My 92 year old grandmother just emailed the Deputy Conservator of Forests, Forest Department, BBMP to object to the cutting of 55+ trees for the #SankeyFlyover project. Several of these trees have been around since before she was born #SaveSankey#Bengaluru#CitizensVoices
Why is BBMP hacking away at a perfectly healthy Gulmohar on Sankey Road? This tree gave pedestrians and houses shade - now it’s butchered so a commercial sign can shine. Death by a thousand cuts is exactly how Bengaluru ends up in this mess. @drashwathcn please take action.
I had the opportunity to present at the 1st World Symposium on Sustainable Transport and Livability in Bengaluru.
Bengaluru can achieve great accessibility outcomes just by completing the metro & suburban rail network.
The prerequisite is getting rid of the "Tunnel Vision".
In view of the cut-paste BBMP blunder infested 1 million dollar DPR, GoK must cancel the unacceptable Tunnel Road proposals for Bengaluru.
@DKShivakumar - Perils of bad planning was so evident yesterday at the KSCA. Now listen to sane voices and drop the idiotic Tunnel Roads.
Bengaluru - GoK has lost it. Our generation will pay 18000 crs in tax to fund the car-only wasteful Tunnel Rd. Next generation will pay even more in debt service and in tolls to use it (that is if built).
@siddaramaiah - Have you read the cut-paste BBMP DPR?
@RahulGandhi
BBMP has extended its unique DPR cut-paste culture to its PR video too!
See two screenshots from its YouTube video. Worli and Nariman Point feature in it!
On a serious note BBMP is delusional in its belief that they can solve traffic congestion with tunnels and more roads🤦
@DKShivakumar@bwssb Why are you inviting 10,000 people to Sankey Kere? This disrupts the lake's ecology, violates KTCDA laws, and angers local residents. The impact on lake wildlife and the garbage left behind are unacceptable.
Why is everyone so bent on destroying the natural ecosystem of Sankey Lake ? The trees were first cut , the nests of the birds removed ,and now the birds will be disturbed .In a city filled with construction , these are some quiet places for locals for some calm and nature .
The internal discord within BJP's in Bangalore north and the grass roots workers disapproval towards shobhakarandlaje sheds light on deeper rifts within BJP
Hence my candidature is a credible choice for Bangalore north voters disillusioned by divisive politics.
As an Former Rajyasabha MP & IIM professor, My profile resonates with all voters, offering a compelling alternative. In a political climate craving for integrity & competence, My candidacy represents a beacon of hope for those disillusioned by divisive politics. Support me and i will be your voice
Discussing somebody else's achievements because your achievements are:
✅ Disrupting communal harmony
✅ Destroying reputation of our city
✅ Sowing seeds of hate
✅ Creating awareness about emergency exits
🦵🏾out politics of hate
#VoteForConstitutionalValues#LokSabhaElections
Reminder:
Not MP’s job:
- Local roads, parks. Corporator.
- Schools, hospitals, water, electricity: MLA
- MP LADS too minor
MP’s job:
- National laws, LS interventions
- National budget allocation+spend
- GoI projects in state+constituency: central schemes, Metro, highways ..
Voters tell us of a missing person in Bangalore South
5 years missing
Didn’t show once
Not for Covid
Not when 2024 elections announced
Not after his candidacy now
But once @Sowmyareddyr’s is declared, he comes running
If this is her power before she’s MP, imagine after
Have witnessed firsthand @rajeevgowda's steadfast support in safeguarding Bengaluru North's environment & infra. His depth of knowledge & commitment to our city's future is exactly what we need. Bonus points : he is a wonderful human being as well.
Deeply honored to be selected as the Congress Candidate for Bengaluru North!
Gratitude to our esteemed national leaders Sonia Gandhi Ji , Shri @Kharge Ji, @RahulGandhi Ji, @priyankagandhi Ji , @kcvenugopalmp and @rssurjewala for their support. And to the state leadership under @Siddaramaiah and @DKShivakumar. In addition to the dedicated party workers, and supporters across the city.
I'm committed to securing victory with your support and serving Bengaluru North to the best of my ability. Let's work together for progress and prosperity!

Bengaluru City Corp (BBMP), often gets flak for bad footpaths, street lights, garbage, etc.
Active Citizens that understand how BBMP & other depts work resolve them by calling concerned ward level officers, but there is a simpler way
