Sewage water treatment in Apartments

4 January 2013 - 4:25pm — Anithasunil

I have a question regarding operation of sewage treatment plants in apartments. 

I live in a community which has 300+ flats, and we have constant complaints on the sewage treatment plant from the KSPCB. One of the major complaints is about the treated water being thrown out to the storm water drain.

Why isn't plea-bargaining being practiced In India?

While the demands for Taliban-type punishments grow louder, one point being missed is that tougher the punishment, lesser the chances of it being awarded and longer it will take to execute.

While the cacophony for the death sentence for the accused grows louder, most of us ignore the fact that the main accused in this crime is a juvenile.

Mid day pass, and age for senior citizen pass in BMTC

Kudos to KSRTC for age reduction - now decreased fare by 25% for senior citizens for 60 yrs from 65 earlier.

But still in BMTC daily pass is still 50 for senior citizen even after having proof.

They accept only BMTC id card. Why should we need one more card if we already have KSRTC id card /voter's id/govt id card ?

I understand Praja is doing an outstanding work in terms of creating awareness and action groups .

However, do we think that we could have utilized the recent Delhi incident to highlight growing crimes and violations in our city?
