In Bengaluru, the electricity is switched off by BESCOM frequently. Most of the time, this happens in the night - time. When the electricity is switched off, the street - lights also are switched off. As a result, streets are pitch dark where nobody can see anything. The BBMP and the BESCOM must install Solar Power Streetlights on all streets in the city as well LED Bulbs to ensure lighting throughout the night and longer life bulbs.

Without lights, people are vulnerable to vehicular accidents and muggings and to a certain extent attacks from stray dogs.
