Bengaluru’s Pothole Pandemic: Why Are We Still Stuck? 🚦
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.
