Detailed itineraries

Given that the odd-even formula for private vehicles in Delhi is the first such step by any state in the country to curb pollution, the Aam Aadmi Party government went the extra mile to garner publicity. The media was informed in advance about the mode of transport Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and members of his cabinet would opt for. So details such as "Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia will leave his residence at 8 am on his bicycle, go for an appointment and then cycle to the Delhi Secretariat" or "(Transport and Rural Development Minister) Gopal Rai will leave his residence in his even-numbered car for work and then take a bus tour from the Secretariat" circulated in the media. With such detailed itineraries of the cabinet available to the media, no wonder television crews were tracking the ministers closely.
