Delhi’s Footpaths or Parking Lots? The Daily Struggle of Pedestrians

Walking in Delhi has become a daily battle for pedestrians. Footpaths, meant for walking, are now overrun by parked autos, thela gaadis, and encroachments, leaving little to no space for people to walk safely. This problem is especially severe in busy markets and residential areas, where sidewalks have turned into makeshift parking lots at night. The result? Pedestrians are forced onto the roads, dodging traffic and risking their lives. What are your experiences with this issue in your locality?
