    Good Morning

    Over all Sarvagna Nagar is in bad shape – no sweepers, no supervisor, no marshals. It goes on for weeks even months before any isuue is noticed or corrected.

    Please arrange a walk thru all areas and arrange a thorough cleaning.

    We need action Mr. MLA

The Karnataka government has notified the draft Bengaluru Metropolitan Land Transport Authority (BMLTA) rules — over three years after the BMLTA Act came into being — and has invited suggestions/objections by February 2nd, 2026.   The BMLTA was meant to be a unified transport body to regulate, monitor, develop and plan urban mobility in Bengaluru. The government had failed to constitute the Authority within the statutory timeline of six months. Now, the much-delayed draft rules propose to strip away all forms of transparency and accountability! One controversial clause (Rule 24) proposes to grant deemed approval to projects initiated between 2022…
