"Is this the only news you have?" asked the Chief Minister of Karnataka when asked about the measures taken by the government.
Our ultimate aim is to bring a REAL CHANGE in the current situation. Yes, some promises been made. But there is no clarity on timelines, or how they are going to do it.
Can he be any more insensitive?
This,
and many such statements by our elected leaders, demonstrate their
attitude towards their electorate. Can we rely on them to
run our country? Can we rely on them to make the right policies and implement them?
All
of us stayed out of political process and are now paying the price for
it; we have to listen to such insensitive comments on a daily
basis from the so called democratically elected public
representatives. It is time, we put our energies together to bring
systemic
change. As you know I'm working with Loksatta which has a great track record of bringing reform and enacting strong laws, even
without having elected representatives in the legislature.

Eye wash measures, or some arrests just to keep public satisfied, are not acceptable.
With
help from eminent women Leaders of Loksatta, Bangalore, we are drafting
policy changes that will bring long lasting positive changes in our
system. For example, there must be a known "Sexual offenders list" that
is put in place and background verification MUST be done against that.
That would have saved the child from VIBGYOR.
Ever since my petition on change.org went viral, I've been inundated with calls, messages, media - I realized that there is a huge dearth of leadership
in
our society. Instead of waiting for some great leader to emerge, each
of us must be the LEADERS and fight for change. I am committing to this
cause and will not rest until systemic changes are realized. I'm
willing to go to every Minister, every Party, ever Legislator until we
get it done.
Will you support me? If yes, let's join together at Town Hall on Sunday 27th July at 11AM. Let's walk together to Freedom Park raising awareness
and sending a strong signal to our insensitive leaders that "YES, THIS IS THE ONLY ISSUE" and "IT MUST BE FIXED NOW"

Hi,
I am impressed by your initiative of raising voice for safe bangalore. Apart from safety issue, in bangalore we are facing severe water problem. Due to scarcity of water, only few people are taking advantage of situation. Can you connect me to some right people(like you) who wants to help in taking voice to Ministers to get some action.
