Chandigarh, January 8
Punjab Governor and UT Administrator VP Singh Badnore today took a bicycle ride to promote cycling as an environment-friendly mode of transportation.
Badnore pedalled from the Raj Bhavan to the UT Secretariat building with UT Adviser Manoj Parida and all senior officials of the Administration to promote cycling as an environment-friendly mode of transportation and healthy lifestyle.
The Administrator took this initiative to encourage residents of the City Beautiful to adopt cycling and help the Administration in reducing environmental pollution. Riding bicycle is a safer and greener alternative that will reduce traffic congestion in the city.
A UT official said the move would usher in an era where green transportation like cycles would be widely used. With the expanse of cycle tracks in the city, bicyclists could easily divert themselves from other vehicular traffic.
