Can someone organize a meet with BWSSB

4 November 2008 - 12:03am — silkboard

Plenty of transportation going on around here. One Bangalore public body that needs more attention on Praja is BWSSB. Of special interest to us should be their ambitious "Cauvery Water Supply Scheme Stage IV Phase - II to bring in 500 MLD Potable Water". I picked the title up from BWSSB's current projects page. Newspapers carry very little updates (I mean conslidated updates) on this project which is worth Rs 3383 crores. Receipt of bids was due on 26 September, wonder what happened.

What the "public" doesn't get about "transport" ?

3 November 2008 - 6:09pm — cvikash

What the public doesn't get about transport is similar to what the public doesn't get about "climate change" or many other problems which seems to be drowning us with their increasing complexity.
