Many civic autorities in India are constructing road dividers on busy/ narrow streets in town without providing for footpaths, pedestrian crossings and public parking. I feel this is wrong and endagering the pedestrians, besides norrowing the roads further. I need some well researched / legal document on this issue. Pls help.

This is taken from an article from the sourced site:
Delhi Urban Development and PWD Minister A.K. Walia has asked the PWD to construct a Foot Over Bridge (FOB) at Dhaula Kuan for the convenience of pedestrians.
Dr. Walia today visited this site to assess the difficulties being faced by the pedestrians while crossing the road. The pedestrians were crossing the road in groups by jumping over the road-dividers and through a narrow opening in the railings of the road-dividers.
Maybe Foot Over Bridges are the answer to the problem.

I may, safely, assume that you are in Great Britain. If anyone has similar concerns and quesions about standards in the United States, they should find most answers, somewhere, withing the Department of Transportation site, and that of the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration, a division of the Department of Transportation.
There are a lot of nationally standardized traffic engineering specs.
