Car exhaust fumes are big health hazards
I read recently that the fumes from a car’s exhaust could trigger heart disease and increase the risk of strokes. That has got me worried about the scene here with
Indian cars.
I know that most new cars in India comply with the Bharat stage 3 emission norms, but there are still those few cars that are not in this bracket. The scary ground reality is that pollution levels are soaring beyond average safety levels. Just a small ride through a traffic-congested road in a metro leaves you with a tarred face. And its not just metros that are affected by this! Even smaller cities and towns are now reaching that stage.
I think it would be best to have all cars fitted with LPG/CNG kits compulsorily. In that way, it would reduce the dependence on petrol/diesel engines which are more polluting.

This is nothing new, everybody is aware of the fact that, the fumes emitted out of a vehicle is deadly.It not only increases the heart disease but also breathing problems.But despite of all these problems our government is not concerned.Its a high time to take some serious action.
I feel sad that the smaller cities too are loosing their pristine environment to car pollution. I t is high time that Indians thought of some alternative fuel sources to run their cars. Else we will have an aging population will chronic breathing problems in the next twenty years. We will have only ourselves to blame for it.
