Need route info before Bus Day

11 January 2010 - 8:06am — silkboard

This is from last weekend. Convinced my family to take a Vajra to go across town from Whitefield to Mahalakshmi Layout. I told them don't worry, there are buses (333Z, 335EP, 335T) that go in that direction. We decided we will leave around 10 AM.

Sharing a video from India Economic Summit. Very interesting to note Om Prakash Agarwals introductory comments where he says - We are very good at putting standalone facilities but never have an integrated plan and connection with other related systems. Bangalore has been reliant on a one dimensional Bus system. This cannot scale.

One reason cited was that house owners were finding the process expensive. Residents' Welfare Associations have sought Bank loan facilities.

Stretcher cases and our money

7 January 2010 - 5:56pm — murali772

It is an extraordinary system where an equipment manufacturer for the telecom industry turns sick and remains sick just as an epoch-making boom takes place in the sector. Lakhs of private units make losses and are unable to cope with the market; only, they don’t have an automatic tap in the public treasury to keep going that way.
