With a mission to decongest Chandigarh roads, the Chandigarh Welfare Trust has submitted an innovative and environment-friendly solution to this problem. Satnam Singh Sandhu, founder of the trust and Chancellor, Chandigarh University, submitted a proposal of Mass Rapid Transit System (MRTS) after meeting UT Adviser Dharam Pal in the presence of Banwari Lal Purohit, UT Administrator, at Raj Bhawan Friday. To be built on N-Choe, the proposed MRTS will help in decongesting city roads and decrease city pollution.
Chandigarh ranks among the cities with the highest number of vehicles per head in India, which has resulted in traffic jams and high pollution levels during the last ten years.
