The Bangalore, also known as the IT capital of India, is witnessing a total collapse infrastructure as far as traffic is concerned. Don't blame it only on docile government, lack of civic sense by public and corporates is equally responsible for it. Please find few snaps attached, which proves how the Bangalore corporates add to the traffic chaos. These snaps clearly indicate that one of the IT giants, Tata Elxsi, is using roads as their parking lot.
all. Nobody has any rights to use the roads and foot-path to park vehicles. I have also sent these pictures to an e-mail address (dcomeast@bcp.gov.in) found on the bangalore poilce website, but I have not got any reponse from any one of them. I also tried calling the traffic control room but the langauge is the barrier, looks like they always accept complaints in the regional language only.

Have you informed traffic commisioner (transcom@kar.nic.in). Somebody in the same blogger has mentioned that it was useful. The same company is parking vehicles in ITPL whitefield road. I am goning to be mailing: transcom@kar.nic.in
partha@ I have not mailed to the given mail-di as yet, but i will do it right waya. Thanks lot dude :-)
Hi guys,
Good to see that you have initiated the process. Can you get more snaps where most of the Lorries/Heavy Vehicles are parked on the same road from KR Puram Rly Station to ITPL. We have already intiated some ideas from our side to drive all these vehicles who make the entire road as parking slot along with some other problems.
well i dunno if u know this but the place whr the bus has been parked is a place whr the volume of traffic is very low.......and i hav neva seen anybody facin probs cause of that................
@prem: I think what you are saying is right. I'd told Ravi this as well. Looks like a wide stretch of road and hence it would be hard to prove that anybody is inconvenienced by this.
@Hawkeye:
1. I know it may not cause great inconvenience to the commuters, because of whatever reasons but the company is doing something wrong.
2. I want to use this opportunity to find a channel to tackle such issues. If i am able to tackle this, i will be able to tackle other similar but more critical issues.
@we : I would start that once i find a channel tackle these kind of issues. Any suggestions??
Hi Partha,
thanks for bringing this up. i am working with tata elxsi and have already brought up the situation with the admin. which have promised that this will not happen in the future.
thanks again for bringing up this.
--Prakash.
I have read the comments posted already. What prem and hawkeye are saying is right but not absolutely. It doesnt mean that if the road is wide and the traffic is less the buses can be parked in the middle of the road. We are not here to prove that such parking causes inconvinience but we want to show that this is not the right method of parking. What is WRONG is WRONG whatever be the case. It doesnt mean that if you rob ur own house it is not robbery since its ur house. But it is wrong. Today its been done there later it may be expanded.
So we shoud join hands and protest for what is wrong instead of judging whether it is right or wrong.
@prakash :
Thanks for gesture!
Before posting this blog i talked to the head of the admin, TATA ELXSI (Mr. Suryaprakash), and had also mailed him once @ mail-id surya@tata...., but his response was never positive. But i hope to see some postive response now!!
Hi Gentleman!!!
How do you that all those "pics" u've boastfully posted is all true, and that they're not clicked when the buses have just arrived and is waiting 4 d employees 2 step down.
STOP braggin the SHIT all around!! Try 2 b a "responsible banglorean", and better concentrate on ur office work.
FYI: TEL (u might kno wht it is 'cuz u've been researchin on it too much)... has a decently big open space chosen as a parking lot, which happens to be right in front of the TEL Whitefield office.
BTW, gotta genuine doubt dude, U belong to the FBI,CIA, Mosad or sth???Prolly d ISI huh!?!
U've bloody called up the B'lore police (tht too in the dead night hours . by Indian timings), written to the [transcom@kar.nic.in], and also "talked" to the admin deptt of TEL, Fuckin gr8 speed man!!!! [its a megre 22hrs , u see!!!] :0 Outta which 12 hrs r just NOT workin hrs 4 ny non-BPO company, Did u call a BPO support instead?!?!
Huh...
I have to do what i dint want to ..
The comments will be moderated now on.. :-(

I had been wondering why Mosh is writing this way. Guess what .. i found it out ... just have a look at his profile and folloing is written in his profile :-)
""Mosh" tries to dump all the frustration that develops with the day-to-day life.Its just another way of living life, the alter ego way.. dumping all the hatered frustration, anger into the infinite public space is aimed at seeking some counselling, friendship, or "booing" maybe 'cuz that gives the "fire" to live, after all. This is all for my intellectual growing on any front philosophical,pscychological ...'n' whatever.I am still anticipating the corporate professionalism to take over me."
:-)
Well ...
Why am i worried ..!!
I should not be worried about ppl like MOSH. If i dont allow him on my blog, it would mean it's not a blog anymore ....
So i would rather think that ppl like MOSH writes and wise ppl :-) like us keep ignoring them.
Kool ... so NO moderation :-)
I am so happy

Well!! Well!! I really appreciate ur style of "Masking" ur hollow theories.Dude!!!
U kno wht?? U cud think of nothing but to get personal, just accept it. And thats what happens when u brag shits man!!
BUT, u cud never substantiate my questions!!!
Nyways!! Develop some corporate "GUTS" man!!! u're talkin on an "open space"... !! :) :)
Unnecesary Suggestion 4m a fellow blogger to another :
Start moderating comments on ur posts right away.
Fine.. now u cn delete my comment, cuz I kno it 200% well, tht u just DONT HAVE d "b***s" to let this comment dirty ur romanticied post..
I thought I was talkin 2 an intellectual!!! :( happens!!! :)
Bottom Line:
u cud never substantiate my questions!!!
nyways, I really salute ur WISEness ;)
m still seekin 4 answers to my questions :(, 'n' u kno wht I use this very road every other day, with no hassels @ all, man!! Now, do I have to get a poll 4 my experience too?
GIMME d ANSWERS, if at all u thing u're right, Mr. Wise :)
tell u a secret: Moderate the comments man!! U're on a wrong track nyway :)
oh...
You had a questions??
Hum .. .let me figuere-out.
Was it
Are you from ISI or CIA ....?
What a foolish question !!!
OK .... now i do understand that you are an intelligent person and i am not ... please asking questions which i wont answer.
-- Ravi
OMG!!! m so very sorry to have started messing up with a "kid", seems u still have to pass ur 10th grade....
Start preparing well for the unseen passages in d Eng paper, then u'll get the questions properly in d first place..
Good Luck
@MOSH :
Thanks a lot for your suggestions :-)
-- Ravi
Wow whow..
Use all these energy to demolish a bridge 'hanging' like the curse of techies...
Think 'remote' Dream 'boom'
he he he
got something? Grow up!
Ravi, a small request please? Cant we just ignore this gentleman called "mosh". I know the temptations in showing them their space, but at the end of the end, arguing with them is like wrestling with a pig.. Both get dirty, but the pig enjoys it...
He is just a attention seeking junkie... probably someone you will never notice otherwise...
Thanks Samik!
-- Ravi
Why all of u are messing up..
@Ravi.
Dude you were right to raise this issue. But i think the way you did by posting the photos was not right...
Anyways its fine to raise such issues which are concerned to bangalore.
@Mosh.
You are also very true bro.. If TEL is providing a parking lot in future, this is a very good thing..
Now you all stop messing up & behave like good professionals & ya of course good bangaloreans..
Take Care
Today i got response from Transport Commissioner 'transcom@kar.nic.in'
And the response looks like following
"subject Re: The traffic violation by TATA Elxsi buses
CT.EM.1120/2006-7
Dear Ravi,
Your email has been forwarded to Bangalore City Traffic Police for needful.
Joint Commissioner for Transport,
Vigilance & Pollution,
Bangalore
"
Ravi, I came here after Nisho gave me a pointer. Hey, few friends and myself have been thinking of forming a larger group of like minded people to do something about the road-jungle situation we have here in Bangalore. Ideas range from PIL to working actively with BCP (city police) to help them with useful feedback.
I met some like minded folks via my blog and Bangalore Metblogs. I am sure you have a circle of yours as well.
I can tell you more about it via email. I am silkboard on gmail dot com. Hope to connect with you soon!
