Bengaluru (erstwhile Bangalore), the capital of Karnataka, has a history of over four hundred years, having been founded by Magadi Kempegowda in the year 1537 AD. With its strategic location as well as congenial climate, fertile land & adequate rainfall has grown steadily in its area.

The history of municipal governance of Bangalore dates back to 1862, when nine leading citizens of the city formed a Municipal Board under the Improvement of Towns Act of 1850. Later, a similar Municipal Board was also formed in the Cantonment area of the city. The two boards were legalised in 1881, and functioned as two independent bodies called the Bangalore City Municipality and the Bangalore Civil and Military Station Municipality.

Post-Independence, the two Municipal Boards were merged to form the Corporation of the City of Bangalore in 1949. In January 2007, the Karnataka Government issued a notification to merge 100 wards of the erstwhile Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BMP) with seven City Municipal Council (CMCs’), one Town Municipal Council (CMC) and 111 villages around the city to form a single administrative area and the body was renamed 'Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike' (BBMP) in 2007.

Here are three options put forward for consideration for area development.

Kindly post your views and preference on the options provided for Smart city Proposal preparation by 25th June, 2016.

HOUSING FOR ALL through the process of urban Renewal,that would generate zero cost housing. The redevelopment would be as per relevant bylaws, but will generate additional public & semi-public open spaces and public housing. Public Housing would be Development Authority’s Share for inclusion of internal roads in the gross development area.
Refer Chapter 7 to 9 "The Future of Housing Regeneration – Technology, Form and Function Context of Bangalore India" attached herewith.

To make Bengaluru a smart city, there should be measures taken to set the mentality of people right, people have gone into comfort zones, they are least bothered about the city, apply strict rules and address the corruption at government offices because till date government offices are worst places to step in, so that people start feeling their responsibility. address these 4 topics to make city smart
1. Garbage 2. Water 3. Electricity & 4. Roads and infrastructure.

VIRTUAL HEALTH CITY - Bangalore has the potential to become a virtual HEALTHCITY by interconnection of existing facilities, service, stake holders, products, sub products and unit level system into a HEALTHCITY Platform. This HEALTHCITY Platform will be anchored by an existing MEDICAL UNIVERSITY or greenfield AIIMS like apex healthcare unit of the city. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/smart-city-proposal-bangalore-virtual-health-anirban-choudhury?trk=pulse_spock-articles

Be it Bangalore or any other city, one of the major problems is traffic. I would request you to kindly make LEFT FREE AT ALL JUNCTIONS (MAJOR OR MINOR) and automatically the traffic block become less and less.

electricity is shown as surplus in the app given by government. Reality is far from it. so many times power goes in a day. It makes working for the people tough. Any solution for this?? What can this government do to correct it

15 min rain is more than enough in the evening to make people spend most of the time on road back home. Think about people wasting so much time not spending with anyone. Infrastructure needs a drastic improvement.

We need a responsive civic, police officials and local councillors and MLAs. There are enough apps and social networking sites through which citizens log issues, but rarely do they get a response or the problem gets addressed. instead, these officials and politicians should be continuously monitoring their wards, identify problems and take steps to solve them. The blame game between the agencies need to stop. Getting documentation is also a cumbersome process.
