Respected judges and teachers.
Today I stand before you to present my views for the motion on the topic ?Private cars should be banned in the congested commercial areas of the cities?. I believe that private cars should be banned in the congested commercial areas of the cities.
There is no end to the number of vehicles being driven around the city each day. Traffic jams has become a common problem and it has only increased in the last ten years. In my opinion, allowing private cars to congested commercial areas only adds to the problem. Long traffic jams not only means consumption of extra fuel but it also means that more number of people would suffer from respiratory diseases due to pollution. If people take public transport to work or hire a cab which runs on CNG and comes with an option of pooling on a regular basis, the problem of constantly rising pollution and heavy traffic jams can be reduced to a huge extent.
The earth belongs to all of us and it is our duty to keep it clean for our future generations. Thus, the first step towards protecting our environment should be to stop the excess use of petroleum and think of a more sustainable method for this problem.
Thank you for listening to my views patiently.
