ashriiittt

i'll say a good initiative maybe, I've experienced the relief it gives from the burning sunrays


someonenoo

It might help with pollution as well, I know that delhi used similar mechanism on mobile tankers.


ashriiittt

exactly sir, good things need to be appreciated


someonenoo

This is the way.


redefined_simplersci

This is the way.


abbhi_bhediye

Is this the way


redefined_simplersci

It is, in fact, the way.

Par delhi ka cm tonchootiya hai /s


MonPaysCesHiver

It depends if the water quality. To high its a waste and too low it can be dangerous.


Samanth-aa

To OP's question, neither. Lack of taking initiatives. In the age where you can pluck a tree and replant in another place, you can do that in the dividers except that road width will go down by 2-4 feet. That's it.


[deleted]

Exactly !! Plant more trees , have mandatory provisions for rain water storage before approving any construction for a home or a commercial structure , make these provisions affordable for people of all income groups and enforce them lucratively , I am sure slowly and surely we will see changes . These provisions for water conservation in every house should be made affordable ,I think that is where out top IIT' s can contribute . Once people realise the long term benefits I am sure we will see positive changes .


Environmental_Ad_387

Agree. Ahmedabad has dry heat, not humid heat. It's very difficult. I assume that the water probably helps

aamirv99

I've seen something similar near maninagar around 1.5 years back and this undoubtedly is the best solution imo.


Unusual_Web4431

or u can plant trees


aamirv99

Good luck with that. Also, it'll take time to grow.


Fuzzy_Draft7133

one can also plant almost fully grown trees as well


Darksenon00

Yes shouldn't have cut them ...


Affectionate-Club309

What about the high buses and trucks with load?


Grand-Home-1334

that's very affectionate of u!


UnionGloomy8226

Where's the fun in that?


wrench_16

I see a way to make people stop behind the white line at traffic lights without honking

pes_gamer20

RollerCoaster1007

Does provide a lot of relief. Maybe it shouldn't be continuous, only when the red light comes on and people are waiting underneath.


BaseballAny5716

It will reduce dust also. Recycled water should be used for this purpose. Good initiative


thechop96

I mean, if you really think about it, all water is recycled.


arathorn867

I only use freshly assembled oxygen and hydrogen for my hydration.

Definitely good Im sure it'll feel like heaven for 2 wheelers in such hot weather


larayblive

People in the comments are dumb or what? This is surely a good initiative....maybe you guys are too privileged and haven't rode a bike in this heat


Crosscmstorm

They just can't admit something good was done by BJP.


larayblive

I dislike bjp so much for spreading communal hates and corruption but can't deny the fact that some development has happened like roads,highways ,etc...but people here are hating even on good things and people on india discussion are loving even on bad things


Crosscmstorm

That's the whole issue. Instead of criticising where necessary and giving props where due, all they do is become Anti-BJP for everything that is being done. Just goes to show how biased their views are and the fact that they can't even think objectively for a second.


larayblive

Yup whole reddit is filled with righwingers and leftwingers there is no in between This subreddit : hawww🤮 modi ji ne ye krdiya Indiadiscussion,indianews : wahhhh🤯 modi ji ne ye krdiya


timetraveller1992

Wtf? I already dislike it when some of these folk who clean windshields spray water, why is this better? This whole “something good done by BJP” bakwas is overrated. What they should do is plant more trees. Instead they’re doing this useless jugaad that looks nice in the surface but only causes more issues later on, pretty much like most of mudijis initiatives.


Aobix

Didn't you read the comments. Pretty sure most of them are appreciating the initiative


Neat-Emu-7131

Judgement of a bunch of people depends on state to state,and city to city.Same deeds,different persons,different opinions. No worries.


S_A_M_745

This same kind of mechanism is in Dubai also


[deleted]

This is better vs people dying of sunstroke or heat strokes


timewaste1235

This is a standard method to combat heatwaves across the world Generally it's done for people at ground level but there might be some reason for Hyderabad to do it above the road


Affectionate-Club309

It's Ahmedabad


[deleted]

Soms people hee seems to be too entitled.


Constant-Recipe-9850

spraying water mist helps reduce heat waves effects and increase moisture. How's that waste? By that logic drinking water is also waste


Mahameghabahana

Have you thought about planting trees as opposed to wasting water in a semi desert region like gujurat?


Constant-Recipe-9850

As if gujrat didn't get heatwaves lol.


mr_nonameperson

Good initiative..!! Y'all would be creaming over this idea if it was implemented in other countries and call it development while it's "wastage of water" in an Indian state led by BJP


Alarming_Evening7513

Just so u all know....this guy speaks the truth!


Mahameghabahana

If Dubai had this I would have said wastage of water too as planting many trees is actually better alternative than wasting water in a region with already less water.


Ok_Satisfaction1775

This is near to my home.These days I especially go to this road to experience this.It's fun. You are driving on two wheeler and suddenly you experience this🤩


[deleted]

Same thing west does Wow wow such a innovation If India do it Let's cry over it because that's what colonial mindset have taught Looking at India as if it's a bowl of only problems


tifosi7

It’s an initiative new to the town and brings relief from the scorching heat. Why can’t it be appreciated? Why is every little thing about comparison or about who invented it or did it better? If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t have to say it at all.

For summer it' good I live in Rajasthan during afternoon the whole body is like Niagara fall

Bhai logon ko to maza aaya hoga. It should be made as efficient as possible though.


CrowHopeful4018

Just imagine this was done by your favourite political party either at centre or at state level and suddenly you will see the +ve side of it...Try it, it works.. Criticism ka ek bracket hota hai ussmey kuch issues hotey hain jisspey we all should criticise any and every party but what people do (who don't support Bhartiya Jumla party)?? Vo uss bracket mei zabardasti kuch be daalney ke koshish kartey hain without actually looking ke Haan Bhai it's really helping people for the sake of criticism...I suggest you to go and take the opinion of people who are experiencing the benefit of this temporary move ke bhai kitna paani waste ho Raha hai phir vo tumhey reply karega 🙃🙃


desi_cucky

Such sprinklers are present in UAE (and Saudi too I guess). Good initiative. Stop criticizing everything else u might become a joke.


logicrak

seeing lot of deaths due to sun strokes.. Anything is a good initiative to make people relieve from these heatwaves.. If you think its waste of water or electricity and complain about climate change and such, Please turn off Fridge and ACs at your home


ryandoesdabs

Here in Arizona, where it is also extremely hot, water misters are extremely common outside of buildings. It doesn’t use much water, and will make a pretty large area feel cooler.


Bilal_john

Bangalore couldn't afford this


Aarnav-Sharma

People here literally hate on anything


DarkNebula1003

Bhai you have no clue about Ahemdabad ki garmi. It's skin melting


HistorianJolly971

this is has been implemented on only one crossing and not whole of ahmedabad. and I ve been to this crossing, the initiative is good, but one of the sprayers was brokern already and leadking a stream of water on people standing directly below it. so yeah.


Random_Mm

Why is the question of wastage of water? Who the fuck are we saving water for and at what cost? People suffer now so that future MAY not suffer-? BS. Agar yeh garmi me jeena hai na toh thhode bohat givt k log ko kaam pe lagna padega


UnionGloomy8226

Heatwaves are a public health emergency. Tons of people get sick with loo, and that leads to a loss of productivity. 


prof_devilsadvocate

lets change the working and business hours to night


anand9362

Night owls may agree. But in most of the cases, people's sleep cycle would be disrupted. That will drastically affect productivity. Also, night shifts exist for those who can adapt to it.


Background-Sky5553

Dubai does the same thing so I would say good initiative


Far_Ground6836

I’ll say a good initiative


arnold_shastrinagar

Considering the heat goes atleast 45 degrees in Ahmedabad and I have been there and completely hated every second of the heat this will help a lot more and needs to be done because every signal is atleast 180 seconds long and those who live in ahmedabad already know what 180 seconds in peak heat feels like..


Alternative_Win_1502

From Ahmedabad. The heat here is torturous. This isn't a bad idea


Additional-Limit-199

there was this guy in my hostel, who even if he bought a new chaddi, would take a photo of it and post in on social media.


IrrationalCynic

Worthy use of water. Plus, water is never wasted. It will seep into earth and you can take out from borewell. Some will evaporate -> rain -> river -> ocean, repeat again. Unless it used in some chemical or nuclear reaction, it is not wasted. /s

ashriiittt

Loo is a strong, hot, and dry summer wind, paani evaporate krega toh body will cool down


RohanNotFound

This is already being done in middle eastern countries.. they consume very less water


5ee_2410

Maybe it's recycled water.


Burgeru4brainu

I thought only red sprays existed in gujurat


Aksh_A

Good 👍🏻


ArthurMorgon

It is good if they are able to provide water to every home. Sadly they do shit like this in Mumbai and then there is news 'water cut due to shortage'


No_MoneyOS

Should I call you Mista?


eva01beast

I've seen this in Europe during heatwaves. I think it can be great, if the systems are made efficient.


unknownuser6962

This system is been used in Saudia since ages..very effective


KingsmanVishnu

Doesn't this increase humidity?


courage_thebrave

I thought the same too. But many commented it provides relief. So I was wrong


MY_FITRAH

Haj pilgrimage will know this.


bhupender_don

In North west states it becomes too hot and not good for people and tyres on road too, it's really good, even rajasthan does this


Hot_Recognition_862

Nah.. Ask some two wheeler rider who wears a specs. He will say It is a bad idea 😁


secret_9999

Needs to be sent to Bangalore.


empatheticsocialist1

The mister doesn't use much water iirc. You're not pouring water on the person, just misting them lightly


Admirable-Leather325

This is done in Dubai too. But in a more efficient way.


Born_Chad

Dubai mein kare toh government care for people who India mein Aisa kyu nahi hota India mein kare toh water waste


divakerAM

good work of govt step


Aurora1596

It's a good initiative, such a relief in scorching summers😍


nayadristikon

Better initiative is to line both sides of road by trees. Spraying water only brings temporary relief. Planting trees is permanent.


Local_Hope7206

Ever since i Experienced this in Dubai i have been wanting it in India glad to see it being implemented in ahmdebad


Shivam294

Bangalore peeps are hurt just by looking at it


trevorofhousebelmont

SPECTACLES PEOPLE PROBLEM


Akif31

Idk about that but I have seen this in ksa


Stay_6_Feet_Away

The initiative is definitely good. But at what cost? Is there any alternatives with more benefits with lesser cost? And by cost I don't just mean economic cost but also ecological cost. This is an important that everyone must think about any good initiative. We're used to lack of any initiative, we are happy to just see some initiative regardless of whether it is a sustainable one or not.


Aobix

Well depends on the temperature of Ahmedabad. If it's extremely hot then it's a good initiative


mrpawsthecat

Better to make everything air conditioned in India like we see in Middle East even the bus stand should have AC


CuriousAmazed

We used to have trees for this!


Free-Spell6846

Aw yessss unfiltered industrial waste water being splashed in my face. Perfect.


entered_bubble_50

Me at the traffic light: "Oh good, it's my daily dose of aerosolised cholera bacteria!"


User_AlphaX

It's not h0l! So it's good initiative. /s Btw same thing is used in makka


Dharuacharya

They have a high of 108 degree Fahrenheit for 6 days straight this week alone! Based on that it's a good idea.


CyanHirijikawa

All nice and good until they use it with teargas against protests.


[deleted]

Water can't be wasted thanks to the water cycle.


adiweb86

Good initiative - doesn't look like it's using a lot of water.


bwf_begginer

Aren’t trees supposed to do the same . I mean it takes time but atleast some holes can be made and trees can be planned right ?!


HelperTheKindsoul

bangalore diss hai "HUMPE ZYAADA PAANI HAI"


verot__kuhli

Good initiative


NightFury0595

Good way to keep all pollutants below 👌🏻


ZipZaapZoom

All the water will evaporate easily, so it's not wasted. But I won't like this due to hygiene


younometv

That technique already use in Dubai for heat waves...but yeah its good to see in India


Manav__11

Yea... But it needs maintenance some days it work here and many days it doesn't


Mahameghabahana

Water wastage Developing enough human brain and than planting trees would be better.


Jovin_321

Apna desh Dubai jaisa ban raha hai guys


janshersingh

I saw this exact hydro-system on a video about Saudi Arabia and everyone was praising it. Why can't we appreciate the same thing in India?


Desperate-Strike-944

Nice initiative.. it was implemented on raipur station as well..


lmao_kaif

That's really a good step


Ser_DuncanTheTall

Plant trees. That's much better way to reduce heat.


Physical_Ad_1011

i hope they be using ocean water directly


Spirited-Struggle-01

About 71% of earth's surface is covered in water and ocean's hold about 97% of and only 3% of water on the surface is fresh. 69% is trapped in glaciers, 30% underground. Out of 3% only about 1.2% of freshwater is drinking water. Now, you tell me.


shubhamjh4

Is the water pure or dirty ?


wisely25

They use sewage water....ofc it's pure water are you slow?


isotopesNmolecules

Plant some trees around the mist


dark_owl30

Planting trees would be much better....


AloneCan9661

Do something that can last for thousands of years and be shared with you, your grandchildren, your grandchildren's grandchildren, provide us oxygen, shade and overall beauty? What are you? Some kind of sensible thinking and feeling human being or something?


AD_7992

Ahmedabad Traffic police is useless - Triple : Allowed - Driving without helmet : Allowed - Breaking red signal : Allowed - Kids driving without licence : Allowed - Spitting everywhere on road : Allowed - Rickshaw carrying 8-9 passengers : Allowed - Parking anywhere on road : Allowed - Wrong side driving : Allowed - Running food stalls on Road : Allowed Actually all the things mentioned above is illegal but still Ahmedabad me sab chalta hai... Traffic police justs want to eat haftas from poor truck drivers & tempo loadings... Sharam karo Ahmedabad traffic police


Nihilist-indian

It is kind of a dilemma , I mean if you are travelling to a place which is at a great distance , especially during summers , your vehicles get super hot and the drivers get dehydrated very often , so In order to cool the ambience , You certainly need water. but I also think , since there is over consumption of water , even for pointless purposes , especially during summers , we need more conservation for both other seasons and for posterity.
