@kris_sg People should be kind enough to use public transport more with in city limits on weekends atleast has they have bit of a time. Otherwise it's a chaos for the kind of infrastructure we have, which can't support too many public & private vehicles getting in to road

@Anjan94150697 @krishnabgowda @DKShivakumar No body is poor in Bangalore, easily they earn Rs 500 to 1k a minimum even if they go for daily wage..

[Arun Kumar G @govindappaarun]

@vinaysreeni @RahulGandhi This clearance is happening only in main roads, he is clearly saying use secondary or inner roads, so what's the problem..

@BJP4Karnataka ನಮ್ಮ ಏರಿಯಾ ಫುಟ್‌ಪಾತಲ್ಲಿ ಗೋಬಿ ಮಾರೋನು ನಾಲ್ಕು ಸೈಟ್ ಮಾಡಿದ್ದಾನೆ. ಫುಟ್‌ಪಾತ್‌ನಲ್ಲಿ ಹೂವು,ಹಣ್ಣು,ತರಕಾರಿ ಮಾರೋ ತುಂಬಾ ಜನ Duplex ಮನೆ, ಕಾರು, ಒಳ್ಳೆ ಆಸ್ತಿ ಮಾಡಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಒಬ್ಬರೂ ಒಂದು ರೂಪಾಯಿ ತೆರಿಗೆ,ಬಾಡಿಗೆ ಕಟ್ಟೋದಿಲ್ಲ, ಇನ್ನೂ BPL ಕಾರ್ಡ್ ಇಟ್ಟುಕೊಂಡು ಸರ್ಕಾರದ ಎಲ್ಲಾ ಉಚಿತ ಸೌಲಭ್ಯಗಳನ್ನು ಪಡೆಯುತ್ತಿದ್ದಾರೆ.

Extending skywalks to service road is a must need especially in ORR stretch..

[Deepak Bopanna @dpkBopanna]

Bengaluru Minister KBG does a late night inspection of the much talked about outer ring road.
Even as govt plans to develop this stretch, he had many suggestions to make. Here are a few.

LOWRY JUNCTION:
- Remove encroachments on footpaths.
- Rectify low-hanging BESCOM power cables.
- Repair and maintain service roads.
- Ensure a uniform design for bus bays, service roads, footpaths, drains and medians.

DODDANEKUNDI JUNCTION:
- Prepare and implement a traffic decongestion plan.
- Develop the area beneath the flyover on the lines of Shivanananda Circle.
- Fill potholes on the service road immediately.
- Restore dug-up roads without delay.
- Probe fresh road cuts after recent asphalting and fix accountability.
- Verify whether BESCOM or OFC agencies carried out the excavation.
- Take action if road cutting was done without permission.

KODIBISANAHALLI JUNCTION:
- Prepare a model traffic management plan.
- Install temporary kerbs on a trial basis to ease congestion.
- Continue the model if the pilot is successful.
- Improve the turning radius for smoother traffic flow.

DEVARABISANAHALLI JUNCTION:
- Take measures to reduce traffic congestion.

BELLANDUR – ECOSPACE:
- Shift the BWSSB trunk pipeline underground.
- Develop the stormwater drain (rajakaluve).
- Widen the road.
- Extend the existing skywalk up to the service road to improve pedestrian connectivity.

Number of cities with a million+ population in South India as of 2026

Tamilnadu: 8 cities : Chennai, Coimbatore, Madurai, Tiruchirappalli, Salem, Tiruppur, Erode, Vellore

Kerala: 7 cities: Kochi, Kozhikode, Malappuram, Thrissur, Kannur, Kollam, Thiruvananthapuram

AP + TG: 5 cities: Hyderabad, Warangal, Visakhapatnam, Vijayawada, Guntur

Karnataka? - 1 city : Bengaluru | Hubballi, Dharwad and Mysuru are only now crossing or approaching the one million mark as contiguous urban areas.

Karnataka's relatively weak network of large secondary cities has contributed to the concentration of jobs, higher education, healthcare, and investment in Bengaluru. We need a clear policy focus to build tier2 cities in Karnataka @CMofKarnataka

[Dibakar Dutta (দিবাকর দত্ত) @dibakardutta_]

Personal update: My time in Bengaluru has come to an abrupt end.

After having lived in the city for more than 10 years, I have relocated to my Tier 3 hometown in Tripura (Northeast India) for the foreseeable future.

When I first came here to study at the age of 16 in 2012, I was amazed by the people, culture and the enormous opportunities that the city had to offer.

There is no place like ನಮ್ಮ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು .

For millions of small-town men like me, Bengaluru gave hope and the possibility to dream big and extraordinary.

It provided a sneak peek into a world that did not exist for us.

I have never complained about minor inconveniences that I experienced in this city because Bengaluru was/is/will be 100x better than where I came from.

The vibe and weather of this city are unmatched.

Places like JP Nagar, Jaynagar, and Banshankari will forever be in my memories now. I will miss my favourite Masala Dosa and Chicken Boneless Meghna Biriyani, of course.

Lastly, I am eternally grateful to the locals (Kannadigas) who have always been kind, warm and welcoming to me.

Namma Bengaluru forever ♥️

Electronic City is living proof that Bengaluru doesn’t have a money problem. It has an execution problem.

Requesting @TVMohandasPai and @kiranshaw to personally take Bengaluru Development Minister @krishnabgowda on an early morning drive and walk through @ELCITA_IN’s jurisdiction.

Not at 11 AM.
Come at 6 AM.

Walk the streets before the city wakes up.

Here’s what you’ll see.

🧹 Roads already being swept.
🏃 Smooth, well-maintained roads that give runners and cyclists the confidence to use them every morning.
🚶 Wide, continuous footpaths protected by safety railings—not occupied by two-wheelers.
🌳 Landscaped medians and green spaces that are actually maintained.
🛣️ Clear lane markings and road signs that are visible.
🚦 Better traffic discipline.
🔧 Maintenance teams responding before problems become bigger problems.
✨ An industrial township that feels clean, organised and cared for.

Now keep driving.

The moment you leave ELCITA’s jurisdiction, the difference is impossible to ignore.

Broken footpaths.
Encroachments.
Faded lane markings.
Garbage.
Poor maintenance.
Pedestrians pushed onto the road.
The city changes almost instantly.
That raises an important question.

If Bengaluru can achieve this standard in one part of the city…

Why can’t we achieve it across the rest of Bengaluru?

This isn’t about building something new.

It’s about copying what already works.

Study ELCITA’s operating model.

Understand its maintenance standards.

Measure its response times.

Document its best practices.

Then replicate them—first on the Outer Ring Road, then across every zone of Bengaluru.

Good governance should never depend on your PIN code.

Every Bengalurean deserves the same quality of roads, footpaths and public spaces.

We don’t need another pilot project.

We don’t need another committee.

We already have a working model.

Now we need the will to scale it.

@Tejasvi_Surya How about travelling in IRCTCl trains too? , you can plan for Kengeri to WFD or YPR to Carmelram. So that people are aware and give a try..

[Arun Kumar G @govindappaarun]

@dpkBopanna See the indirect benefits of Siddu stepping down, we should support these kind of leaders irrespective of party.. and save Bangalore

[Arun Kumar G @govindappaarun]

@FriendsofBMTC

NEET aspirants were seen crying outside an exam centre in Bengaluru after allegedly missing entry due to delays caused by a Congress event/rally that blocked their route. If true, who takes the responsibility for their lost year?

[Krishna Byre Gowda @krishnabgowda]

₹ 2000 CR approved for internal road asphalting in #Bengaluru.

The Government has taken a fast and major decision to invest ₹ 2000 Cr to improve the local/ward level internal roads of Bengaluru. Entire major roads are taken up under different programs, Government felt the urgent need to improve local roads. In response to demands from MLA and public, the government has made a swift decision to make this major investment to improve road infrastructure.

Government has also given permission to call short term tenders to expedite the implementation. The funds are allocated to all constituencies irrespective of the Party of MLAs.

ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ನಗರದ ವಾರ್ಡ್ ಹಾಗೂ ಸ್ಥಳೀಯ ಮಟ್ಟದ ಒಳರಸ್ತೆಗಳ ಅಭಿವೃದ್ಧಿಗಾಗಿ ರಾಜ್ಯ ಸರ್ಕಾರವು ₹2,000 ಕೋಟಿ ಹೂಡಿಕೆ ಮಾಡಲು ಮಹತ್ವದ ಹಾಗೂ ತ್ವರಿತ ನಿರ್ಧಾರ ಕೈಗೊಂಡಿದೆ.

ನಗರದ ಪ್ರಮುಖ ರಸ್ತೆಗಳನ್ನು ವಿವಿಧ ಯೋಜನೆಗಳಡಿ ಅಭಿವೃದ್ಧಿಪಡಿಸಲಾಗುತ್ತಿರುವ ಹಿನ್ನೆಲೆ, ಸಾರ್ವಜನಿಕರ ದೈನಂದಿನ ಸಂಚಾರಕ್ಕೆ ಅತ್ಯಂತ ಅಗತ್ಯವಾಗಿರುವ ಒಳರಸ್ತೆಗಳ ಸುಧಾರಣೆಯ ತುರ್ತು ಅಗತ್ಯವನ್ನು ಸರ್ಕಾರ ಮನಗಂಡಿದೆ.

ಶಾಸಕರು ಹಾಗೂ ಸಾರ್ವಜನಿಕರಿಂದ ಬಂದಿರುವ ಬೇಡಿಕೆಗಳಿಗೆ ಸ್ಪಂದಿಸಿ ಈ ಮಹತ್ವದ ಅನುದಾನವನ್ನು ಸರ್ಕಾರ ಮಂಜೂರು ಮಾಡಿದೆ. ಕಾಮಗಾರಿಗಳನ್ನು ಶೀಘ್ರವಾಗಿ ಆರಂಭಿಸಿ ಪೂರ್ಣಗೊಳಿಸುವ ಉದ್ದೇಶದಿಂದ ಅಲ್ಪಾವಧಿಯ ಟೆಂಡರ್‌ಗಳನ್ನು ಕರೆಯಲು ಸಹ ಸರ್ಕಾರ ಅನುಮತಿ ನೀಡಿದೆ.

ಯಾವುದೇ ಪಕ್ಷಭೇದವಿಲ್ಲದೆ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರಿನ ಎಲ್ಲಾ ವಿಧಾನಸಭಾ ಕ್ಷೇತ್ರಗಳಿಗೆ ಅನುದಾನ ಹಂಚಿಕೆ ಮಾಡಲಾಗಿದ್ದು, ನಗರದ ಸಮಗ್ರ ಮತ್ತು ಸಮಾನ ಅಭಿವೃದ್ಧಿಗೆ ಸರ್ಕಾರ ಬದ್ಧವಾಗಿದೆ.

@devSinghal @ThatsAarthi @blrcitytraffic In spite of all this there is more office space continuing to be built on the ORR stretch and no stopping on that. and there is no parallel strech which exists, except a railway 🚃 line connects Hebbal to Karmelram which is under utilised
