All of us  have seen the Metro plan which has been proposed for the easy transportation and there is a map given which shows the Kathmandu Metro Feasibility Study. All the credit to the social networking sites that any news small or big can be spread across in no time. And after a few days I read an article on the flyover bridge which will interconnect the other parts of the valley. On overhearing the discussions and seeing the comments 97% citizens were amused by this strategy and some of them said it’s practically out of reach or even if some day it happens our great grandchildren might travel in metros in the city of Kathmandu. The government must have thought about something for sure as these research and findings are coming on paper. We should be optimist and think that it can happen in the given time in our nation. Why become pessimist and attract something which has not happened at all. It’s quite an impossible task but what if?? The benefit if it happens is countless. To give it a thought there are no public transport which run in the night in the K-Town except the taxis which are again super expensive for general public.

What my query lies here is :: Why is there no improvement in the current transportation system?? Why are the roads which are already there (the smallest lanes) in cracks and broken making it for the drivers so difficult to drive their vehicles?? Why are the potholes around the city left just the same?? The officials should make what is existing better. That should be there first attempt. Likewise there are so many small but very important issues which need to be tackled. The roads are being expanded and it’s a great movement but at the same time it’s just the main roads that are being stretched. What about the different lanes along the main roads?? The development has to be overall on each and every aspect  and not just some parts in the country.

P.S.: A very famous proverb:: ROME WAS NOT BUILT IN ONE DAY BUT IT DEFINITELY WAS BUILT SOMEDAY::*
