Sun Film Ban Infocharts

admin

My last post To S(h)un-film or not to S(h)un-Film? lead me to think a lot about the ban and around the ban from what all could be going on behind the scene.  Here is an attempt to detail this out further using some Google Skills, Excel skills and some free time!  I hope I don’t start seeing conspiracies in everything. I found it interesting that so much data is available for India online and free !  Here is the PDF file I created:

The Chennai Traffic Police were doing some stop , check , fine and rip operations in couple of parts of the city. However this seems to have lost steam as the week progressed. I am still driving with the sun film on and Rs 100 fine ready to be paid in hand. If caught I will pay the fine and remove the film only post that. Have also resolved to not fix it back later as well !

Do let me know if you have questions and also please do share this with your friends. Do feel free to re-post/share !
