From endless traffic jams to potholes that reappear days after repair, Bengaluru’s civic issues are a daily struggle for millions. But why does this keep happening despite changing governments and big promises?

In this eye-opening discussion, SALAR NEWS speaks with Mithilesh Kumar from the Civic Opposition of India to decode the root causes of the city's crumbling infrastructure. We move beyond the complaints to understand the systemic failures—from the lack of coordination between agencies to the absence of quality control.

The video also tackles the debate on "big ticket" projects like tunnel roads versus the desperate need for basic amenities like walkable footpaths and proper drainage. Most importantly, it highlights the one missing ingredient in solving these problems: active citizen participation.

It is a statement that has sparked a nationwide infrastructure debate. Indian astronaut Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla, who has traveled to the International Space Station, recently remarked that reaching space was easier than navigating Bengaluru's traffic from Marathahalli. Civic Opposition of India, seized on this moment to highlight the gravity of the situation:

"You can reach space faster than you can reach Tumkur Road from Marathahalli! The irony is that while we aim for the stars, our ground reality is stuck in gridlock."

They question why political urgency is missing when even astronauts find our roads more challenging than zero-gravity missions. It is time for the government to fix the basics before claiming "Global City" status FT Article #BengaluruTraffic #ShubhanshuShukla #CivicOpposition #UrbanMobility #InfrastructureDebate #Bangalore
