<p>The 1982 Asia Games are about to start in a few days. Delhi traffic has to flow smoothly. A car is parked, illegally. Oh no... it's the Prime Minister's car. What will Kiran Bedi and her sub-inspector do? Kiran Bedi, Tihar...&nbsp;&nbsp; Crane Bedi The Governor called for me. I did not quite know what to expect. He called me inside his office, looked at me and asked, &ldquo;Kiran, do you know why I have called you?&rdquo; I swung my head from side to side and said I did not. Then he smiled slightly and said, &ldquo;Kiran, the Asian Games are hardly a year away and the Delhi traffic condition is chaotic. I want you to take over as the Delhi traffic chief.&rdquo; I did not know how to react. This was a huge responsibility and it turned out to be one of the most rewarding experiences of my career. And of course, it would win me the nickname &lsquo;Crane Bedi&rsquo;. The 1982 Asian Games that were held in Delhi were a prestigious event for India. I had to draw on every bit of my energy to regulate the traffic. I was out on the roads every morning by 8am, in my white Ambassador, which was fitted with a wireless set and a loudspeaker. I held a microphone in my hand, to give instructions whenever needed, while being driven around the city.</p>
