Be fair to Rickshawpullers

Most of the people in our country do not have car but the policymakers make law for the rich people who have car and they have already banned rickshaws in several roads and are going to ban in other roads. But a rickshaw occupies very less space and usually carries two or three persons (including rickshaw puller). Whereas a private car occupies 2 to 5 times space than that of a rickshaw and on many occasions car carries only the driver. If a car enters a narrow road the whole road is blocked. But our policymakers never tried to ban and restrict the entrance of car in the narrow lanes because they have cars.
