Bangalore: Open Praja meeting

admin123 - 28-NOV-2008

Trying to start recurring Praja meetings, see this post for background. Venue Lalbagh West Gate. Agenda: update each other on things we are into, think how to make our virtual group do more and help members collaborate better.

Meeting with Lokayukta Justice Hegde

admin123 - 25-NOV-2008

Some of us went and met Lokayukta Justice Hegde today. A long, and very interesting meeting, I am not sure how much of what we heard we will manage to post here. Its one thing to hear stories of corruption (loose talk like X eats money, Y drinks duddu) at parties, and simply another to hear those from people (we heard from Up-Lokayukta and their PR Officer Mr Riaz as well) who deal with such cases and people on daily basis.

Monthly Praja meetings at Bangalore?

silkboard - 22-NOV-2008

A lot of activity goes on behind the scenes here that doesn't show in blogs and forums. Not that members want to keep things private, but things tend to start via emails or conversations between island groups of members, and there is just no time to post everything in detail.

Meeting Notes - Mr Sood, Sep 20

Placeholder for notes from this meeting. Started almost 2 hours late as Mr Sood had to rush off to another meeting. We were asked to wait till 1 if possible. We spent this time chatting up with each other, and even managed a lunch at Shivajinagar bus stand canteen. Right when we planned to call it a day, Mr Sood returned. psaram, idontspam, Deepika, Srivathsa, silkboard, Ravi and Devesh (only for the intro) were present. Look fwd to meeting notes from all.
