6. Infrastructure - fix pot holes/relay roads/build flyovers in critical areas - railway crossings, over-crowded places. Popuralize public transportation - bring in metro with all amenities and connect critical areas. 7. Ensure all mesaures are taken to bring IT/software to Coimbatore, esp. big companies like Infosys, TCs via transparency, subsidy (known to all - coimbatore is an education hub and has all the essential ingredients to have huge IT presence).

4. Tree-plantation: establish a small group of staff to advertize, trigger and coordinate tree plantation (via collaboration with educational institutions/hospitals/government offices/etc. - e.g., having a tree-plantation hour every hour). 5. Have CCTVs in areas where bribes/irregularities are believed to prevail - police stations/traffic lights/government offices and establish a simple mechanism for citizens to access the footages for incidents related to them.

Contd...Have a scrap yard outside city limits with incentives to citizens who dispose off their unworthy vehicles. Make PUC compulsory with 6 months validity. Implement traffic rules strictly not like what is happening now where Commissioner of Police distributes helmets & thereafter the cops in uniform are themselves driving without helmets esp woman cops and passenger buses are carrying upto 5 feet load on rooftop.Take NCC,NSS &ExServicemen Association's help in enforcing traffic discipline.
