BENGALURU, July 31, 2025:
Dr. D. Kiran Jeevan, a professor of social work and an active voice in public policy and civic reform, met the Hon’ble Governor of Karnataka today at Raj Bhavan to raise alarm over the worsening condition of Bengaluru’s infrastructure. The meeting, held at 11:00 a.m., centered on the urgent need for state intervention, particularly regarding the city’s damaged roads and their growing impact on public health and safety.
In a formal letter submitted during the meeting, Dr. Jeevan highlighted concerns received from more than 1,000 residents who reported injuries, spinal issues, and mental stress due to the city’s pothole-ridden streets. “This isn’t just about roads—it’s about health, dignity, and the daily lives of Bengalureans,” he stated.
Expressing his motivation behind the initiative, Dr. Jeevan said, “Bengaluru is not merely a place—it’s an inseparable part of my identity. Our systems aren’t broken—they’re simply waiting to be revived. I approach this not with criticism, but with hope—hope that our city can once again set the standard for smart, inclusive urban development.”
The Governor reportedly responded with empathy and assured Dr. Jeevan that his memorandum and suggestions would be forwarded to the Government of Karnataka for necessary action.
Reaffirming his dedication to constructive civic engagement, Dr. Jeevan emphasized the need for collaboration and systemic reform. He thanked the Governor for his time, concern, and willingness to support the cause of improving the city’s infrastructure.
