On record
Delhi's first Bus Rapid Transit corridor was blamed for worsening congestion for private vehicles and was dismantled by the Delhi government in 2016 after years of controversy, PILs, and court battles.
The official record states: "Transport experts said the corridor failed "not because BRT doesn't work but because of poor implementation.""

“Rode the corridor in 2012 and overtook every car on the Mehrauli-Badarpur road. Delhi has never forgiven me for it.”
“Went to the Moolchand stretch expecting a bus lane and found an ordinary traffic jam, faithfully restored at public expense.”
“Crores to build a dedicated bus lane, more crores to remove it, and the buses are back in the queue where motorists can enjoy them.”
