Are you a resident of Mizoram capital Aizawl? If yes, do not buy a car until you have a garage or parking space. Grappled with constant traffic snarls, Mizoram has finally found a way out, banning the sale of vehicles to any individual who does not own a garage or parking space. A car purchased after August 30 will be viewed illegal if its owner does not possess a garage or parking space.

 "Development" is a word that is deeply entrenched into the consciousness of an average human being these days. Elections are fought and lost on this platform and the society is fascinated by it.
