This. My mil took me for a walk in Mumbai. I tried to walk om the sidewalk and she said "no you'll get hurt, you have to walk on the street with the cars". Rickshaws buzzed by me within inches, and the pollution was nauseating. I wish india would invest in people infrastructure.

From my impression last month (only been there for two weeks) there are some cities that are investing in elevated metro lines at least. But more needs to be done, even the smaller placed I've been to were clearly car first
