It's worse than ever. The reason Bombay's public transport is better is because of the higher order of discipline. People here just think honking on the roads is their birth right. They fail to follow rules, pay off policemen and never get noticed. Most people prefer to take direct buses which is never possible in Delhi. If you need to get to Vasant Kunj, there are many going from the Malai Mandir stand, probably the most. The Metro is probably the only thing I can feel proud of in Delhi. The DMRC rocks. And a metro station is being built just 500 yards from my house. I never said Delhi is a safe place for girls. It’s worse than ever.

Its been almost an year since I've been there but yeah, like Aditya, I doubt the scene will ever change completely, but hey, good to know things have improved.

Don't remember much, but have sure heard about it being a great place. Would like to go there again. Tania, Going clubbing with my college friends from Dubai who live in Mumbai and hopefully other hot friends of my friends. Abhishek, It has been quite sometime and I remember this time round when I came to Delhi for some days the Auto wallahs did agree to go by the Meter, but I was so surprised and shocked that I was happy with the bargaining process. At least I wouldn't get conned by rigged meters and other things. The scene I doubt has changed fully, and probably won't in the near future too. Ask Tania and other girls how many will think about Autos at night when alone and how many would dare to think that after midnight. I don't have much experience with DTC, mostly because barely any buses ply regularly in the Vasant Kunj area. The few that do, have bus-stands located far-off, but still they really really pale in comparison to Bombay's BEST (Bus services) Wacko, My first five years of my life I was in Calcutta.

The government has come to some sort of agreement and increased the rates to a level acceptable by the rickshaw drivers. Now you get to go by the meter to most places. Otherwise, DTC zindabaad.
