@ Pranav

I am confirming and will make myself free in the afternoon.

Thanks Pranav for the effort in organising as I had lost the hope  for meeting  on CRS with Mr V Madhu

Finally we have meeting with Mr V Madhu.  

We need  to prepare the specific points  for the CRS progress. Already in RTI thread, we have the points,   and need to add few more points  so that we get the clear picture on the CRS.

@IDS & Srinidhi, Muralidhar sir  & others interested  and propogating CRS, kindly make it for the meeting so that  Govt & IDD  take the issue of CRS seriously.

 

Would have liked to join

This could be an important meeting since Mr Madhu is the boss for IDD, which makes most decisions relating to urban transport, not to mention other urban infrastructural issues.

I would have liked very much to join, but since I am currently overseas, I will be missing this event.

All the best to participants that attend the meet.

Let us meet at the gate
