यवहार होऊ लागले आणी त्यामुळे जमिनीचे छोटे छोटे तुकडे झाले. जमीन मालक बदलले. त्यामुळे काही ठिकाणी नवीन खरेदीदाराला त्याच्या जमिनीत जाण्यासाठी रस्ताच उपलब्ध नाही पण शेती कसण्यासाठी शेतात मजूर घेऊन जावे लागते, बी-बियाणे, खते, यंत्रसामग्री इ. न्यावे लागते तसेच उत्पन्न निघाल्यानंतर माल उचलण्यासाठी बैलगाडी किंवा ट्रॅक्टर न्यावे लागते अश्यावेळी समोरचा जमीन मालक रस्ता देत नसेल तर शेतकऱ्याची मोठीच अडचण होते. आपल्या मालकीच्या जागेवर जाण्यासाठी रस्ता मिळणे हा प्रत्येकाचा कायदेशीर अधिकार (Right of Way) आहे. अश्यावेळी शेतकरी अथवा जमीनमालक यांना रस्त्याची मागणी शासनाकडे म्हणजेच सक्षम अधिकारी / तहसिलदार यांच्याकडे करता येते. वहिवाट प्रकरणातील तहसीलदार यांची भूमिका: जमीन महसूल कायद्याच्या कलम 143 नुसार जमीन धारण करणार्या व्यक्तीला स्वत:च्या मालकीच्या जमीनीत ...

Proposed Development Plan for greater Mumbai - 2034 ( In this article, the writer has very lucidly explained the entire concept of DP). The Draft Development Plan 2034 with its own overall positive prospective needs to be improvised.

However some of the amenities are made mandatory and are to be counted in FSI like society offi...
