Health- To provide world class health facilities at lower cost, we will need to bring in one of these two things. a) either bring in rate curbs on the private hospitals or b) increase the quality in the government hospitals. This can be done by improving infrastructure and increasing the pay to people employed in government hospitals

IT solutions (i) Auto-detect bus charges using GPS & using smartphone apps ( no need of tickets or smartcards). more details can be provided. (ii) Single consolidated bill for every government offerings (like school, property tax,TNEB etc) to emerge into people-centric mode of billing than Govt dept centric mode. Enterprise system need to implemented and connect all departments. Payment receivables should be as good as any MNC.

3) Sanitation- More public restrooms are required, there are only few and far in between. Even more important than building the same is the maintenance of the same for which people have to be employed. A nominal fees can be charged to pay the persons employed. 4) IT Solutions- Please bring in digitalisation in application for various cards, passports etc. More importantly, make payments for all the applicationns online, to stop corruption

1) Transport- It is already being improved, with the metro and small buses. 2) Parking- We should enforce no parking areas strictly. Further to accommodat the rise in vehicles, we need to build multi level parkings. Also bring in more of the paid parking system, which will also give a benefit of revenue to the government.

Kindly make convenient to the elder and physically challenged passangers in MTC buses. Seates allotted for them is behind the driver seat which is too narrow and is over the wheels (uncomfortable even to normal passangers). Kindly allot them seat just straight to doors.
