Offending temple

24 September 2008 - 3:34pm — murali772

BBMPs Chikungunya/Dengue mosquito breeding centre in Indiranagar

23 September 2008 - 1:58pm — balu036

The attached video is of a Chikungunya/ Dengue Mosquitos breeding centre at 14th Cross, Indiranagar 2nd Stage, Bangalore 560038, which is flourishing thanks to the laxity of Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (the authority in charge of ensuring public health and drainage maintenance). Water stagnates in this drain and no action is taken to clear its choking. Now it has become a breeding place for mosiqutos. Chikungunya has broken out in Karnataka and it seems BBMP is only facilitating spreading of such diseases.

'Super shoddy', 'oh these cheapos', coin-your-expletives, or 'like our station' right? Switch over to the City station, and remember how you lugged your stuff up the stairs from the platform to the footbridge and back down again.

We can hear you say - there are porters to help. Why does the airport not save some money by arranging for 50-60 porters? Before this gets into socialism vs capitalism like arguments, analyze this.

bus stand"Safe Passage" is about collecting 2.00 lacs signatures representing to emphasize need for safe pedestrian crossing at K.R.Puram Railway, Benniganahalli and ITI Colony gate. Why Signature Campaign?

As we know the gatherings once dispersed the existence of such emphasis also disappears in thin air. Signature Campaign will be in existence all the time for ever. The leaders representation will make the things happen. I am inviting leaders to take this on along with me and be a cause for this Safe Passage of innumerable lives who will reach home safely thanking every good soul who have stood for the cause.
