BMTC’s electric buses have turned into killer buses. Contracted out to private operators who hire drivers on a pittance — many with no road or traffic sense, some straight off truck-driving jobs — these buses are a menace on Bengaluru’s roads.
Today, a 60-year-old auto driver, Krishnamurthy, died at KR Circle after being hit by one.
Enough. Take these buses off the road until the operators replace the current drivers with properly trained ones.

Think white-collar crime, forensic auditing, and government asset forfeiture are modern inventions?

A 13th-century stone inscription from Tamil Nadu proves that the Chola Empire was doing all three—with ruthless efficiency.

Let’s travel back to 1225 CE, during the reign of Chola King Rajaraja III.

At the ancient Satchinathar Temple in Thiruppurambiyam, a massive financial scandal was quietly brewing. The temple's financial system was incredibly sophisticated.

They didn't just lump all their wealth into one treasury; they had highly compartmentalized funds with separate accountants for the main deity, the Goddess (Kamakkottam Nachiyar), and the attendant gods (ashta-parivara devas).

Managing this vast wealth were the Kanakku-kāniyudaiyargal; elite, hereditary temple accountants who held their prestigious jobs by birthright.

Believing they were close to royalty and above the law, they began skimming money off the top, systematically diverting sacred temple funds to pad their own pockets.

But the Chola bureaucratic machine was legendary for a reason. They didn't just blindly trust local authorities to keep honest books. The state ordered a rigorous "companion audit" to investigate the temple's finances.

External auditors painstakingly went through the localized ledgers, matched the accounts, and caught the hereditary accountants red-handed.

The total missing? A staggering 40,000 kāsu (Chola currency).

So, how did medieval Chola justice deal with corrupt white-collar workers?

They didn't just throw them in a dungeon or issue a simple fine. They wanted the state's money back. To do this, the authorities executed a brilliantly ruthless legal mechanism known as the Chandesvara Peruvilai (Sale in the name of Chandesvara).

In Saiva tradition, Lord Chandesvara is the strict, divine manager and chief steward of Shiva's property. Any legal transaction involving temple land,buying, selling, or leasing—was strictly executed in his name.

Using this law, the temple committee essentially executed a divine foreclosure. They legally seized the private, ancestral lands of the corrupt accountants, completely stripped them of their assets, and publicly auctioned the real estate off in the name of Lord Chandesvara.

The result? The stolen 40,000 kāsu was fully restituted back to the temple treasury. The state was made completely whole.

This brilliant piece of epigraphy shows us exactly how advanced ancient India's jurisprudence was.

The justice system prioritized strict financial restitution over mere punitive violence. The message was clear: if you steal from the gods, the state will make sure the gods take your house!

@Indian1836217 @IndianTechGuide Why? They are illegal shops. If I build a house on a footpath, will the government give me a house somewhere else?

[Veena Jain @Vtxt21]

Shivajinagara to Malleshwara, all major area foothpaths are being cleared

If Krishna Bure Gowda achieve and sustain this, then it is no less than a miracle 🫡

🚶 BENGALURU'S FOOTPATHS ARE GETTING THEIR SPACE BACK

From July 1–10, the Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA) is running a 'Safe Footpath Campaign' across 1,000 km of road network — clearing encroachments from footpaths in all five city corporations.

📊 WHY THIS MATTERS

30% of every 1,000 road accident deaths in Bengaluru are pedestrians. The Supreme Court has been clear: walking on a footpath safely is a fundamental right, not a privilege.

🚫 WHAT'S BEING CLEARED
➡Illegal parking on footpaths (vehicles will be towed)
➡Name boards, chairs, tables, and kiosks blocking pedestrian paths
➡Vendors and shops spilling onto walkways

✅ HOW IT'S BEING DONE
➡Notices will be issued before any action — not a sudden crackdown
➡Action will follow the Street Vendors' Protection Act and SC guidelines
➡Municipal officers, police, and clearance teams will coordinate
➡Damaged slabs and kerbs will be repaired alongside clearance

It follows the #1KmChallenge encouraging people to walk short distances instead of driving — Bengaluru is trying to become more walkable, one footpath at a time.

🗣️ WE NEED YOUR EYES ON THE GROUND

Let's make Bengaluru's footpaths walkable again — together.

@krishnabgowda Good job 👏

[Bengaluru Post @bengalurupost1]

Interesting how the TV script changes.

When footpaths are encroached: “Why are pedestrians forced onto the roads? Why so many accidents?”

When authorities remove encroachments: “Why this action?”

You can’t demand safe, walkable footpaths and oppose every enforcement drive that makes them possible. Footpaths are for pedestrians. Period.
