1.Government should provide a public transport rather than depending on private buses. If government solves this issue the accident rates can be brought down. Metro can be solution up to extend but I think we should have more KSRTC buses.
2.Government should provide a trash bin on all streets and a proper collection system, which can be done in the midnight.
3.Provide free Wifi access in main junctions
4.Government should promote and provide subsidy in solar panels and bio-gas

Government services should be 100% made online. Status of requests shall be provided to show real time for processing requests.

Apps/ system should be developed to address public grievances.

Local governments should have KPI/ KPA / yearly objectives and its performance/ results should be made public.( eg: proposed projects vs completion , air/ water quality levels )

GPS enabled monitoring/information on public transport systems.

Performance feedback mechanism for govt.

Air Pollution - The biggest threat in Kochi . I dont understand why there is no measure or action to stop air pollution especially the ones from vehicles. Why is there no regulatory to control and stop this? Pollution from Ksrtc buses , Auto rickshaws and other old vehicles are an absolute threat to humanity .

Roads and infrastructure - Roads in Kochi are the worst I have seen in South India. Even the NH looks like a mediocre road dull of Pot holes . Fundamental infrastructure!
