Corporation Elections for all BBMP wards are now due to be held in March as per the latest HC order. This was slated for Feb 21st previously, but was postponed by one court to give time for reservation but now another court has ordered it to be done next month.
I have been trying for years to get people to vote. But I keep hearing excuses about how they tried but their name is not on the voting list. It is ironic that the most educated members of society are the ones who do not go out and vote. Each time I went to vote in my polling booth for the parliamentary and assembly elections, I didn't even find 5 people there.
Please check if your name is in the electoral roll at http://ceokarnataka.kar.nic.in/indexw.asp . If it isn't, please follow the instructions to enroll yourself. Try and get a Voter ID too, but in this election you could get by with other proof. Quote:

Amen to that. The drivers have absolutely no road sense in Bangalore. Bikers routinely cut red lights and cars routinely block the free left-turn lane. I sometimes wish Bangalore was a bit like how Bombay used to be (don't know how it is now) where one got pulled over and fined for such shenanigans. |
