Discussion Forum

The ABIDe Task Force has consulted domain experts and city agencies in putting together draft versions of its reports (and will create more such reports in the weeks ahead). However, we are confident that the people of this city can offer further creative and strong ideas that build upon the ones already developed, or even offer alternates that we have not considered at all. Your participation in discussions about the ABIDe reports is vital to developing the best possible road map for change. Please share your views on the ABIDe reports, as well as the related questions that appear in the discussion forums.

Transport
Sometimes, it seems the whole city is in gridlock. But together, we can unravel this tangle, and create an understandable and effective framework for urban mobility. From pedestrian safety to junction improvements to direction-based routing of BMTC buses, there is much to be talked about. There are also important choices to be made about infrastructure, so that we make the best use of the available resources, before deciding on new spending in these tough economic times.

Urban Poverty
Over 2 million people in namma Bengaluru need a helping hand from the city. In countless ways - including education, health and shelter - their experience of deprivation demands answers from us, and solutions that are effective in bridging their economic gaps. Can we put each child in school, can we ensure a minimum security of health for all in the city, can we provide a roof to every family? Let us put forth a wealth of ideas to defeat the poverty of our fellow citizens.

Governance
Bengaluru has grown rapidly in the last decade, both in population and now (with the expansion of the municipality) in size too. This expansion demands a new framework for public administration, which is flexible, coherent across agencies, and accountable to the public. A popularly elected mayor, dramatic restructuring of city agencies, decentralisation of governance - you'll find all this in the ABIDe report. Now it's your turn to tell us what you think of these, and more.

Public Security
The memories of serial bombs are still new, and there is a wide-spread fear that there may be more such attacks visited upon us. We will not yield to the threats of violence on innocent civilians - of this there is no doubt. Instead, we will prepare better for the threats of tomorrow, respond better to any sign of attack, and remain strong and united in our homes, offices and communities.
