Safety in paid parking zones Tribune News Service
Chandigarh, September 11 Chandgothia contended that during the pendency of the main case, urgent interim orders must be passed directing installation of CCTV cameras and restraining contractors from allowing more cars in the parking area than its certified capacity. Deepali Puri, counsel for the municipal corporation, contended that the MC was doing enough to manage the parking areas and no orders were required to be passed in this regard. Chandgothia alleged that the paid parking system introduced by the defendants in 2007, even after five years of working, still suffered from several defects and deficiencies, leading to the harassment of the public at large. It has been contended that the parking contractors are interested only in collecting money, without giving proper services in return. Apart from the attitude and malafide objective of the contractors, the public nuisance is compounded due to the failure of the defendants to make optimum use of all relevant spaces available for parking in the city.
