The reason for pollution!!

B'lore was once known as the garden city. Thats not true anymore.

The biggest cause for pollution, the BMTC buses, the autorikshaw etc...
I wonder if these vehicles even go for a regular service.. they are also the cause for noise pollution.

It always so happens that policemen, can never see any of these on road and catch them while they are making a mistake.. they just cant see them. people have heard of "selective listening", but the policemen in B'lore implement "selective seeing".

When the BMTC buses emit a huge cloud of smoke on the policemen' face.. they are so nonchalant. However, when a normal person riding his bike ( goes for the emission test regularly) gets caught for no reason.. thats coz policemen implement "selective seeing".

The autorikshaw.. they are so noisy, nothing can beat that, its even louder than a bullet. Apart from the noise they also emit smoke.. (they are trying to save on money, use kerosene) and as usual the policemen, do their duty without fail (catch a person who gets everything done on time).

Another manhole!!

Manhole and all kinds of ditches have caused a havoc in the recent past, yet the allotted representitives for the respective wards in B'lore still havent realised the seriousness of this..

Herez another manhole in Canara Bank layout close to Sahakaranagar, (near hebbal flyover) and there are 2 of them that are open..

Where shld i take this to?? who can fix this??

Do we have to keep telling the Govt wat to do??

Are the public here only to remind the Govt officials of thier jobs?? Its such a shame people don't know their job, which they are being paid for without any delay..

The Gas station...Gosh!!!

The petrol bunks in b'lore!! woow!! they cheat in a blink of an eye..

The other day.. my sis n i were driving down.. and we had to fuel the car.. so we stopped by the HP petrol bunk near the CBI road, we thought it was just another bunk to fuel the car.
we did not really pay any attention.

There was a guy already fueling his bike. Once he was done, the guy came and took the key as usual to open the tank and asked how much?? so as usual we told him.. for 500/-...

Even before the guy could start fueling the car.. the cashier came to collect the money.. we gave him the card.. when the person started fueling the car.. simulaneously, the cashier, asked for Rs.3/- change, why would anybody want 3 Rs change when given a card.. ??

In about a second everything that was happening around was so bizzare..

In about a fraction of a second.. my sis n i realised something was terribly wrong !!
you know its pretty normal for us to hear the man in bunk screamin his lungs out.." madam zero , madam zero...." a zillion times until we take a look at the reading.. which the man never did..

When we finally saw the meter, the meter reading was at 50/- already.. and we all know for a fact that.. the meter would not jump all the numbers till 50/- in a jiffy..
You know this all happend in a fraction of a second

Gosh!! then we realised.. that the bunk guy was trying to cheat us... he had fueled a bike before us and he continued the same for the car.. without refreshing the meter and no wonder he did not bother to tell us.. "madam zero"..
When asked him to put 50/- extra he denied.. he startd saying.. no madam it always turns zero automatically.. he startd raising his voice.. when i got out of the car.. and yelled at him.. he was still not willing to fuel for extra 50/-

By then.. there was a police constable who arrived at the bunk seeing me fight with the bunk guy.. when the police constable heard the story.. he stood by the bunk guy and asked him to fuel for extra 50/- and then left..

For the first time i'v seen a police man do the right thing!!

And people be careful about fueling in any bunk!! then can jus do anything to cheat us all!!

the public transport!!

The Kind of problems caused by the public transport!!...
when ppl get into the bus... the conductor makes sure.. he stands by the ladies.. and starts chit chatting with them.. "ivathu en adige madam??" "thindi en maadidri??.. n so on..

on the other side.. there are so many ppl waiting for the ticket to be issued.. but our conductor is busy talkin.. , and when he gets to the main rd.. he makes it a point to stop the bus in the middle of the road for atleast 10-12 mins and issue the ticket and create loads of traffic jam..

wat can one do with conductors like these??
