Single Emergency Response Number for Bengaluru/Karnataka

kbsyed61 - 9-JAN-2012

We do have phone numbers to dial in case of emergency. But there are many problems with them. There are a bunch of numbers and not just one. 100, 101, 103, 8 digit numbers on national highways, a separate number on NICE Road, and even more. Next, numbers like 100 don't reliably work from cell phones.

Urgent need for single emergency helpline number!

Isn't it odd that we have to call different helpline for different emergency needs? In Bangalore, the listed emergency helpline numbers are:

Police - Dial # 100

Traffic /Accidents - Dial # 103

Solving City's traffic problems - Govt/Babus OUT, Citizen IN

Ruling dispensation busy in saving their skins, divided in camps, CM dosing one fire after the other. Opposition in total shambles and behaving like headless chickens. Babus calling shots and in most cases avoiding the obivious to save their careers.
