@Restolex_ @Restolex1 Looking forward to your response

@Restolex_ @Restolex1 bought a restolex mattress 4 years back, which got me severe back pain, that has 7 years warranty. Customer service is offering 2000 INR as a discount for new buy, as a cover for warranty. what a joke !

@MALimbavali @GBAChiefComm @krishnabgowda @ChristinMP_ @RGResidents please allocate funds and fix Chikanayakanahalli road which is a vital connecting rd between Ecity and Sarjapur rd with many schools located here. It is a road hazard right now for commuters.

[Pulse of the People @CitizenPulseX]

Government intervention is now imperative. 🚨

@CMofKarnataka @DKShivakumar @osd_cmkarnataka @lkatheeq @rk_misra @GBA_office @GBAChiefComm , please liaise directly with @mla_shivanna @MLAShivanna and the concerned departments ensure immediate action on the deteriorating Doddamara Road, Rayasandra–Guttahalli and Gattahalli–Doddakannelli stretches.

This is no longer a routine civic complaint. Residents and daily commuters are being forced to endure unsafe, unmotorable roads every day, including severe hardship for persons with disabilities.

The MLA must be brought to the ground, the concerned agencies directed to act, and a clear time-bound resolution delivered without further excuses or political blame games.

@CitizenPulseX supports @ArivuExpress’s demand for immediate accountability and stands firmly with @TVMohandasPai & @kiranshaw support for good cause, in the best interest of residents and commuters.

@krishnabgowda Please intervene now, coordinate with the MLA and authorities, and relieve residents and commuters from this prolonged hardship.

@kiranshaw I stay in Chikkanagamangala, under Anekal constituency and I haven't seen any road work for past 4 years and the situation is horrible. It's like people living there ( almost 7 to 8 K) are not humans

[Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw @kiranshaw]

Pls don’t taunt me as a billionaire. I am speaking on behalf of citizens who don’t have a voice n asked me to raise these issues. I do not use Anekal roads frequently but I live in Huskur n can tell you that the road between Huskur n Sarjapur Road is unmotorable.

@gailindia ??

[Jithesh @JitheshChandera]

@gailindia I have applied Gail connection for close to 2 years now. Connection started giving in my apartment for 6 months now but it's still not done in my flat even after multiple follow ups. It's really frustrating.

Why our municipalities are not able to deliver?

Mumbai’s Municipality, BMC — Asia’s largest civic body with an annual budget of 80,000 crore — has failed to deliver anything praiseworthy. BBMP (now GBA), the second richest municipality in India, is no different. Nothing they build lasts.

So what’s the problem? Where is the bottleneck?

There is a deep-rooted underworld that runs through these corporations. An invisible web connecting systemic corruption, political funding, and institutionalized mafia that controls every corner of the city.

If you want to understand how this ecosystem works, watch City of Dreams, a web series loosely inspired by Mumbai’s political families (Thackrey et. al). It perfectly shows how one family or a handful of powerful people control everything — from money flow to illegal activities, from police to municipal decisions.

The same story repeats across India — Delhi, Kolkata, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Mumbai — everywhere. The main goal of every political party is to capture the municipality and its enormous funds. The money is so huge that it can literally make or break elections.

In reality, only 30–40 percent of any project money is spent on actual work. The rest vanishes in commissions, layers of approvals, and political cuts. Tenders are inflated two to four times the real cost, then delayed again and again so budgets can be revised and more money looted.

That is why a road meant to last a year breaks in just two weeks. Not because of lack of funds, but because it was designed to last only two weeks — so another work order can be raised, and another round of loot can begin.

The honest are punished, the corrupt are rewarded. The system is designed to fail.

And when you ask the Prime Minister to intervene, they say it’s a state subject. Then what is the PMO doing while cities collapse and our tax money goes down the drain?

Solution

I won’t give you false hope. You are on your own. Either get used to it or fight.

Expose corruption whenever you can. You have social media — use it. Name and shame. Ask tough questions to every government official and public representative you meet.

We are 150 crore. Politicians and Babus are barely 1.5 crore. If even 10 percent of us become vocal, things will change faster than anyone can imagine.

Own your street. Own your city. Own your country.

This is your home. Don’t migrate — fight for your right.

Vibgyor School Road, East Bengaluru.
Tarred on 26th September, and now, within just 15 days, the tar is peeling off!
Imagine the level of corruption!
Shame on the citizens of Bengaluru for tolerating such agencies, politicians, and officers!

Hosa Road, Bengaluru - spitting image of Regent Street, London.

[#YeThikKarkeDikhao @YTKDIndia]

🚨 Welcome to India’s “Tech Capital” where crores are spent every year but even a km of proper road is rare.

Hosa Road, Bengaluru — looks less like a road, more like a crater exhibition! 🤡🤦‍♂️

[Civic Opposition of India @CivicOp_india]

Hosa Road right now! The situation hasn’t improved much despite interventions from @blrcitytraffic and @GBA_office. We need a permanent fix, do something concrete! @siddaramaiah @DKShivakumar @comm_blr_south

Anna, Please visit #hosaroad #singasandra ward. People are dying here, but no responses from the @CMofKarnataka @comm_blr_south Location: Hosa road to Rayasandra Circle, Rayasandra Circle - Ghattahalli, Rayasandra circle - choodasandra. Dodddmara Road complete stretch.

[Citizens Movement, East Bengaluru @east_bengaluru]

Hosa Road: A narrow village road turned into a major city road without proper planning. No standard road width, alignment & drainage. A perfect example of what’s wrong with Bengaluru!
