Odds and Evens in Delhi is working -Seeing is truly believing!

And all because I used this photograph clicked by me on my phone at about 12 noon on MG Road connecting Gurgaon to Delhi on my Twitter account-asunaina to show the world a scene that could only have been dreamt about- the road actually looked like this!

Must admit, like many others, I too had been extremely sceptical about this Odds and Even experiment and in fact, had spoken to many of my friends and acquaintances about my reservations.

Until I went to MG road yesterday.Then  through many other parts of Delhi. It could well have been a scene from about 30 years ago( the kind you see in old B.W photographs) except that it was really happening.

The icing on our cake- We could actually drive in to village Masoodpur, and emerge unscathed on the highway back to Gurgaon on our return journey at peak traffic hours at about 6 pm.

Now Rome wasn't built in a day and I'm not saying that magic happens overnight, but what I can say is that the Odd and Even experiment in Delhi certainly has our support.
