Heartbreaking to see kids face this every day. Clear reflection of the civic apathy of our city leadership towards even the most basic needs of our neighbourhood.

NEW: US Ambassador Sergio Gor slams Indian TV news
"I love getting back home and watching Indian TV news shows. The later it gets, the crazier the shows become. At 6 PM you have 8 people arguing on the show. At 10 PM, there are 12 people who are all talking at the same time."
Journalist Abhishek Upadhyay, who has reported extensively on the Ram Mandir donation scam, has been booked in a new FIR in Ghaziabad.
He alleges police showed up at his home at night and refused to give him the full copy of the FIR.

🔥 “SH-35 VARTHUR Corridor: Where 4 KM Takes 2 Hours & 40 KM Takes 5 Hours!”🚨
🆘️ SH-35 Varthur–Gunjur–Kadugodi is no longer a road- it has become a daily endurance test for thousands of citizens.🚧
Residents are leaving 3–5 hours before flights, spending hours covering a few kilometres, missing flights, losing work hours and sacrificing family time. This is not “traffic inconvenience”; it is a governance and infrastructure crisis.
And the most disturbing part? Citizens have been raising this issue for years. Yet the response remains the same- assurances, meetings, tenders, delays and more assurances.
How long are residents expected to pay the price for administrative inaction?
@GBA_office@BECCUPDATES@krishnabgowda@DKShivakumar @GBAChiefCommu @MALimbavali@lkatheeq@osd_cmkarnataka — SH-35 urgently needs a time-bound solution, not another round of promises.
A Silicon city aspiring to be a global technology hub cannot have a major arterial corridor where 4 km can take 2 hours and reaching the airport requires leaving home five hours early.
Fix SH-35. Fix the bottlenecks. Fix the accountability.
Varthur residents have been patient for long enough. Their patience must not be mistaken for consent.

I genuinely want to understand who is responsible here.
The department whose job is to give us decent and safe roads?
The authority that issues driving licences and ensures people driving these huge tankers are actually fit to drive them?
The authority that allows these tankers to run on our roads and is supposed to ensure that the vehicle, registration and number plate are all compliant?
This is around Varthur CDP Road. Just see the condition of the road and the way these tankers move around people on two-wheelers.
At the end of all this, it is the common man who suffers.
We pay income tax, GST, road tax, registration charges and so much more. Asking for a decent road and basic safety is surely not asking for too much.
Do we really need to wait for someone to lose their life before action is taken?
Who is accountable?

These videos are circulating across various groups and are not recorded or verified by me. I am sharing them only because, after seeing them, I felt there are some genuine questions around road safety, enforcement and accountability that need to be asked.
A tanker runs over biker at Varthur, Bengaluru. The tanker had no number plate. Locals chased the driver who revealed that he had learnt driving five days ago and had no DL.
More details to follow

Remembering four organisations which steadfastly refused to participate in the Quit India Movement-
1. Muslim League (under Jinnah)
2 Hindu Mahasabha (under Sarwarkar)
3 RSS (under Guru Golwalkar)
4 CPI (under PC Joshi)
@sgurumurthy You are working overtime to make BJP unpopular among GenZ (2029 voters)
Understand real issues (unemployment, corruption, rising education cost, etc) and advice Govt to tackle these.
@ARanganathan72 It tells a story of Govt's inability to provide basic needs such as education and healthcare. So NGOs have to step in.
Fix the Govt first.
BJP promised to root out corruption, and India is more corrupted than 12 years ago.
BJP wasting energy at whataboutery and shouting.
Judge Ashwani Panwar who acquitted Brij Bhushan in sexual harassment case had also declined to order FIR against Kapil Mishra in 2020 Delhi riots case. Looks like a fine, independent & impartial judge who never lets any politician get unfairly prosecuted under his watch
