sanjayv - 30-DEC-2009

 After the recent bridge collapse in Rajasthan on the E-W corridor involving Gammon, am beginning to wonder about who would conduct a proper audit of the company's practices?  Since Bangalore Metro has offloaded a portion of the work to Gammon, this is particularly worrying for us. There are three major accidents that have been reported in the national press.

Doing a survey for bus day, help please

silkboard - 27-DEC-2009

Task to create a not too geeky, not too simple survey that we will run online (and if possible, offline as well) till the bus day.

I am thinking he survey would consist of 2 or max 3 simple questions. Ignore the verbiage and text here, will make this less geeky.

1) Mention your top 2 reasons for not taking the bus
