event update

Submitted by srinidhi on 26 January 2013 - 9:28pm.

Prof Ashwin M started the talks with a good presentation on the city problems and the soltuions with real world examples

Rohan Kini and Das talked about cycling and its advantages

It was once again a nice presentation by Sanjeev on CRS. There were quite a few who were interested in it..

Incidentally what came out of the event was that even with all the news reports etc on commuter rail..the understanding of it is almost totally lacking amongst the majority in the city..

Lots needs to be done on creating awareness abt CRS for sure..

Thanks!

Sri,

Thanks for posting the event update. Agree, Awareness among general public is generally low on such plans, initiatives. I am sure it will be still low for Namma Railu campaign.

Do we know what percentage of population knows about 'Bus Day'?

BTW, SB and DVsquare is working a mass contact and awareness program for Namma Railu. Hopefully in coming days, we should see announcements on that front.

Once again, Thanks for update so quickly, even before Sanjeev reached home after the event.

Thanks Srinidhi making it and updating

It was more of awarness session on susatanable transport and seesion went well on different urban transports.

It was well organised by SATTVA group. Thanks to them for organising this and more then 60 people who were no aware on CRS were able to get insight into CRS.

thanks for the reports

Thanks Sri and Sanjeev for sharing the reports on this event. Sanjeev - if possible, please put up the ppt you used.

Yes, DVS and I have signed up to execute a general awareness spreading campaign, slightly different from reaching out babus and 'influential' people.
