However, Mumbai has the infamous qualification of having one of the most polluted airs to breathe. The automobiles exhausts, along with industrial gaseous waste has undermined our efforts to make the air cleaner. The Traffic Policeman has the thankless job of standing amiidst the traffic, and breathing the polluted air, day in and day out.
Nobody ever thinks of the traffic policeman.
The Traffic Policeman has no choice but to stand and bear the polluted air. Thus it becomes our moral responsibility to see to it that his health is not adversely affected by his duty. Many major cities of the world, like Mexico City, Bangkok, Tokyo, Osaka, etc have given their traffic Policemen a better deal by providing him with masks, which atleast reduce the amout of pollution inhaled by their traffic policemen.
