Dear Anand, I remember the news item to which you are referring. The news item in TOI referred to the information obtained under RTI on Ramaiyengar Road and the fact that citizens knew that road had not been asphalted. What kria has put out yesterday is the fact that the matter was taken up with the Lokayukta, an investigation was done by the Lokayukta and a report submitted to BBMP corroborating the findings of Mr. Venkatram; that it led to a meeting being convened by the Lokayukta inviting BBMP Commissioner and that a plan of action was recommended to prevent such cases in the future. As such, I do not think your message needs to be forwarded to kria yahoogroup.
