EPILOGUE : What is the point of giving us small cars? When officers travel in fancy SUVs why should we get old, inexpensive cars? I might as well use my own car.” says Kamalakar Naik, Sena corporator and chairman of L ward representing 15 councillor wards. Incidentally, he owns four cars - Prado, Getz, Swift and Qualis.
