Dec-16 as Nirbhaya/ Damini (rather, the actual name) Raakhee day

The Delhi gang-rape case has brought to the fore the need for fast-tracking of not just the courts, but all of the following:

Praja Party - New year, Award for Namma Railu Project and anything else for celebration

Prajagalu's

- Long time from the last meet

- Long time we celeberated together

- Long time we had discussed something concrete on Namma Railu as how to move forward

(SB was also mentioning about meeting after new year break to discuss further strategies regarding PIL for Namma Railu)

Protest Lodged with PM, CJI on Increasing Crime Against Women!

Enough is Enough !

This is precisely what the whole nation said in past 10 days since the unfortunate horrific incidence of brutal rape in New Delhi. Rightly nation erupted in protest and anger which was displayed on the streets of every city across India.

Confederation of Indian Industries [CII] conference at Lalith Ashok

 

The day long conference started with the welcome address by Mr. L Krishnan, Chairman CII Karnataka State Council. The irony of rapid urbanization according to him was that we expect different results with identical actions. The vehicles to people ratio has increased rapidly which is holding the environment to ransom. Some disturbing news does make us sit up and think.

Expectations from Railway Budget 2013-2014

Hi Guys, I am not sure, when the next railway budget is (I believe it is going to be held in the month of February), but thought of what the state of Karnataka can really expect from this budget with K.H Muniyappa out of the railways ministry...
