    Recently I was in Manglore, the way most of the people are driving the bike , rickshaw , car.. is frightening. they don't follow rules. i had to stop my car many times to give the way for these people.
    I saw myself how the two wheeler comes in between vehicles. The lorry driver cannot stop suddenly if the two wheeler or the car comes suddenly in front of them. can't blame only the lorry driver. Every one is hurry on the road.

    Where is Mr Khader who represents the area as a Minister. None of the people questioned about Him but just jumped with a Comment regarding Mr Nalin.
    My question to RTO: The front windshield of almost every 12 or 14 wheeler trucks are covered partially with Religious slogans or other decorations. This obstructs the full view from the Driver while driving. Traffic Police should take action on it.

    This is a national highway. What has it got to do with Khader ? I don’t know what he has said about Nalin but if he has told that he is responsible for the construction of the road then yes he was right. I’m not saying that you cannot question Khader. You can and we all should question our representatives but please make sure that it’s in a right way. Don’t misguide people.

    Govt is not serious in repairing roads. Same fate Bangalore witnessed in September October, where 5 people were killed and many injured. Condolences to deceased.

    Mr. Paul, this the poor mentality of the people, anything talk about highway , they say it is Central Government's responsibility.

    Why people election local MLA's or why State Government sleeping, is it not their responsibility to follow up with Central Government & get the work done?

    Otherwise why we need MLA's, let MP 's handle every thing.

    When you people improve. Forget about Political Parties, work honestly & unitedly to claim our rights through local leaders.

    Dear P. Shirish kumar, Mangalore
    What kind of project your favorite party MP handled?
    can you please describe what MP contribution for Mangalore past 10 years?
    can you show single development under his leadership?

    you say "work honestly & unitedly to claim our rights through local leaders."
    but another side you indirectly defend your favorite local party leader
