Nashik Launches 'Healthy Streets' to Ease Traffic Congestion
The city of Nashik is teaming up with a group called ITDP to make its streets healthier and easier to get around.
They're doing this by improving roads, buses, and making it easier for people to walk and bike.
ITDP will help Nashik by providing advice and training.
They'll also create new rules to help the city.
They plan to gather feedback from citizens through surveys and meetings.
The goal is to make the city better for everyone, reduce pollution, and serve as an example for other cities to follow.
