When we are talking about underground and overhead roads, can we also talk about walking, running and cycling highways?

Follow Bengaluru has numerous lakes and parks. Known as a garden city, we all love walking and running in these parks. The city still maintains a good amount of green cover and trees along regular...

In foreign countries, getting commercial license for heavy vehicles is three times more difficult than for passenger cars, because the risk is very high in heavy vehicles. However, in India HMV license is just as easy to get as a Scooty license. I request @HYDTP police to pls

Doing everything except the obvious! Why aren’t they adding more capacity?
Starting October 1, 2025, the Railway Board will restrict general reservation bookings on the IRCTC website and app to Aadhaar-authenticated users for the first 15 minutes after booking opens for any train. This rule currently applies only to Tatkal bookings. No change in

🚨 Waiting for insurance approval on the day of discharge has to be worst experience ever (no matter which insurer). Why can't hospitals/TPAs do UPI/CC mandate and let the patient go home while they keep playing their ping pong on useless queries. This is so easily fixable ❌

Karnataka politicians r busy creating new cities right now (Kwin city, Quantum city etc). Why not develop existing city areas? Because land price gains here already captured. Politicians have bought land near those new cities & are working hard for it's price appreciation.
Disgraceful ! In #Bengaluru, school kids had to be rescued after their bus nearly toppled on the cratered #Balagere–#Panathur Road. How long will netas & babus stay numb to citizens’ pain? Do our children’s lives mean nothing? #FixRoads #SaveOurKids

The absolute apathy towards the infra needs of the outer city residents is unbelievable. Two wheelers skid and fall and injure themselves everyday. Today, even a large vehicle is not a safe transport option! @DKShivakumar - when will BrandBengaluru shine here, a few kms
A school bus ferrying nearly 20 children fell into a pothole on the Balagere–Panathur Road today morning. The children had to be rescued through the emergency exit @the_hindu

walking 2.4 km of Bengaluru footpaths showed me: - tunnel juice - barbed wire - desire paths - bushwhacking - pavement pudding - a stairwell into a drain - something I can't type here don't watch this if you have a weak stomach

This is how limited cars are in capacity. No number of flyovers or tunnels can fix this inherent flaw. https://t.co/aDA8YLoUky

Looks like we are living in a idea supremacist world now
We can illustrate this by comparing how people react to an upcoming talk by a speaker they disagree with. High-rung thinkers find a lot of value in having their beliefs challenged. Low-rung thinkers, not so much. But only the idea supremacist tries to cancel the event.

Was playing around with image generation in Nano Banana. One of these images is clearly not Bengaluru. Which one and how do you know that?

Every AI company will be showing ads in about 2 years. Let the VC funding run out.
Here's my large bet. Every AI model company will actually be a browser company. Because the world wide web doesnt have an API - and yeah MCP will take 40 years to deal with the pile of steaming shit that is html & javascript. The browser is the platform for consumer AI.

@nileshtrivedi Number recycling is a major problem. It is impossible to get fresh numbers today. For many use cases like for example you want to register a company and want to use a fresh number - you can't get it. If you get a recycled number it's possible it's already registered in someone's

Jasprit Bumrah can walk on a footpath with his son because he has enough money to go abroad. Can a common man in India walk with their children on footpath? Answer is NO!! Our footpaths r captured by illegal vendors or r full of garbage. Time for introspection!!

Police is blaming BMTC. BMTC is blaming the victim. No one is blaming the real culprit @BBMPofficial that is somehow always doing " Road work" but there are no proper roads Anywhere. Why are we paying road tax again?

Shouldn’t this notice be physically placed in that location instead of in a newspaper?
For #BengaluruMetro's #PinkLine. The elevation section (Kalena Agrahara-Tavarekere, 7.5km) is to open by March '26. The UG section (Dairy Cirlce-Nagavara, 13.76km) will open b/w Sept & Dec '26. @WF_Watcher

NICE road should be renamed as Not-so-NICE Road. Trucks occupying all lanes moving slowly not allowing other vehicles to move and some morons overtaking left right and centre putting all drivers at risk. Due to this we can’t have safe breaking distance or driving in clusters.
