Imperatives of privatisation of power distribution

05/28/08 08:11 - murali772

The World Customers' Day was observed by BESCOM in its usual ritualistic style on Saturday, the 15th March by holding a workshop on 'Customer Care', in association with Public Affairs Centre (PAC), Swabhimana, Consumer Advocacy, and Karnataka Electricity Regulatory Commission (KERC). Of the audience of a 100 odd people, only some 30 were members of Civil Society groups (RWA's, etc), the rest comprising mostly of BESCOM officials. Seeing this, the chief guest, Dr Samuel Paul, Chairman, PAC, remarked that the poor turn out was perhaps an indication of the high level of satisfaction with BESCOM services.

organised retail

The ICRIER survey on the question of 'entry of organised sector into retail' has found that producers and consumers also gain considerably. It further noted that all income groups saved on costs through organised retail purchases, but lower income groups saved much more.

Alternate roads to Bengaluru International Airport

05/28/08 03:37 - Photoyogi

Dear friends,
Am reviving an old thread started by kbsyed61 http://praja.in/content/discuss/2008/03/roads-new-bangalore-international-airport - The reason is simple, Now that the Airport has commenced commercial operation There might be some new one-ways / re routes that we might have been forced into. Praja members who also know of some other "long" short-cuts to the already announced BCP's suggestions welcome to share routes here, Its always good to know by-pass routes in the event of blockage on main routes..

BMTC busses on the Tarmac

05/27/08 04:43 - narayan82

BMTC and Airindia SATS/Air Deccan have tied up at BIAL to ferry passengers in the Low Floor Red Volvos from the gates to the airplane. I don't get it! The volvos in the city are going packed, the frequency is less than what i can/should be - why can't these busses run on the road instead. To me these busses are a much needed addition to the existing public transport. For the 2 Min ride from the Gate to the Plane, we dont need to use this "fancy" bus! Or we can get a Sutlej or a Tata-Globus/eicher/swaraj mazda for the airport!
