The vibrant city of Mumbai, home to over 12 Million people, is the financial capital of the country. In order to improve the quality of life, Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM) wishes to improve the basic infrastructure.The city has seen a significant increase in the private vehicles over last few years. It has become increasingly difficult for citizens to find public parking places while they are on the move. In order to ease the parking woes of the citizens, MCGM proposes to adopt and implement a new parking policy. The new parking policy elaborates on-street parking (residential parking, parking near schools, and parking for tourist places) and off-street parking. Moreover, MCGM also envisages web based parking to be implemented and issue receipts using hand held devices.

As a pilot project, it is proposed to implement the parking policy in ‘A’ ward after receiving the necessary approvals.

Suggestions are invited from the public at large for improvement of the proposed policy.

The draft policy can be seen here: https://mygov.in/frontendgeneral/pdf/parking-policy-20122014.pdf

Labour laws.- Dept of Labour has appointed inspectors to check the Compliances maintained By establishments.But the dept does make it their duty to educate about the law which is 1961 law. This hampers employment generation. This matter needs to be addressed

My opinion is a rule should be declared as if there are more than three people then they need to use four wheeler vehicles, otherwise there should be a heavy penalty like that. the corporate should arrange a single vehicle and should stop providing permission for travelling by their own vehicle to their office except sales/marketing. Here am concentrating more about cars and other suv's. I appreciate the views of others. jai hind

The problem of parking has to be tackled two ways: short term and long term. Short term means the people should park their vehicles in their residential / official buildings. If they park anywhere else including road, they have to pay for it. The long term policy should have multi-pronged approach such as constructing multi-level parking space or / and underground parking-both on payment basis.Additionally,people purchasing new vehicles must produce evidence of having parking space in advance.

Parking should be multistory or under ground. Architecture maps of residential house before construction should include basement parking to avoid congestion in street.

if we need an effective and honest police in our country, it's transfer and promotion must not be handled by the politicians. rather an independent committee comprising of retired judges, I.A.S ,I.P.S. and army officers should take care. Ministers may refer the cases to this committee.

Sex Related Crimes Among Students : Govt. should restrict and control Internet content with immediate effect to save our culture, sex education is good but video and pictures in the internet and social media may create mental and sex addicts patients rather than healthy society. Please act......

Sir-small business people are facing difficulty in making foreign payments through their bank accounts because they have to get FORM 15 CA and 15CB from chartered accountants. Chartered accountants charge for this and this is becoming an additional burden. Small business people are thus paying to make payments. Please look into this matter and provide a remedy.

All the ground level parkings(other than road sides &markets) should be constructed with multi level parking. this may be implemented in all the big cities.

I guess buying a car should be allowed only when someone provides proof for his/her own parking place. Thereby, everyone has to buy parking place first followed by car.

Visitor parking should compulsorily inside the societies. The forthcoming policy should make it mandatory for builders to make provision assuming say 20 % residents will have visitor with 2 and 4 wheeler. Why the municipalities should provide space on already crowded roads for the parking of visitors to various societies? Same rule should apply for new commercial complexes.
