Bangalore PRAJA members have from long been eager for a direct meeting with Mr Manivannan, a bureaucrat who has had no reservations about interacting with them through the net.

Hi All,

Currently there is no BMTC or VOLVO service operating between Yelahanka towards ORR via Hebbal busstop. The nearest stop is the DAIRY stop(Opp: Esteem Mall) . One has to walk all the way underneath hebbal flyover to reach the stop. Till the OFFICIALS wake up and start bus service here is an opportunity to reduce a good number of vehicles off the ORR

No trees planted on ORR

06/22/09 11:44 - parisarapremi

The ORR between Sarjapur Road and K.R Puram bridge and then on between K.R Puram to Nagawara is devoid of trees. I see that in some small stretches, there is an attempt to plant some trees, but in general these stretches are some of the worst when it comes to avenue planting.

Half hearted storm water drain cleaning in Bellandur ?

06/20/09 18:19 - minus43

Recently the BBMP has taken up storm water drain cleaning in preparation for the monsoon. However it seems like they are going a half hearted job. A strech of drain has been cleaned on Bellandur Outer Ring Road and the silt has been left right besides the drain. Over the next week we will track to see if BBMP clears up the dumped silt.
