FAQ

How did people communicate with relatives in other cities before mobile phones?
People wrote handwritten letters, postcards, or inland letters and dropped them into a postbox; the post office sorted them by region and delivered them via postmen.

How do flyovers and metro trains help in busy cities?
Flyovers carry vehicles above crowded intersections to reduce traffic jams, while metro trains run on dedicated tracks to transport thousands of passengers quickly without road congestion.
