Comments
Dr. Ravindra sets the ball rolloing
Some of the problems as summed up by Dr. Ravindra were:-
This was a refreshing start for the days discussions
MLA Mr. Raghu, Dr. Ravindra and Mr. Ramamurthy on the Dais
Thippasandra Main road
Illegal Claiming of road works
Mechale palya residents have a suspision that instances of "fictious repairs" claims being made are there.
Garbage segregation and composting
Mr. Mani of HAL III stage claimed sucess in segrigation of garbage and composting of wet garbage. However we need to involve all residents to spread the awareness in the community, as a whole!.
Indiranagar I stage co co nut Garden
Night time Vehicles parking was reported by Mr. N Rangaraj of BM Kaval area..
OLD Air Port Road Fly over
Mr. Mohan Manganani of New horizon public School felt the absence of foot paths in the OLD Airport road Fly over is disastrous. This has been a discussion point earlier in PRAJA.
MLA Raghu at his best as ever!
Mr. Raghu spared no effort to assure the residents that he will continue his good work in his third term as well.
This event was perhaps not the proper venue. He is calling for a meet on 24th August with all the stake holders. He revealed that MLA funds have not been utilised, and will be well spent!
Coordination between depts.
(Duplication removed)
Coordination between depts.
I had given the following suggestions in advance. I was called upon to elaborate, which I did. The MLA responded by agrreing to the same by promptly calling for the next meet with all dept. reps on 24th Aug. at 10-00 a.m. at the same venue.
"1. A mechanism should be put in place to continuously monitor the
grievances being submitted to the officials in such periodical meets.
2. Such reviews should be done in a Coordination meeting with the
Citizens Representatives including the Corporator concerned.'
3. All the departments - BBMP, BWSSB, BESCOM,BTP, HEALTH, POLICE (Law
& Order) should participate.
4. At present WARD 88 Citizens Forum is conducting such meetings on
the third Friday (4-00 p.m.) of every month in the office of the AE
(BBMP). Other Depts should send their representatives.
5. Other Wards also can hold similar meetings once a month.
6. The Traffic Police also are holding such meets on third Saturday
(11-00 a.m.) every month. This can be combined with the third Friday
meeting to avoid duplication.'

Agenda for meetings in itself is not the goal
As far as Garbage issue is concerned, segregation at source is the key. Effective steps towards zero dumping are not that hard. There is a need to take all Residents along by a helping hand.
