Why should u write specific columns only about Karnataka/Bangalore ? Just bcoz more no. of people get interested, more debates on the discussion board and lot of people click ur links... this increasing no. of hits in the website ? Cheap strategy.
Accidents happen in every city. Does Rediff have comparative numbers for all the cities ? Useless and jobless reporters.

Raghu your points though passionate and true contradict themselves.
Why should u write specific columns only about Karnataka/Bangalore ? Just bcoz more no. of people get interested, more debates on the discussion board and lot of people click ur links... this increasing no. of hits in the website ? -> This way, Rediff is heading for closure soon.
If they are catering to the consumer they will get what they want. Throw Journalistic integrity out of the window. Today its all about numbers in every profession. By hook or crook give me success. Damn even research labs all over the world are working on that philosophy. Forget rediff, its really embarassing when a company that was as innovative as IBM was, shuns invention for implementation.

Are you crazy? Accidents have ruined families, and almost every family has one loss to recall, or one major injury that changes course of lives. In no other part of the world does avoidable accidents play such fatal part of life. For all the so called educated "Silicon Valley of India" residents, they sure cannot follow traffic rules and sure cannot cope with the burgeoning number of vehicles. It's a genuine situation, and requires genuine attention and care. Your false pride will not change the tag Bangalore already has, of a failing city. I am from Bangalore, and I have friends and family members that are either gone or have suffered unbearable losses due to vehicular accidents.
