Ramachandra Guha argues that experts recommend improving public transport (buses, metro), while the tunnel road project seems designed to favor private automobiles and is highly likely to exceed its budget. #TunnelRoad #Bangalore @siddaramaiah @DKShivakumar

“The unforgotten moments of my life are those rare ones which come after years of plodding work, when the veil over nature’s secret seems suddenly to lift, and when what was dark and chaotic appears in a clear and beautiful light and pattern,” said medicine laureate Gerty Cori.

No communication on delay, i have to follow up continuously. Yet after 2 weeks, there is no response from @AOSmithin.

@AOSmithin has the terrible service! Do not purchase a water heater from them! Our water heater stopped working after the first use. The repairman said the thermostat has to be replaced. It has been over 2 weeks now. It takes them 2 weeks to replace a thermostat in Bengaluru!

@Ishwarguru85 @Tejasvi_Surya Even for the airport, a suburban rail connection should do, with good metro and bus integration downstream.

@Ishwarguru85 @Tejasvi_Surya Metros are super expensive. Each km of metro costs 250 Cr per km minimum. Suburban is much much cheaper, at 20 Cr for a basic setup (even with A/C -60 Cr). Metros are great for high density travel corridors with more stops. Suburban is cheaper and better for outskirts

People opposing the Tumakuru Metro, like @Tejasvi_Surya, are the dumbest. To reduce Bengaluru’s load, people and businesses must move outside the city. Strong connectivity is essential for that, and nothing provides more reliable connectivity than a metro line. The Tumakuru Metro will make a major difference by encouraging people and companies to shift to Bengaluru’s outskirts. Overall, it will become one of the most dependable metro routes. Requesting @DKShivakumar sir to implement it as soon as possible

@sanjay_election ji,has @LoknitiCSDS not done the pre and post poll for Bihar election? Was eagerly awaiting the analysis.

@sumitakale News has practically become political gossip. Media houses have given up on accountability. It has been this way for years and the impact on democracy and quality of life are clear to see.

This. Really wish media would stop just reporting who said what, instead of real journalism on the issues.

Has the Karnataka Govt improved healthcare access as promised in its manifesto?

@BajpayeeManoj Om Shanti

Deeply saddened by the passing of Asrani Sir. Working with him in Dus Tola was a privilege. His warmth, humour and humility will always stay with me. I learnt so much from our conversations and from his passion for teaching and the craft of acting. Om Shanti 🙏

@noorainee @TOIBengaluru @MALimbavali @ArvindLBJP @PMOIndia @narendramodi ..please get a report card for Mahadevapura constituency, where BJP has been voted to power always. Its a place where maximum schools are located and is a top IT corridor earning billions in taxes. The infrastructure is crumbling, there is no road.

Rs 700-800 crore is required to fix road infrastructure in #Bengaluru’s Mahadevapura area, Rs 25 crore from state govt is not enough to repair 2km — says Mahadevapura MLA (BJP) Manjula Aravind Limbavali. READ 👇 timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/bengaluru…

@noorainee @TOIBengaluru @MALimbavali @ArvindLBJP

@MALimbavali how much has been allocated to #Mahadevapura since 2008-2023 during which time @ArvindLBJP was MLA & how were these funds used? Pls share your vision, development plan & budget - capital & op expenses required, sources of funding you have targeted - state or central govt, development banks, CSR funds etc. @PCMohanMP @DKShivakumar @GBA_office @WFRising Succssive govts across party lines have failed us, but the elected reps have done little to represent us

In Your Interest with @kabir_naqvi Civic activist Sandeep Anirudhan on Why has #Bengaluru’s governance failed despite wealth & global status? Is India’s #SiliconValley paying the price of IT success with zero accountability?

@OMOVBengaluru Your MLA is attending the Assembly session. She should raise the issue of Varthur's under development and identify what measures/plans does thr government have to resolve the issue- either as a starred or unstarred question. Watch out for that!

Students traversing Varthur were trapped in traffic for ages today! What is usually a 30-minute journey took 1.5 hours, and students missed their first classes. The pothole-ridden roads and lack of lane markings worsen the rain's effects, making students lose energy and learning
