Before introducing the second phase of the odd-even road rationing scheme in the national capital, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Monday came out with an elaborate plan to seek public opinion on it.

The government has decided to invite public suggestions on a six-point questionnaire that will initially be sought through email, while a a phone line would be introduced in the longer run.

The decision in this regard was taken at a meeting of all members of legislative assembly (MLAs) and department officials, chaired by the chief minister.

According to the plan, the Aam Aadmi Party government has asked all MLAs to organise 'Jan Sabhas' in their respective constituencies on February 6 and 7 to seek suggestions.

"We have decided to seek public opinion in a structural way and incorporate suggestions before implementing the second phase of the odd-even scheme, which received an overwhelming response from the public earlier. Based on the feedback received by February 8, we will analyse and come up with a concrete plan," Kejriwal said at a press conference here.

"From tomorrow, we will issue advertisements asking the masses to email their suggestions to oddevenidea @gmail.com. We also plan to introduce a phone line soon for the same purpose," he added.
