Should get paid to drive on (Ns) NICE road

[Sumanth ಸುಮಂತ್ @sumanthchandar]

NICE road should be renamed as Not-so-NICE Road.

Trucks occupying all lanes moving slowly not allowing other vehicles to move and some morons overtaking left right and centre putting all drivers at risk.

Due to this we can’t have safe breaking distance or driving in clusters.

For this torture we pay hefty toll charges: Tumkur Road to E-City, it is 306 rupees for a 43 KM journey which is 7.1 rupee per KM

Cars and two wheelers should either get a discount for the torture we need to go through using this road along with trucks or get at least one lane to move freely

Look at the audacity of these operators, they have safeguarded the cables using concrete, obstructing the pedestrians.

This is near the sattva knowledge court, green domain layout, Brookfield.

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".

[Common Man @cholarajaa]

Only 5000 people signed the petition. It is #Sad. Thousands of crores will be wasted for cars only Tunnel. costs 300 rupees for one way. How many people will use it regularly?

Even if it's 10000 cars per day, it will not cross 12 crores per year.
Remember only the common man pay

[Satya @solidview]

Many Bengaluru citizens are deeply disappointed with the Govt decision to impose the unwanted unscientific car-only Tunnel Road proposal.

Deaf Govt. only understands votes. Show the strength of the anger by signing the petition.

At least 100,000 pls🙏🏼

Why I Chose to Learn Tamil (Instead of Complaining About It)

When I joined CMC Vellore for my MBBS in 1989, little did I know that one of the most important skills I’d pick up outside the classroom would be—reading Tamil.

I had come from Bihar, where roads and public transport were notoriously poor at the time. So when I arrived in Tamil Nadu, I was genuinely impressed. The roads were excellent, the bus system well-organized, and the services surprisingly punctual. But there was one challenge: all the destination boards (on buses) were written only in Tamil.

There were no signs in English or Hindi. Sure, the bus route numbers were there—but who could memorize the numbers for every possible destination?

So, each time I had to catch a bus, I faced a choice:
Either stand at the bus stop looking confused and ask a local Tamil speaker to read the board for me (and feel awkward doing it repeatedly),
Or... learn to read Tamil myself.

I chose the latter.

It wasn’t about mastering the language—just enough to decode bus boards and shop signs. And it changed everything. I could now navigate confidently, spot landmarks, and even enjoy the satisfaction of reading signboards that once felt like hieroglyphics.

Later, during my MD and DM years, and while working as a lecturer in Neurology (2001–2004), that small decision continued to serve me well.

In hindsight, I could’ve joined the chorus of outsiders who complain about the lack of English signs. I could’ve argued that “we live in a multilingual country” or demanded change.

But instead, I chose to adapt. And that small act of respect towards the local culture paid me back in countless ways—with independence, connection, and a deeper appreciation of where I lived.

Sometimes, it’s easier—and far more enriching—to learn a few letters than to fight a system that's not broken, just different.

What is 'Pabandh' and how it is used (or misused) by Police in India

[Kapil @kapsology]

Went to police station for the first time in life with a group of society residents against the habitual offenders.

In the police station, the experience was good. All police officers were acting like gentlemen. They called the other party and gave a good thrashing in front of us.

We all went back home happy and cheerful.

Next day, a policeman from the police station visited the people named in the police complaint, had a tea and magically, things changed.

We started getting calls to accept police action (or no action) on the complaint, which we denied respectfully. Went to the police station to tell them that the pressure will not work and we will not accept the closure of the complaint. Followed up multiple times with the police and every time got the answer that action has been taken.

Tomorrow, got an update from "CM Complaint Portal" that police have closed the complaint without taking any action on the people named in the complaint. Not only this, from their side they have applied BNS 126/135 on 6 people—3 who are named in the complaint and randomly 3 from the other party who made the complaint (including me)—to be restricted legally by signing a bond so that we don't disturb peace in the society (still don't know wtf is this).

This way @ghaziabadpolice has cleared off its hands from another FIR/NCR in the logbook and made sure that honest people do not make much noise about the law and order in this country.

The police station concerned is Raj Nagar Extension.

Thank you @Uppolice @dgpup @myogiadityanath
