Today Bangladesh added a new chapter to the name of Cycle Rickshaw
revolution, when all participating 14 team's captain entered the stadium on
Rickshaw. The best way to showcase, what they are proud of; in their total
country’s vehicle population 50% are only cycle rickshaws and it and largest
sector to give employment in Bangladesh.

In Punjab, Haryana & Chandigarh alone more than 5.5 lakhs families liviihood
is dependent on cycle Rickshaw, which means, 22 million vehicle kilometer
and 11 million passengers in the two states and UT travels only by rickshaw,
saving of almost 1.85 million litre of fuel per day..imagine the kind of
pollution, if all will be replaced by motor transport.
