Need to upgrade our engagement with BMTC!

A day before, I had the opportunity to call Mr. K S Vishwanath - CTMO of BMTC. After customary introduction, he felt that Praja community is not that active as seen during 1st Bus Day. I told him that, we are as active as we were for 1st Bus Day.

On my part I asked him about the lesson learned from Feb 4th BD and what new things can be expected on March 4?

From this conversation I concluded that upper management hasn't analyzed the feedback they have received from Praja and other sources fully. Though Mr. Vishwanath told me that they did find that they need to tweak the schedule timings a lit bit. He promised me 2 things - one the website will be fully functional with route search information and two, timings will be adjusted to take care of the crowds around morning hours.
I had to cut the conversation as I had reached him on his cell. Will talk to him later.

From this conversation it was evident that we have more work cut out for us. For that we need to upgrade our engagement. With our current sources we reached this far and for further journey we need to enhance our engagements with BMTC.

Let us brainstorm the ideas on how to enhance the engagement and be able to put across the message to BMTC in an effective way.

This will be one topic I would like to discuss this in a Skype meeting on Sunday @ 10 AM IST.
