The dust has settled over the IPL frenzy and the Royal Challengers’ win, following the tragic stampede at Bengaluru’s Chinnaswamy Stadium, and the government is working to establish accountability. Now, it is time to calmly review the systemic flaws that have come to light and introspect on how citizens may also have contributed to the tragedy. What appears to be the chief cause is the ‘culture of lawlessness’ that pervades our entire society — from elected representatives and bureaucrats to private enterprises, fans, and ordinary citizens. Did the government compromise public safety? What was the urgency, or even the necessity, for…

Five questions to ask of ourselves after the tragedy of the Bengaluru stampede
The stampede exposed critical failures in governance and policing, highlighting systemic gaps and a lack of civic discipline.
Will be interesting to correlate with what the Mahadevapura MLA had claimed as his personal achievement around the same time last year…. I remember the booklet brought out by him claiming construction of community halls across all wards… I find a mention of the same here….
Wonderful job, he has covered almost all areas under his constituency
This MP is better than the other MP, who has spent the entire amount in all projects completed, without any balance leftover. The cost of certain things are not at par with the market pricing, especially the electronic items provided to the schools and other institutions. It must be taken as a duty to keep a tap on those projects, as to whether they are functioning properly / material is in tact in its place OR being misused etc.
Who’s Emerge Tech/EEPRED? How do these projects get prioritized?
How come majority of the works are carried out by EEPRED? They seem to bag all the tenders??? Only building more and more toilets is not going ot help.!! What has he done to improve major issues in this constituency like traffic, terrible road conditions, increasing dust and pollution?
Mahadevpura is one of the constituency under Mr P.C. Mohan which is totally neglected. Roads and footpaths here are worst than many rural areas, Traffic condition is chaotic. Even there has been fatal accidents like a baby getting crushed under truck, but nothing changed.
Also, most of the expenses written above are over-inflated. Does it take 10 lac Rs to build a toilets (refer expense 8,9,10,11 in year 2010-11) ? Pure waste of tax-payer’s money.
Traffic seems to be a major issue in this constituency. Every day, when i woke up, i can see lines of vehicles queued up,trying to sneak away past the signal momentarily. But, it is not only the MP who has to resolve this issue. The onus lies on citizens as well, who recklessly drive vehicles. Everyday i commute to office, i can see that there is a huge jam and in each and every car, single person is sitting. Wouldn’t it be good if we do car pooling.Most of us are IT employees and we flock to EPIP or ITPB , and we do display enthusiasm in our company sponsored CSR activities, but when it comes to common sense, we lack. We never gave chance to ourselves for improvement. If we make a habit that we can carry along 3-4 persons in our car, traffic problem will ease a bit. All of us are in hurry to reach office, without caring what shortcuts or traffic violations we make. I am not taking side of this MP, but in order to raise complain, we should be in a position to raise our voice. Every weekday, post 8:30 am , you can see ruckus everywhere. We do want change, but we won’t change ourselves . What great citizens we are . Just to make it simple, vote to that person, whom you think is worthy enough and that candidate will be worthy, only if you think that you are worthy and responsible citizen of this country and you will cast your vote judiciously Rest is your choice.
