 Twin trouble [1]

Faced with growing congestion in the city, a doctor in Mumbai filed a petition in the high court. The petition was against mobile hoarding vans parked along the roads. The court upheld the petition and banned the vans citing reasons of safety and traffic congestion. The high court also cracked its whip on the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai, which it claimed had failed to check the growth of hoardings.
