Sky-walk, literally

28 November 2010 - 5:38pm — murali772

The BBMP, it would appear, likes to impart literal meaning to the term sky-walk. This set (pictures below), coming up at the High Grounds junction (facing the Sophia school, and behind Basava Bhavan), has a ground clearance enough for a BMTC bus to pass under, even with a full grown adult standing erect on top.

The Radia Tapes

28 November 2010 - 10:56am — pdk

I'm sure a lot of Praja users have read about and listened to The Radia Tapes and derived a lot of joy and/or sorrow out of them. Others may not be aware of where to access them since the media has virtually blacked out the news, except for some old fogies like The Hindu, Outlook magazine, and DH today and disrespectful upstarts like Open magazine.

So the routes, at least the end points, are finally out from the DPR for PH II. I still dont understand what makes the DMRCL a better authority to develop these reports, no Idea of what traffic studies were done and what surveys were done..never heard of any..thought these are the basic inputs for putting out a plan report..

Is Yeddy misusing BMTC buses?

26 November 2010 - 8:24am — silkboard

Wouldn't you like to know if Yeddy is paying from his pocket for the self promoting Ads that are appearing on the back of BMTC Buses? If Karnataka government is paying for these ads, then what is the justification for this spending? Even if there is a legally justifiable reason, why should these ads have full body picture of Yeddy?

BMTC and publishing bus timings

25 November 2010 - 10:42pm — GNT

We all know that BMTC can't maintain a simple web site with details about their services and timings.

I remember seeing one before the first Bus Day. After that, I haven't seen an updated one.

Should we offer help in putting one together?
