Beware of Change Snatchers - I am a Victim

28 April 2014 - 7:40pm — Vasanth

Beware of Change Snatchers. I had a bad experience today. Two people came in an auto while I was in bus stop and requested change for Rs.500. I said I do not have, but they insisted to check and they have struggled hard to get change. I again said I do not have, but they said 'nivu educated aagiddu obbarige help madalvenri'. I checked my wallet and I had change.

Incremental Metro Extension in Phase 2

22 April 2014 - 11:41pm — Vasanth

Metro Phase 2 works are going to start very soon. But how long it would take? Phase 1 which started in 2007, saw the light in 2011 partially. For complete Phase 1 to complete, it would be end of 2015 or even 2016. Almost close to 9 years. Phase 2 in the phase 1 pace might take another 9 years. If the work starts now in June / July, it might complete somwhere in 2023.

Kengeri railway Station with four Platforms well developed, used by 10000 people daily.  Its 300 / 500  meters from Mysore road  but without connectivity by road.  Even simple elevated FOB from station to Mysore road will  make big difference : 

Looking towards Bangalore city side :

Garbage daily or weekly?

9 April 2014 - 11:53am — srinidhi

Was watching SatyamevaJayate on TV the other day and as usual there was loads of emotions and the story was about garbage collectors or 'poura-karmikas' in BBMP terms..where they went around explaning their position and it was interesting indeed.

They on a everyday basis handle hazardous waste insluding diapers and other other harmful garbage.
