Residents of Mahadevapura are outraged at the response of BJP MLA Arvind Limbavali-led Mahadevapura Task Force- Mobility, on Twitter, saying that 110 villages will never match the infrastructure of planned layouts like Jayanagar and Koramangala.
The debate on Twitter started when Balagere Citizens Voice started drawing the attention of the civic administration to the narrow railway underbridge in Panathur that has become a bottleneck for traffic and is flooded during rains. Nearly 25,000 reside and work in the 3-4 km stretch affected by this bottleneck.
On Wednesday, the task force, an ad-hoc mechanism put together by the MLA, responded to this series of tweets that began on May 21. “We like your enthusiasm. 4 Decades back the Panathur Railway vent was a rajakaluve and it has got “transformed” into a road. Ground reality and aspirations need to be met somewhere. Cut the drama and look at pragmatic solutions…Each one had a choice to buy a property where they wanted to,” the handle tweeted in response, drawing the ire of several residents of the area.
