Sir.
Congratulations and best wishes.
You being a member of Government, can not stop from any "requests".
I am not asking for a personal favour . My only wish is to see a police setup, which applies law to all sections of society equally. That according to me is one of the primary requirements, and then every thing will fall in place.
Same hold good with traffic management in Bangalore. That I will reserve for future some other time.
On a side note through... came here through "tender coconut" blog post.
Its amazing that you started 6 medical colleges in a single academic year. I wish something like that happened in Kerala also. Here a single medical seat in a private institution costs around 40 Lakhs.
Dear Sir,
Recently I read an interview of your's where you have mentioned about Naxlite problem in Karnataka.
I am afraid that even though the Naxlite problem is not very evident and greater problem like in other states, It might get bigger if the Government doesn't give much importance or stop taking action on it. Also the time when Naxlites are not making news or creating havoc, they might be regrouping and making their organization stronger. Next time they might give us some unexpected surprises. So government should always be on alert and keep their intelligence working at all the time. We should keep our police forces well prepared to break the naxlite networks and they should be working all the time to make this happen.
At the same time Government should also connect with people of Naxal affected backward areas. Government should make sincere effort to understand and respond to their problems. We need to have a plan to develop those areas so that Naxalites will not have any ground to stand and their ideologies will be obsolete.
As a concerned citizen of Karnataka, this is my sincere request.
All the best to your tenure as Home minister of Karnataka.
Jai Hind. Jai Karnataka
Acharya Ji,
Your carrier profile indicates true grass root leader, who started his work from local governance. I wish your journey continue to New Delhi.
Sir, I am a great admirer of you as well as BJP. However, I would like to understand few things which till now I haven't understood.
1. Why dont we(strong hindu beliver) have any group which vehemently raises in media the communal issues like ASSAM, DHULE MH, AP where Hindus suffered the most?
2. Why cant BJP start TV channel to convey good works done by them as well as RSS?
Sir this is media /ad world. Unless we create our own, we will loose eventually which I fear the most.
Today educated people think that hindus r responsible for minority issues. This is because they have really not seen what the issues minorities have created.
Interesting to know.
Honorable Home Minister,
I am pleased to introduce myself as Dhruva Kumar Avadhany, Managing Director of a fledgling software firm, Samartha InfoSolutions. With respect to the vehicular traffic situation with Bangalore city, I have a suggestion that have been implemented in one of our erstwhile organization's parking lot, for controlling the number of vehicles to be parked, thereby overcoming the limitation of parking space and this scheme has worked very well.
What we have done is, we have disallowed certain vehicles on the basis of the last digit of its registration number, on specific working days. This has helped reduce around 20% of vehicles on each day and saved a lot of fuel to individuals and to the nation. And more importantly, it helped provide parking space for the rest. The system goes like this. We use to work 5 days a week. Vehicles with Registration Numbers ending with 1 and 2, are not allowed on Mondays. Similarly 3 & 4 on Tuesdays, 5 & 6 on Wednesdays and so on. Since we have peak traffic on these working days we can apply the same technique to all the private vehicles that are in Bangalore, provided there is no legal issue. Also, spreading awareness amongst our people through a media campaign and requesting them to adopt this policy, may help speedy implementation of this unique scheme.
Saying some thing is easy, but executing the same demands commitment and dedication. So let me start from my own end. My vehicle number is 2254 and I will not use my vehicle on any of the Tuesdays between 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM within Bangalore urban limits. It is my small gesture to ease Bangalore Traffic. And, I further promise to inform all my friends and colleagues to take a similar step in easing our Bangalore traffic flow. Also, I humbly suggest that if we seek inputs from the general public, we may get other innovative proposals and good suggestions. This will bring to fore, the Voice of the Common Man.
Last, but not the least, I humbly request that you use your distinguished office to advise/instruct major companies, including Software Giants within Bangalore, to implement the above innovative vehicular usage policy within their organizations, in order to make a beginning.
Sincerely
Dhruva Kumar
for the Government and for the People.
Respected Sir,
Thanks for posting my request on Bangalore Traffic Problem. Since it got delayed I have started a blog to collect public opinion and suggestions. If you or your advisor who manages your routine work can visit http://dhruvapushpa.blogspot.com/ and listen to "Voice of Common Man". Very useful constructive ideas were provided by different people. It will be very nice if you can ask some one to blog for you regularly on that site.
Thanks
Sincerely yours...
Dhruva Kumar
be a little more firm - catch the sena monkeys - including the muthalik idiot - give him some of the famous karnataka police treatment - not a heroes welocme and exit - after that , he will think tem times - before coming out in public - for such stupid stunts - if you need help - ask the kerala police - they will give him a sound thrasing - without a single mark - appearing
ours is a beautiful country - dont let these un-employed monkeys spoil it
Mr. Acharya I'm very sad and shocked to see how Hinduism is being targeted in your state under the pretext of targeting Mr. Muthalik and SRS. A Christian terrorist woman by the name of Nisha Susan is targeting Hindu Dharama and misleading youth. She with the help of Anti India media group Tehelka have come up with websites, logos and volunteers to target Hinduism and I have not seen any action yet from either you or the BJP workers in ur state. If you dont wake up now then nobody will be able to save BJP in Karnatka..Please arrest that anti national Nisha Susan immediately

Sir
This is the right time to abolish dispensing and priscribing of scheduled drugs by BAMS and bums practioners,by proper legislation.So that public at large will be benefited.
Sir,
News paper Times of India is the biggest enemy and spoiling Indian culture. It is more interested in posting nude pictures in sports page, publishing article on how to dump one's wife etc. Now it has started targeting you. Sad that their priority is not real issue. You better avoid briefing that news paper and I want you to express your opposition openly. Sir, be aggressive. We are with you.
Thanks
