The proposal mentions that every kind of transport facility, right from BEST buses to auto-rickshaws, should have this facility which can be used by citizens. A civic official, not willing to be named, said, "The municipal commissioner will be checking the feasibility of this proposal and whether this is doable and can be made mandatory or not. BMC doesn't have the power on traffic rules and vehicles running in the city so we will have to figure out how this can be implemented."
