| Indiscriminate widening of roads, thoughtless construction of flyovers,underpasses and other short term measures are not only insufficient but also are detrimental to the environment next to us. There is no hope/track record that the authorities will do anything to solve this issue in a sensible manner. Old timers among us can relate to how much Bangalore changed in the last few years, for worse. Are the authorities solely to blame for the current traffic mess in Bangalore? Do We, the citizens, have no role to play? Are we going to keep ranting or do something about it? Can We, You and I do something about this? "Yes! We Can, You! Can, I! Can" Come join us to hear GV Dasarathi(84') on how he started CyBaNa[Cycle, Bus, Nadiodu(walk)] and doing his part for our better tomorrow. Let us listen to how he, the CEO of a software firm manages this day in and day out. Use this opportunity to shutdown all excuses and start on a healthy, wealthy and wise path. Register Now! and be there. Our last meet on 10th April 2010 received a great response. How do you balance money making and charitable cause? A practical approach to this question is what Sudhakara Murthy's speech can be sumarized as. He has an open letter addressed to us, do have a look at it and feel free to contact him. | |||
