NEW DELHI: Law and order, traffic management and street crimes define a metropolis. They are among the prime indicators of a city’s ratings in terms of liveability. Usually, these would be electoral issues in assembly polls. But with the city’s police force controlled by central govt, law and order and traffic congestion are exercising the people's minds for the Lok Sabha elections.
Voters TOI spoke to talked about the frequent snatchings, robberies and rising instances of extortions in Delhi. Crimes against women were another concern as were incidents involving gangs. People also spoke about the absence of traffic management in many areas of Delhi, particularly in the trans-Yamuna region or on the city outskirts.
