    There is no one is the city that does know someone who has dies on the roads. Not a day goes by when we do not hear of accidents, our roads are turning into cemeteries. The challenges are so many, but the first question is How easy it is to get behind the wheel? What is the penalty for taking someone's life or seriously injuring someone on the road? Then we have all kinds of Drivers just to name a few Drunk, Careless, Reckless, Exhausted, Untrained, Aggressive, Speeding and most don't follow even the basic traffic rules and laws. To make matters even worse their vehicles on the road are NOT roadworthy, and last but not least the roads are a Mess. The Trucks and Busses just drive, everyone else just gets out of the way. It is time we all do some soul searching and whether, we like it or not, as most of us need to change

    See who are the major customers of the bars and wine shops in Surathkal, thokkottu, Deralakatte, Farangipete etc.. then you will understand that alcohol is haram only until the bars open in the evening!!!

    @Shankar Agreed to your point. Haram or not haram, whoever consumes it, let it get banned. Atleast people will not get intoxicated and kill others.
