Knew about most of the stuff but "Cycling in Kolkata" was a new for me.

What they don't understand is that, the more you restrict/ban stuff, the more people get fascinated and attracted by it.

Most of the stuff does not make sense either. However, it is not just India. For example, gay sex is banned in Saudi arab too.

Ban cycling makes perfect sense considered from the right angle! Who are those making the laws, huh? I just somehow guess that some influential people, the same people which can afford cars and who are annoyed by high bicycle-traffic. Hey policeman, clean me the streets!
