I really hope I don’t have to do this frequently. But, if officers and contractors do not listen and do their job, unfortunately, I will be forced. I appeal to them to do their job properly.
Today, I happened to observe an asphalt work in progress. I was doubtful of the quality. I asked the Commissioner to inspect this asphalt work. Indeed, the work was found to be substandard. Sadly, officer is suspended and contractor penalised.
ನಾನು ಆಗಾಗ್ಗೆ ಹೀಗೆ ಮಾಡಬೇಕಾಗಿಲ್ಲ ಎಂದು ನಾನು ನಿಜವಾಗಿಯೂ ಭಾವಿಸುತ್ತೇನೆ. ಆದರೆ, ಅಧಿಕಾರಿಗಳು ಮತ್ತು ಗುತ್ತಿಗೆದಾರರು ತಮ್ಮ ಕೆಲಸವನ್ನು ಸರಿಯಾಗಿ ನಿರ್ವಹಿಸದಿದ್ದಾಗ ಮಾತ್ರ ನಾನು ಇಂತಹ ಕಠಿಣ ಕ್ರಮಗಳನ್ನು ತೆಗೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳಬೇಕಾಗುತ್ತದೆ. ಅವರು ತಮ್ಮ ಕೆಲಸವನ್ನು ಸರಿಯಾಗಿ ಮಾಡುವಂತೆ ನಾನು ಮನವಿ ಮಾಡುತ್ತೇನೆ.
ಇಂದು, ನಾನು ಡಾಂಬರೀಕರಣದ ಕೆಲಸವನ್ನು ಗಮನಿಸಿದೆ. ಗುಣಮಟ್ಟದ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ನನಗೆ ಸಂದೇಹವಿತ್ತು. ಈ ಡಾಂಬರು ಕೆಲಸವನ್ನು ಪರಿಶೀಲಿಸಲು ನಾನು ಆಯುಕ್ತರನ್ನು ಕೇಳಿದೆ. ವಾಸ್ತವವಾಗಿ, ಕೆಲಸವು ಕಳಪೆ ಗುಣಮಟ್ಟದ್ದಾಗಿರುವುದು ಕಂಡುಬಂದಿದೆ. ಪರಿಣಾಮ ಅಧಿಕಾರಿಯನ್ನು ಅಮಾನತುಗೊಳಿಸಲಾಗಿದೆ ಮತ್ತು ಗುತ್ತಿಗೆದಾರರಿಗೆ ದಂಡ ವಿಧಿಸಲಾಗಿದೆ.

"Somewhere nevertheless one year delay, two years delay, these are really inexplicable when we interface with people. This culture has to change. And, I have said it many times, this is an engineering job. And in engineering, if it is possible, it is possible. There is nothing impossible in an engineer job. It is just a matter of getting ourselves geared up to the task and following it up till the job is done."
KBG shows promise by speaking hard facts. Hope follow ups pushes the work in right direction for early completion
Ordered 5 fridges from @AmazonIN & got a total nightmare: delivery extortion, items broken by staff, & 2 verified manufacturing defects. Forced to buy offline, but I've lost thousands in non-refundable fees & EMI charges for YOUR failures. Refund my fees! @AmazonHelp 🧵👇

@Sid932280470377@blrmetrotracker That isn't practical. Interchanges are a proven approach in mature metros like Delhi and other European cities. What you need is suburban rail.
That said, pedestrian infrastructure definitely needs major improvement for better adoption.
Bengaluru: A study by Indian Institute of Science (IISc), supported by Biocon Foundation, found that Namma Metro’s Yellow Line could significantly improve public health, wellbeing and quality of life in Bengaluru.
Based on surveys of 600 residents and commuters, study found 83% were willing to shift to the Metro. Researchers said Metro use can increase physical activity, reduce exposure to pollution and heat, improve mental wellbeing, boost productivity and lower accident risks. The study also called for better last-mile connectivity and pedestrian infrastructure to maximise benefits.@OfficialBMRCL@iiscbangalore
The 1st #BlueLine (airport corridor) train is here!
All 6 coaches reached the Baiyappanahalli depot this morning.
Except for luggage racks, it's similar to the #PinkLine train.
The train won't run on the mainline soon as the tracks are not ready!
