The National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission has directed the department of Railways to pay Rs 2,000 as compensation to a senior citizen, who fell ill after being stranded post midnight at a station in Karnataka.
Have we ever thought of taking BMTC, Autos, BBMP, BWSSB, BESCOM, BSNL etc to task for deficient service? Hats of to this elderly citizen who have shown the way for 'chalta Hai' syndrome citizens like me to wake up from the slumber and fight for the fair services.
It is time we all start filing complaints for that lousy and deficient service from our civic agencies.
May the tribe of 'Balasaheb Bangi' increase many folds. Sir, we salute you for your courage.

Do post us on your next step.
I am trying to work out some cost estimates on wear & tear, mental anguish, time wastage etc, I will post it here to trash it out. Then it will be time to find a lawer who can fight this either as a PIL or as compensation claim or advise the right way to pin them on this.

I really want to sue BBMP for wear & tear of vehicles due to the deficient roadways they have built in town. I dont see how else they will realize the seriousness of their jobs.

The corrupt BBMP officers, and other politicians involved in various scams related to road maintenance should be brought to book by strong Lokaukta instead of claiming tire wear and tear.
1. Strong Lokpal / Lokaukta bills are the key legislations.
2. Less political interference with police / Judiciary
3. Electoral reforms
4. Unfortunately, We get what we deserve
