If short flyovers don’t work, how exactly will a short tunnel work? Bengaluru Development Minister Shri Krishna Byre Gowda himself admitted that short flyovers only move congestion from one junction to another as seen at Silk Board to Ragigudda. So why is the State Government spending ₹1,139 crore of... show more

BBMP has paid ₹9.5 crore of public money to a shady consultant to do a Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V DPR job. Consider this - - The feasibility report, which was authored to provide traffic solutions after January 2024, contains traffic survey images done in Aug 2023. - A traffic junction photo from 2019 appears in a 2025 report. - And unbelievably, the same DPR mentions Malegaon and Nashik in Maharashtra while analysing the traffic volume of certain corridors in Bengaluru. This is not urban planning. This is blatant corruption, a cut-copy-paste scam meant to loot taxpayers in the name of the ₹18,500 Cr Tunnel Road project. Bengaluru deserves better. #SayNoToTunnelRoad

Minister Krishna Byre Gowda has exposed the truth behind DK Shivakumar’s hyped "Brand Bengaluru," calling it a "failed model.” The admission during a recent meeting that the Government has failed to provide even basic infrastructure to Bengaluru over the past three years is a glaring proof of Karnataka Congress's absolute failure. Krishna Byre Gowda, who is fuming over not being given the entire Bengaluru Urban Development portfolio (that is BDA and BMRDA), is exposing the Congress Government's deceptions day by day. Karnataka Congress remains synonymous with internal factionalism. True progress for Kannadigas will remain a distant dream as long as this administration is in power. #CongressFailsKarnataka

Bengaluru Development Minister Krishna Byre Gowda on Thursday announced a special grant of Rs 2,000 crore for upgrading damaged ward roads across five city corporations under Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA). Officials have been directed to identify poor roads, prepare estimates, float short-term tenders and begin work immediately, with a target to complete projects within four to six months. The minister also reviewed Bengaluru’s garbage crisis, directing officials to strictly enforce door-to-door waste collection, mandatory wet-dry waste segregation, GPS tracking of garbage vehicles, and stronger action against littering. A special drive will clear roadside garbage, debris and weeds. He said visible improvements in waste management should be achieved within three to four months through better implementation of the existing system and greater citizen participation Greater Bengaluru Authority Maheshwar Rao.M, IAS

This Sunday morning, I ran an easy 8K on the unopened Ragigudda flyover in Jayanagar. Ironically, the only good to come out of BMRCL and BBMP’s delay is that this half-complete flyover has become a popular running, cycling, and skating track. Every morning, you’ll find hundreds of kids skating, people practising yoga, and walkers enjoying traffic-free peace. It’s a powerful reminder that citizens will embrace public spaces if they’re made available for active mobility - and if cars are kept out. Across the world, successful cities prioritise people over motor vehicles. Bengaluru, with its year-round mild climate, is uniquely positioned to do this. It may be the only Indian city where walking and cycling can thrive naturally. Instead of wasting resources on more flyovers and tunnel roads, the state government must invest in public transport and reclaim urban spaces for people. A less polluted, more liveable, and happier Bengaluru is not just possible - it’s waiting. Siddaramaiah DK Shivakumar

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 Scam is not a mobility solution, it's a world-class corruption project by the Congress Govt in the state led by CM Siddaramaiah & DCM DK Shivakumar. It aims to serve the 10% car owning elite while burdening 90% of taxpayers who await better public transport. Here’s why: 1. Built for cars, not the city As per IISc data: - Tunnel (cars only): 600-1600 people/hour - Tunnel (with 2Ws): 7,500 people/hour - Metro (same corridor): 25,000 people/hour Yet, the govt wants to spend taxpayer money on a project for less than 10% who own private cars. This is perhaps only going to benefit the crorepatis of Sadashivnagar & Koramangala 4th block & not the common man. 2. BBMP's ₹9.5 Cr Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V DPR job BBMP paid a hefty sum of public money to allegedly debarred consultants for a bogus feasibility report. Some blatant irregularities in their reports - - Feasibility report created after Jan 2024, uses traffic survey images from Aug 2023 - Traffic junction photo from 2019 appears in a 2024 report. - Even worse, the reports refer to Malegaon-Nashik in Maharashtra while analyzing Bengaluru's traffic! This isn't planning, it's daylight robbery. It's a Rs 9.5 Cr fraud paid for with hard earned taxpayers money. 3. India’s most expensive road per km. If executed, the ₹18,500 crore Tunnel Road will be the most expensive road per kilometre in the world. Will they build it with golden bricks? Why this vanity White Elephant? For perspective: - Bengaluru–Mysuru Expressway: ₹8,500 Cr for 119 km (6 lanes) - Atal Tunnel: ₹3,000 Cr for 9 km through the Himalayas - Mumbai Coastal Road: ₹13,000 Cr for 29.2 km with undersea tunnel - Kerala Coastal Highway: ₹6,500 Cr for 625 km with multiple tunnels - KR Puram–Silk Board Metro: ₹5,500 Cr for 18 km with 13 stations Congress wants ₹18,500 Cr for just 18 km, only for cars. Bengaluru’s future is being mortgaged for a vanity project that serves contractors, not its citizens. We will oppose this scam in the streets, in the courts, and in the Vidhana Soudha & Parliament. Bengaluru & Bengalureans deserve better! #SayNoToTunnelRoads

This was the massive rush witnessed at Nandi Hills, Bengaluru, on Sunday. A traffic jam stretching nearly 8 km was reported on the route, with thousands of visitors heading to the popular weekend destination. Vehicles were seen crawling for hours as the heavy influx of tourists led to severe congestion. This is what real traffic looks like long queues of vehicles, packed roads, and significant delays. The overwhelming crowd highlights the growing popularity of Nandi Hills as a weekend getaway, but it also raises concerns about traffic management and infrastructure during peak tourist days. Visitors planning a trip should be prepared for long waiting times, especially on weekends and holidays. #bangalore #bengaluru #nandihills 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.

Why Build Tunnel Roads When Bengaluru Itself is a Giant Pothole?" Wow, what an incredible sight we witnessed recently in Namma Bengaluru a BMTC bus majestically sailing through a waterlogged road like it was part of some luxury cruise line. Who needs Venice when you have Bengaluru’s very own “Water Metro,” right? Maybe this is the true essence of “Brand Bengaluru” turning roads into rivers and buses into boats. Hats off to the government for such visionary urban planning! Should we now start calling our daily commute a water adventure? Or maybe DK Shivakumar will announce a new “Swim to Work” scheme soon? If this is the level of planning we can expect, then citizens should probably start investing in kayaks instead of cars. And now we hear talks about a tunnel road how exciting! Because clearly, if we can’t maintain the roads above the ground, the next logical step is to dig under and create a swimming pool experience below as well. Will the tunnel road come with free scuba gear? Or will it be part of the next wave of government freebies right after the mixer grinders and pressure cookers? It’s amazing how our tax money flows just like rainwater on our streets nowhere useful. Drainage? Maintenance? Planning? Accountability? Oh no, those are outdated concepts. What we get instead are ribbon-cuttings, press conferences, and lovely photoshoots of leaders pretending everything is under control, while citizens literally wade through the mess. Dear DK Shivakumar and team, we salute your unmatched ability to turn every rain into a PR disaster. If incompetence were an Olympic sport, Bengaluru’s civic management would be bringing home gold medals year after year. So let’s all raise a toast or maybe a life jacket to the glorious future of Bengaluru. Where infrastructure collapses, but the PR machinery stands strong. Where roads disappear, but promises flood our ears. Bravo, government. Truly, well done. #bangalore #bengaluru #bangalorerains #bengalururains #bmtc BMTC Ramalinga Reddy 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 ChristinMathewPhilip

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.

Karnataka Revenue Minister Krishna Byre Gowda strongly came down on his own government machinery and the contractor during an inspection of the ongoing Metro Phase 2B project from Nagawara to Bagalur Cross on Sunday, openly expressing his frustration over prolonged delays, poor execution, and the hardships being imposed on the public.During the inspection, the minister pulled up Metro officials and contractors for incomplete pillars, blocked roads, and footpaths filled with construction debris, which have severely affected traffic flow and pedestrian movement. He ordered the immediate clearance of waste, removal of unnecessary roadblocks, and directed officials to speed up construction work to reduce inconvenience to commuters and residents.Byre Gowda expressed shock that Metro pillars at some locations have remained incomplete for nearly two years. Questioning the lack of accountability and planning, he asked officials why a stretch of road had been shut for over a year with little visible progress. “You shut this stretch a year ago. What have you been doing all this time? Does it take one year just to complete a pile cap? Now you are saying in two months you will do magic. Where is the pillar? I can’t even see it,” he remarked sharply, taking a direct dig at the contractor.He also criticised the irrational blocking of roads, pointing out that construction activity at one location was causing road closures and traffic chaos elsewhere. “If work is happening at Hebbal, then block Hebbal. Why are you closing roads here and troubling people unnecessarily?” he asked, highlighting the lack of coordination and sensitivity towards public suffering.The minister further flagged the pathetic condition of footpaths and service roads, which were clogged with debris and construction waste, making movement extremely difficult and unsafe for pedestrians and motorists. He directed officials to clear the debris immediately and restore access for the public. Acting on his instructions, officials cleared the waste on the spot in his presence. Raising serious concerns over worsening traffic congestion in North Bengaluru, Byre Gowda pointed out that several roads had been blocked without justification, leading to daily traffic snarls and long delays for commuters. He instructed officials to remove avoidable barricades without delay and ensure smoother vehicular movement.Criticising the authorities for testing public patience, the minister stressed that prolonged and poorly managed construction work was unfairly burdening citizens who have been enduring inconvenience for years. He warned officials that delays, lack of planning, and casual execution would not be tolerated any longer, and called for strict accountability and better coordination to ensure Metro works are completed at the earliest. He подчеркed that development cannot come at the cost of endless suffering for the public, and authorities must respect the patience and time of Bengalureans #bangalore #bengaluru #bagalur #yelahanka Krishna Byre Gowda ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ನಗರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್‌ BengaluruCityPolice ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ಸಂಚಾರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ BengaluruTrafficPolice alok kumar DGP KARNATAKA ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ ರಾಜ್ಯ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ Karnataka State Police S.

If every taxpayer can be tracked for every rupee he owes the government, why can’t the government show taxpayers where every rupee spent on roads has gone? The Government has admitted at various points that nearly ₹5,500 crore has been spent on Bengaluru’s roads. Citizens have a right to know where this money has gone and what outcomes it has delivered. My demand is simple. Within the next 30 days, the Government must launch a publicly accessible live dashboard for all road infrastructure works in Bengaluru. Every citizen should be able to see: • Which road is being worked on • The cost of the project • The contractor executing it • The officer responsible • The timeline for completion • The maintenance period • The defect liability period • The real-time status of the work This is not a difficult reform. Bengaluru is India’s technology capital. Hundreds of technology professionals would gladly volunteer their expertise to help build such a platform. Transparency creates accountability. Accountability improves quality. Quality builds public trust. ₹5,500 crore later, Bengaluru deserves answers. Build the dashboard. Put every road work online. Let citizens see where their money is going. Krishna Byre Gowda

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.

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.

Tunnel Road will be a disaster for Bengaluru. 6 acres are earmarked for acquisition but the people of Bengaluru will not let even 6 inches of Lalbagh to be taken. During my visit to Lalbagh yesterday, GBA officials refused to accompany us to show the proposed tunnel route under the Lalbagh Rock. Even more alarming was the revelation that a commercial complex is planned at the shaft location within Lalbagh. Along with citizen experts and walkers, I witnessed the potential negative impact this tunnel project could have on the city. It threatens our historical landmarks and fragile ecological balance. The state government’s decision to take over land for a tunnel road that is unscientific, unnecessary, unsafe and unlawful is deeply concerning. Watch.

Watch my full talk at the Mobility Symposium 2025, where I share 5 recommendations that can enhance urban mobility. 1) Our mobility policies must focus on moving people, not vehicles, with greater emphasis on rail-based public transport. 2) India needs a National Mission for Urban Road Renewal to strengthen footpaths, standardise roads and improve urban infrastructure across all cities. 3) In Bengaluru, BMLTA, as a technical body, must take the lead in coordinating between parastatals to ensure better planning, integration & execution of city infrastructure projects. 4) India needs a dedicated Urban Transport and Urban Planning Cadre to bring professionalism, design consistency and long-term policy continuity. 5) Municipal elections in cities like Bengaluru must be conducted at the earliest to ensure local accountability and responsive governance.
