Yesterday was a protest day. For people who stay in and around Whitefield, or work in Whitefield this was an important day.
From 10:30 AM to 1 PM people came on the roads, peacefully standing on the roads with posters.
Whitefield is the largest tax generating area of Bangalore and it has the worst roads.
People were told to dress in Black and stand around. I had given my support by signing up for the online campaign. Due to work pressures, I was not on the road.
The posters had slogans like SAVE WHITEFIELD and ROADS ARE OUR LIFELINE, SAVE THEM.
About 3000 people joined the protest yesterday.
The rains in Bangalore played havoc with the roads. It showed the kind of roads that had been constructed by BBMC.
Everyday when I go home, its like a drive on a backward village road. Broken roads, potholes, dust, mud and to add to that, traffic.
