Share-profit ratio in Vasai- Virar

If you haven't enjoyed the half-a-bum ride in an auto, have you ever lived in Mumbai?

Did you know there are Auto-rickshaws in Vasai that run on petrol? Yes, you read it right. The drivers in Vasai, located in the outskirts of Mumbai  pay more than 70 rupees for a litre of petrol. The mileage of the vehicle is some 22-25 KM per litre and the capacity of the tank is 8 litres. That means a lot more than 500 rupees for a full tank. 

Have you ever wondered why there are so many share autos in Vasai-Virar? This is the reason why. There is not a single petrol pump with Compressed Natural Gas(CNG) availability. There was even a petition online regarding the same. However, with only 109 supporters that went in vain. So to cover up for the money spent on fuel, the autos in these areas do not run on meter. 

Surprisingly, I met a driver who owned a CNG vehicle. When I asked him about his refilling pump, he told me that he goes all the way to Thane for it. Now that is that. Shifting from that story, I was also introduced to a famous policeman. Mr. Bavdekar(could not get his first name). 

While I spotted a minor accident near the station, my driver pointed to Mr. Bavdekar. His style was no less than Singham. He wore blue T-shirt & jeans with sports shoes, and had sunglasses on. My driver informed me that he started his career as a traffic police and was then promoted to Mumbai Police. Driver later added that every policemen who came to Vasai became successful. 

Now why is that so? That's a story to explore next time. Until then, if you ever visit these places do not forget enjoy the ride, balancing half-a-bum, next to the driver.
