Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been consistently urging citizens across the country to reduce petrol and diesel consumption and turn fuel conservation into a people’s movement. In this context, the long convoy of Union Minister Rao Indrajit Singh during his visit to Gurugram has become the centre of discussion.
On Tuesday, when the minister’s convoy passed in front of the district secretariat in Gurugram, more than 10 vehicles were seen together. However, an important detail has emerged in this matter — the number of government vehicles in the convoy was very low. In fact, local people who maintain connections with the minister, party workers, and their acquaintances were enthusiastically following behind him in their private vehicles.
Although private cars were more in the convoy despite the messages about fuel conservation and expectations from public representatives, the sight of so many vehicles moving together on the road led to discussions among common people. At present, due to the crisis in West Asia and global circumstances, fuel conservation has become a national priority. In such a situation, people believe that when the Prime Minister himself is sending a message of simplicity and restrained use of resources, supporters and workers should also pay attention to the prudent use of vehicles during public tours.
The message from the public is that when a senior leader goes on a tour of an area, it is natural to show love and support towards them, but if workers also use collective vehicles or car pooling, it would strengthen Prime Minister Modi’s fuel saving campaign further. This would not only reduce traffic congestion on roads but also send a positive message in the interest of the environment and the economy.
