ಮಾನ್ಯ @CMofKarnataka @DKShivakumar ಮಲ್ನಾಡಿನ ಹಳ್ಳಿಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಊರುಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಕರಗದ ಒಣ ಕಸದ ತೊಂದರೆ ಗಂಭೀರ ಮಟ್ಟದಲ್ಲಿ ಹರಡುತ್ತಿದೆ
ಕಸ ವಿಂಗಡಣೆಯಾಗ್ತಿಲ್ಲ,ಸ್ಥಳೀಯ ಸಂಸ್ಥೆಗಳು ಮನೆಮನೆಯಿಂದ ಒಟ್ಟು ಮಾಡ್ತಿಲ್ಲ,ಮಂದಿ ಕಸ ವಿಂಗಡಿಸ್ತಿಲ್ಲ,ಹಾಗೆಯೇ ಮಂದಿ ಬೇಕಾಬಿಟ್ಟಿ ಕಂಡಕಂಡಲ್ಲೆಲ್ಲಾ ಕಸ ಎಸೆದು ನಮ್ಮ ಕಾಡು ಪ್ಲಾಸ್ಟಿಕ್ ಬೀಡು ಆಗ್ತಿದೆ

For those who don't understand Kannada: App-based taxi services (uber, ola, rapido, Green SM, Shoffr) may be in for a rough ride.

1. Karnataka minister Byrathi Suresh questions the transport commissioner as to why Ola and Uber don't have physical meters. He adds that local cab drivers have now willingly agreed to have physical meters.

2. The minister then goes on to say that Green SM (Vietnamese electric cab aggregator owned by the Vin Group) must also have meters, with minimum and maximum fares clearly mentioned. He says that if Singapore, Sri Lanka etc can have physical meters, why can't cabs operating in Karnataka follow suit?

3. The assembled cab drivers then press more demands. They want 1. Yellow board driving permits to be given only to those domiciled in Karnataka, with license also granted here. 2. They raise questions about an influx of young drivers from Kerala, and also allege that many of these drivers drive under the influence of drugs such as marijuana.

4. The minister then assures them that every cab plying in Karnataka will have physical meters with clear minimum and maximum fares, and to implement this, he says that he'll have officers stationed at Kempegowda International airport to check for compliance.

5. He also says that the penalty for non compliance will be Rs. 50,000. That's BIG.

So, these measures, if implemented will have major ramifications on the way the cab business, both app and non-app based will be carried out in Karnataka. Obviously, even other southern states may feel the after effects.

I wonder how Uber, Ola, Rapido, Shoffr and now GreenSM will handle this. This could potentially upend the entire business model.

While a minimum base fare is easy to implement, what happens to surge pricing? And will we have a cap on surge pricing? So far, app based agrregators have managed to avoid price capping.

Also, this seems to be taking parochial turn. Will Karnataka do a Maharashtra, and make things difficult for non local cab drivers? I have noticed a big influx in cab drivers (mainly app based) from Kerala, Odisha, West Bengal and sometimes Bihar and UP. If the state govt sides with the locals (like it ideally should), are we going to see protectionist measures?

Larger point: Inequalities between various states of India may be coming home to roost

@BelladArvind @INCKarnataka It's the duty/domain of union govt to be sovereign guarantor. If states have permission to be guarantor then Karnataka can&will take loan without union govt backing. Karnataka has the ability, credibility to get loan on its own.

AWARD-WINNING PLANTER BUSTED FOR DRUG TRAFFICKING

Mysuru, Nov. 11 - The Keralam Police have busted a drug trafficking network operating between Mysuru, Bengaluru and Keralam, with the arrest of a key supplier from Nanjangud.
In July 2025, the Maharashtra Police had busted another drug racket with links to Mysuru. The operation was being run from a garage-like shed at Unnathi Nagar in Belavatta, along the Outer Ring Road. Now, the Keralam Police have unearthed another network allegedly linked to Nanjangud.
Arrested accused has been identified as Dhanesh S. Nair alias Dani, 31, a native of Haripad in Alappuzha of Keralam, who was residing in Nanjangud. He is believed to be one of the main suppliers in the network. Ironically, Dhanesh received ‘Best Young Farmer’ award in 2023.

Remember HCU green murder where 10,000 trees were felled overnight destroying Kancha Gachibowli forest in Hyderabad?

Very similar scenes are unfolding at Satavahana University campus, Karimnagar, Telangana…right now.

Trees are being murdered, massive destruction is happening on campus which in inhabited by many animals including peacocks, deers & birds!

WTF is this development and who is even asking for this!?

The hate governments have for trees is unexplainable!

What is this obsession to destroy green cover?

Why so much hate for the environment?

@in_greensm drivers must know Kannada to work in Mamma Bengaluru. You have to ensure that. Priority for locals should be given in hiring.
Your app should have Kannada option and website should be also available in Kannada
Hope the company make necessary changes before the launch

There has been a growing demand for more MEMU trains to and from Bengaluru.

At least, these services should be operated till Bengaluru Suburban Rail Project (BSRP) becomes operational.
