Any public service entity would attract a microscopic view of its financial viability.

While we are all ok with such shops, as they provide quick solutions to auto/cab/bus drivers I am just wondering a) Are valid license holders to do the business? b) Is their vehicle authorized to use for such purposes (which shows white number plate)? c) Does the RTO rules permit usage of private vehicles for business use? d) Do the business owner pay taxes? |

I appriciate this facility by BTP/B-TRAC. This switch enables pedistrians to intervene automatic signal so that a green signal is forced for road crossing.
