 HSR Layout Residents Association, 2nd Sector met for the Annual General Body Meeting for nearly three hours on June 6th at New Extension Cambridge Public School. The first part was a review of the activities of the association during the preceding year. The second part was the interaction of residents with the civic officials from BBMP, BDA, BWSSB, BMTC, and Police department. We had requested these organisations to depute senior officials and engineers to interact with residents and give suitable responses to the queries.
Unfortunately barring a few, civic agencies were represented by junior staff who showed helplessness in answering our queries. KPTCL and BESCOM representatives were absent; we were most disappointed. The local corporator Latha Narasimhamurthy was present through out the meeting.
Officebearers of the Association: The new President is R S Hiremath. and Vice -President Purushotham. Channakeshava A is the Secretary. Brig Murthy will support the association as an advisor.

 The muggers prowling the stretch of Ring Road near HSR Layout appear to have shifted to the road connecting Electronics City with Bannerghatta Road, which runs parallel to the NICE corridor.
Commuters are taking the road parallel to NICE Road (above) connecting Hosur Road and Bannerghatta Road fearing blockades by protesters.
Motorists have been using this road since the NICE corridor has been blocked by villagers protesting over some issue. But, in the last three days, techies and corporate executives have complained of muggings on the road.
The latest attack was reported on Wednesday by a techie of Wipro Technologies who was attacked by a few men late in the afternoon on a deserted stretch. The techie had used the road connecting the back gate of Wipro Technologies and Bannerghata Road.
Following several such incidents, cautionary messages have begun appearing on the web and community group sites alerting other techies and advising them to either avoid the stretch or be careful while using it. Continue reading From HSR Muggers Shift near NICE Road
 Image Source: Citizen Matters They unanimously demanded a clean layout and asked their corporator to look into the garbage problem.
At the resident welfare association (RWA) meeting of HSR Layout on Sunday, members put forth their demands to corporator Latha Narasimha Murthy.
R S Hiremath, who was elected president of HSR RWA, said garbage disposal is a major issue plaguing the layout. “The corporator has promised to look into the issue,” he said. Officials from BBMP and BDA also attended the meeting.
Former HSR RWA president Brigadier R S Murthy said Karnataka Power Transmission Corporation Limited (KPTC) dug up the road long ago but is yet to repair it. “We had asked KPTC officers to attend the RWA meet but none came. This is very disappointing. Civic authorities shouldn’t just dig up the road and leave it like that. Now, it’s raining every other day, posing a danger to residents,” he pointed out.
The other issues discussed were pig menace, unplanned digging of roads and garbage disposal. The meeting was in two parts — first was the board meeting, in which new president was elected and six more office bearers were included; the second one focused on problems faced by residents and interaction with the corporator.
