Six agencies decide to coordinate to deliver quality governance to Bengaluru’s citizensWith an eye on giving the best civic infrastructure to the tax payer in Bengaluru, at least six different agencies including Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (), Defence and(SWR) have planned to work together in a coordinated manner.Such an effort has taken five years to be achieved. Top officials of different departments met on Monday to decide to cooperate with each other on developing city’s civic projects. The agencies that are involved in this plan are BBMP, Defence, SWR, Bangalore Water Supply & Sewerage Board (BWSSB), Bangalore Electricity Supply Company (Bescom)/Karnataka Power Transmission Corporation Limited (), Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) and Bangalore Development Authority ().This could happen becausedirected theto take up such an initiative.Bhaskar told Bangalore Mirror, “All the stake holders have decided to join hands after CM directed us to work together. Coordination is necessary with all the departments to see that there is no clash amongst ourselves. We are also trying to solve the garbage and debris issues with the other departments and also decisions have been taken to solve the land acquisition matter with the departments like railways and defence personnel.”This initiative could have been taken up by the then JD(S)-BJP coalition government which had formed the BBMP. But the then commissioner was coordinating with the department heads to solve the issues on their own. The exercise was stopped in 2010 after BJP-led elected body came to power in the BBMP and ruled for five years.Now keeping an eye on the upcoming elections the chief minister has directed all the department heads to come under one umbrella.However, a coordinated effort among these different agencies is going to be no easy task. Therefore, they have systematically laid out various projects that would need to be taken up in a coordinated manner.Some of these projects are shown here.Handing over of areas near Metro for construction of multilevel car parking spaces near Ulsoor, MG Road and other places »Stoppage of dumping construction debris in between metro piers. »Deposit of 50 per cent share (nearly Rs 17 crore) for the upgrade works on footpaths in the metro corridors. »Strengthening and asphalting need to be done on RV Road from Lalbagh to South End Circle. »Restoration to be done to road cut from Kanakapura road Konanakunte cross to Avalahalli KPTCL office.New storm water drain to be constructed below Domlur flyover »Formation of road from Ejipura inner ring road to Sarjapura road as per master plan-2015 »BDA to take up pending works in 62 km stretch outer ring road and the hand it over to the BBMP for maintenance.* Construction of 8-lane corridor near Okalipuram Junction and Fountain Circle * Construction of four-lane divided bi-directional flyover along outer ring road at Kittur Rani Chennamma Circle * Rajajinagar 10th cross flyover project* BESCOM: BBMP has deposited Rs 124.62 lakh to BESCOM for 11 KV line on December 20, 2012.
