Gurgaon Car Free Day

The 12th Car Free Day was held in Gurgaon on Tuesday, with judges and school students joining the initiative to keep the cyber city free of pollution and traffic snarls. About 17 judges, led by sessions judge H S Thakur, took part in a cycle rally as part of the initiative.

A total of 1,138 motorists were fined in Gurgaon for various offences under the Motor Vehicles Act during the 'Car Free Day', police said on Wednesday.

The highlight on the morning of Gurgaon's first car-free Tuesday was police commissioner Navdeep Singh Virk riding a bicycle on magically empty roads in a city where mile-long jams are the norm. And this was rush hour.
