Held a press meet today to highlight why Bengaluru needs sustainable solutions that truly benefit the public, rather than the tunnel road project. We’ve suggested five key solutions: * Complete existing projects first, many are already delayed. * Move more people in less time at lower cost, instead of...

Have always advocated for lower fares in public transport systems so that more people can use the Metro and buses instead of taking out their private vehicles. However, the state government has made the Metro fares the most expensive in the country which incentivises people to commute in their car or two wheeler. Currently, about 10 lakh people travel by Metro and around 45 lakh people use BMTC buses in Bengaluru. Yet, instead of building better public transport solutions with a big outlay, the Congress government is out to build a car-only tunnel road totally costing about Rs 43,000 crore. Watch.

Bengaluru’s Tunnel Road: A Roadblock, Not a Relief. In this video, I break down why the ₹18,500 crore Tunnel Road is a bad idea which will worsen Bengaluru’s traffic. The DPR and Feasibility Reports are riddled with serious flaws - copy-pasted analysis, technical contradictions and recommendations pre-decided before real study. Further, the tunnel’s route overlaps with metro and suburban rail and the project has no green light from BMLTA - a statutory must. Instead of solving our traffic woes, the Tunnel Road project risks adding commute time, undermining existing & proposed Metro network, andchoking the city’s arterial roads. If we are serious about resolving Bengaluru's traffic crisis, we must invest in mass public transport - Metro, buses, last-mile options - not in mega-projects that repeat the city’s past mistakes. Let’s prioritize solutions that move people, not just cars. Bodh by Sharan Setty #SayNoToTunnelRoad

The Yellow Line Metro is a significant step towards Ease of Living, benefiting everyone from daily wage workers to IT engineers. I took the metro, alongside commuters who have long spent hours traveling in personal vehicles, highlighted the importance and impact of public transport in a city like Bengaluru. This line is a feather in the cap for Bengalureans, with many more to come. Let us work together towards PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji’s vision of Accessibility and Ease of Living, and continue the movement towards public transport, fulfilling the aspiration of having a metro station within walking distance from every home. This video captures that first journey in the Yellow Line and how Bengaluru has received it. ನಮ್ಮ ಮೆಟ್ರೋ

Met with DCM Shri DK Shivakumar today to discuss alternatives to the Tunnel Road Project. Expressed our opposition to the project, as it is not a sustainable solution and would not effectively address Bengaluru’s traffic congestion. An 18 km car-centric road is an impractical and unfeasible idea that would only worsen congestion and harm the environment. Urged a shift in focus towards Mass Rapid Transit Systems to truly decongest Bengaluru. Suggested a comprehensive vision with: - A 300 km Metro Rail network (3-min frequency) - ⁠314 km of Suburban Rail - ⁠Modern trams for short-distance commutes This rail-based backbone can help shift over 70% of commuters from roads to rail. Also proposed adding 5,000 BMTC buses, introducing BRTS on ORR, strengthening BMLTA with a full-time Chairman, and launching a mission-mode program to repair and standardize roads and footpaths for a walkable Bengaluru. Recommended a Special War Room to ensure timely Metro completion. Will continue to oppose the impractical, car-only Tunnel Road. A bipartisan approach is essential to solving Bengaluru’s mobility challenges in the city’s long-term interest.

Let's build Namma Bengaluru with a Grand vision. * A city that has implemented effective zoning laws where people have access to their workplaces, schools, hospitals, parks and other amenities within a 30 minute radius. * An expansive Metro network of over 317 km with a frequency of 3 minutes. * Buses of all sizes integrated with metro timings. * A suburban rail network, which will ensure that with all these public transport services, 70% of Bengaluru’s population can commute on public transit easily and smoothly. Bengaluru must be built for its citizens, not for contractors or cars. Watch.

Bengaluru is being strangled by a corrupt government that refuses to govern. The traffic crisis is worsening by the day, and the core reason is staring us in the face: the explosion of private vehicles. But instead of addressing this, the state government is fuelling it. Instead of building mass public transport, it has launched a war against it. At a time when every rupee of public money should be invested in making public transport more available, more affordable and more reliable, this government has done the opposite. It is punishing those who rely on public transport and actively incentivising more car and two-wheeler ownership. The state wants to spend ₹1 lakh crore to build 100 kilometres of new flyovers and 18 kilometres of tunnel roads - a gift wrapped package for the politician-contractor lobby. But here’s the punchline: more than 20 flyovers have been pending for close to eight years, lying incomplete across the city. Before even completing what it has already failed, the government wants to throw billions more at the same failure. This isn’t infrastructure building. This is an addiction to kickback-paying contracts. The ₹18,000 crore tunnel road is the peak of this madness — a vanity project that benefits only private cars while being a death sentence for the city’s public transport system. It will not serve the pedestrian, the cyclist, the commuter - it will serve only the cars, the SUVs. It won’t serve the common guy who uses the BMTC or the metro. While the government wants to build more roads, it is killing last mile connectivity. Carpooling, bike-sharing, and auto-sharing remain unsupported. It refuses to allow private players to run buses alongside BMTC, despite the overwhelming demand. Metro fares are being hiked unscientifically, pushing people away from mass transit instead of into it. Meanwhile, ridership in Metro is weakening. And the result? The roads are flooded with cars. A recent study by Bengaluru Traffic Police on Outer Ring Road found a 20% increase in vehicle numbers in just one year, resulting in a 125% increase in congestion. This is not sustainable. This will lead to a total collapse of the city. Every delay in Metro completion brings more cars onto the streets. Every step taken to weaken the bus system brings more two-wheelers into the chaos. Bengaluru already has more private vehicles than people. No other global city in our population bracket has done this because no other city has such a suicidal mobility policy. Let’s be clear: this government’s mobility policy is not citizen-centric. It is contractor-centric. It is not about moving people - it is about moving cars. This is a government in the grip of a politician-bureaucrat-contractor nexus, that would rather pour concrete than build a city that works. And who is paying the price? The nurse who takes the bus. The student who walks to the Metro. The delivery rider stuck in traffic. The poor and middle class of Bengaluru, who don’t own cars, but are cross-subsidising roads that are built exclusively for car owners. This is not just poor governance. It is structural injustice. This assault on Bengaluru must stop. Every rupee of public money must be redirected to public transport. That is the only globally proven solution to decongestion and cities with denser populations than ours have done it. What’s missing here is not technology or funds. What’s missing is political will. And that will won’t come from those in power. It must come from the people of Bengaluru. From those who are stuck in traffic and fed up of being lied to. From those who are tired of vanity projects and demand real mobility solutions. From a new generation of leadership that fights for commuters, not contractors. Bengaluru is choking. We can either demand change - or let this city be buried under its own traffic. Let’s tell loud and clear - Public Transport is our Fundamental Right. We need our government to provide it. My remarks at the World Symposium on Sustainability & Livability hosted by IISc Bangalore.

Shakti Scheme Misused? Arrogance on a BMTC Bus Sparks Public Anger What can be said about this kind of arrogance? Is this really how a person is supposed to behave while using public transport? Government buses are meant for the public, not someone’s personal property or private space. Such behaviour is completely unacceptable in a public setting where passengers from all walks of life travel every day. This is not the right way to conduct oneself, especially in a public transport system that operates for the benefit and convenience of the common people. Basic discipline, responsibility, and respect are expected, and this kind of behaviour clearly does not reflect that. Throwing tickets and arguing with the conductor and other passengers is not tolerated in public places. #bangalore #bengaluru #bmtc #ksrtc BMTC ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ನಗರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್‌ BengaluruCityPolice ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ಸಂಚಾರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ BengaluruTrafficPolice CP Bengaluru ಪೊಲೀಸ್ ಆಯುಕ್ತ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು Joint CP, Traffic, Bengaluru alok kumar DGP KARNATAKA ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ ರಾಜ್ಯ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ Karnataka State Police S.

Rail-based public transport is the only solution to ease Bengaluru's traffic mess - Key to this is the proposed suburban railway network. The Greater Tokyo Area, with a vast suburban network, transports over lakhs of people daily. Here, despite complete support from the Centre, Congress government has stalled and almost killed the BSRP. All Congress Govt thinks about is an 18 km tunnel road, presuming that it is a magic bullet that will immediately reduce traffic congestion in Bengaluru.

The ₹18,500 Cr Tunnel Road is a deadweight on Bengaluru, designed not for the common man, but for the elite 10% who own private cars. What the city actually needs: - 16,580 BMTC buses by 2031. We have just 6,800. - 317 km Metro by 2031. Only 78 km operational today. Yellow Line has been ready for 4 years, still unopened. Over 20 stalled flyover and road projects. Instead of fixing these gaps, CM Siddaramaiah & DCM DK Shivakumar are pushing a vanity project that serves the few, not the many. #SayNoToTunnelRoad

The average daily ridership of Bengaluru Metro is 10 lakh, mainly the common public, students and employees from the IT and BT sectors. When the ನಮ್ಮ ಮೆಟ್ರೋ increased metro fares, it made Bengaluru Metro the most expensive in the country. In contrast, Miley Ray Cyrus’s fare hikes have been reasonable and affordable, with a maximum increase of only ₹4. A common metro user, traveling more than 25 km from his residence to work has to shell out almost Rs 90 per journey, excluding additional costs for first and last-mile connectivity. This unfortunate situation is discouraging the adoption of public transport & incentivising private vehicles. But on what basis was this hike implemented? Despite taking a stand before the Hon'ble High Court that the Fare Fixation Committee (FFC) report would be made public, BMRCL has failed to do so. I once again urge both the state govt and BMRCL to release the FFC report forthwith. Public interest is paramount.

Around 5.7 lakh people use Metro in Bengaluru everyday. Around 50-60% of this number are set to benefit if Byappanahalli - KR Pura stretch opens. It will also attract new users. However, State Govt is not opening the stretch for public use, despite all clearances from CMRS. They are waiting for Rahul Gandhi to give time for this inauguration, while thousands are waiting helplessly. Lakhs of people get down at SV Road or Byappanahalli and continue their journey to their workplace in the morning. In the evening they catch a bus, auto, cab and reach Byappanahalli and then walk long distances to change Metro. This is a long and frustrating travel that is killing productivity and takes a toll on mental health. The project is already late by 2 years. Without a single day additional delay we must open this line. People of Bengaluru can’t wait endlessly for Rahul Gandhi to make time to open this. I demand CM & DCM to open this stretch for public use immediately. They can do the official inauguration whenever Rahul Gandhi make their calendar free.

#WATCH | Bengaluru, Karnataka | BJP MP Tejasvi Surya says, "The Central Government has sanctioned 4,500 electric buses for Bengaluru. However, the State Government has not given the cabinet approval necessary for the deployment of these 4,500 buses...For this government, which has money and resources for VIP projects, such as 1,300-kilometre tunnel roads, 2-kilometre tunnel roads exclusively for cars, public transport and its users are treated as second-class citizens. For them, the person who travels by metro is not a priority. The woman who travels daily by BMTC bus is not a priority. The pedestrian who needs a skywalk, footpath, or proper walkway is not a priority. This is a VIP government that comes up with white-elephant projects so that large kickbacks can be taken, nothing else..."

During my meeting with DCM DK Shivakumar on proposals to Decongest Bengaluru, have also suggested starting bus services on Priority Lanes on the Outer Ring Road (ORR) between KR Pura Metro Station on Namma Metro's Purple Line and Silk Board on Yellow Line. Additionally, tram services along the ORR can be explored with minimal funding. Trams like those in Tokyo, Sydney and Amsterdam are a practical solution for improving public transport. They don’t require flyovers, tunnels or new stations and a single lane can carry 12,000-15,000 passengers per hour. Hope the State Govt acts.

Bengaluru's traffic problem needs urgent short and long term solutions. A well-connected Metro network will play a pivotal role in easing Bengaluru's traffic problem. But whether it's the Phase 1 or the Yellow Line, BMRCL has never been able to meet its deadlines in any project it has taken up. We are everyday seeing people struggle for some breathing space in Bengaluru's overcrowded metro trains. From addressing delays in procurement of coaches to speeding up the execution of projects, BMRCL has a lot of catching up to do. But the city cannot wait. Leaving party politics aside, I once again urge CM Siddaramaiah & DCM DK Shivakumar to urgently convene a meeting of public representatives & traffic experts to explore solutions for Decongesting Bengaluru.

Who am I to question the Tunnel Road project? asks DCM. Sir, I am a common Kannadiga. A Bengaluru boy who loves our city. A common man who is suffering in traffic everyday. As a Bengalurean and with deep concern for the city's future, I would urge the DCM to consult experts and transport planners before making a decision on the tunnel road, ensuring that it serves the best interests of the city. Many citizens of Bengaluru are expressing their opposition to this proposal, and the DCM asks what authority they have oppose. Let me remind - we are taxpaying citizens. Bengaluru belongs to us all. Bengaluru, once built by visionary leaders, is now facing challenges due to poor planning, and it is our collective responsibility to safeguard its future. The DCM says he wants to leave a legacy for Bengaluru. Request him to build a Bengaluru accessible to even a comman man and projects which are feasible and needed for the city.

Even road-based public transport systems like buses are under a state of neglect under this Congress Govt. Despite moving the most number of the people in the city, BMTC remains an underfunded & neglected organisation. In the previous Congress Govt, an Inter-Ministerial Committee had recommended amendments to the Motor Vehicles Act to allow private players to run small buses and complement the BMTC. But this suggestion also is being ignored even as BMTC struggles to cater to regular & feeder services demand. In my meeting with DCM DK Shivakumar, I urged him to increase BMTC's fleet size to at least 15,000 buses and ensure a feeder service once every 5 minutes in coherence with the metro timings. The State Government needs to act.

Delhi is moving ahead with a renewed pace of development. Under the leadership of Transport Minister Dr. Pankaj Kumar Singh, the expansion of the Delhi Metro network is progressing rapidly, giving a new direction to connectivity and public transport in the capital. Under Metro Phase-IV, two important corridors are being developed — Majlis Park to Maujpur Babarpur (about 12.3 km with 8 new stations) and Deepali Chowk to Majlis Park (around 9.92 km with 7 new stations). These projects will significantly strengthen the metro network and make travel easier for thousands of daily commuters. Along with this, under Metro Phase-V (A), work is also moving forward on new corridors such as RK Ashram Marg – Indraprastha, Aerocity – IGD Terminal-1, and Tughlakabad – Kalindi Kunj. These projects will provide faster, safer and more comfortable travel while also helping reduce traffic congestion and pollution in the capital. Under the leadership of Dr. Pankaj Kumar Singh, Delhi continues to move steadily towards a modern, efficient and stronger public transport system.

Under the leadership of Transport Minister Dr. Pankaj Kumar Singh, the expansion of the Delhi Metro network is progressing rapidly, giving a new direction to connectivity and public transport in the capital. Under Metro Phase-IV, two important corridors are being developed — Majlis Park to Maujpur Babarpur (about 12.3 km with 8 new stations) and Deepali Chowk to Majlis Park (around 9.92 km with 7 new stations). These projects will significantly strengthen the metro network and make travel easier for thousands of daily commuters. Along with this, under Metro Phase-V (A), work is also moving forward on new corridors such as RK Ashram Marg – Indraprastha, Aerocity – IGD Terminal-1, and Tughlakabad – Kalindi Kunj. These projects will provide faster, safer and more comfortable travel while also helping reduce traffic congestion and pollution in the capital. Under the leadership of Dr. Pankaj Kumar Singh, Delhi continues to move steadily towards a modern, efficient and stronger public transport system.
