Is it knee jerk reaction or action

Hi folks , may be should refer to my post on 10th of Nov'2012 on the plight of  the Silicon Valley of India and pedestrians at perennial risk of their lives.

Now comes a newsclip from Times of India today.

" Ride on footpath and you may lose driving licence".

About 1000 cases have been booked for cancellation  of their Driving licence. Although , I have my own doubts whether this would be a continuous exercise or just a knee jerk reaction. If it is a mandate I would be the happiest citizen of this city of mine.

I always remember my induction days in service in a Nationalised Bank,( I was about nearing 22 years of age as a Direct Recruit Officer),  where the exuberant Superior of mine quoted, that in life there are 4 critical alphabet R's.

What you Really, Really,Really and Really want you would get delivered in life. The first R was a wish, the second R went on to the next level of Desire, then the third one was a plan and last but not the least Execution of these fourth  "R".

Three decades have passed by but this is still embedded in my heart. Lose one of these R and you end up Rubbished.

Let the action of the Bangalore Cops deliver all these and to quoute the great Neil Armstrong, it would be a giant step for mankind.
