Uses of streets

srkulhalli - 6-APR-2009

There is more to a street than movement of vehicles. It also needs to be safe, usable and appealing for pedestrians, bicyclists and handicapped. It is also used for parking, turns, used by hawkers, etc. For better understanding we will classify and list these down.

Why it's difficult for me to consider voting for Congress

murali772 - 6-APR-2009

The secret owners of the secreted monies operate in secrecy — venal businessmen, corrupt politicians, public servants, drug lords, and criminal gangs like the D-company. The slush monies are the financial RDX for terror, besides weapons of mass destruction of national and global finance. That there is secret money is no more a secret. Only the amounts and persons are secret.

Get information on your MP through SMS

deepakar - 6-APR-2009

To get information about the MP from your constituency (or any other for that matter), SMS " MYNETA <PINCODE>" to 56070.

For eg, for Sheshadripuram (Bangalore South) I would SMS "MYNETA 560020".
