BBMP cornering apartments, legality questioned
A really good idea. It is of great help for the elderly and persons with ocular disorders. You may also consider getting them in pendrives so that it can be used on the move also. Congrats and good luck.
Have to completely agree with this article. The philosophy of governance seems to be to find groups like apartments and dump all responsibilities on them. Let me try to elaborate. For a relatively large apartment, today, there are myriad responsibilities. (a) Sewage treatment and 100% water recycling (b) DG maintenance (Sewage treatment needs 24 hr power, so DGs cannot be avoided) (c) transformer and electrical panel maintenance (d) Electrical inspectorate inspections and compliance (e) Post distribution and now (e) Wet waste treatment. Hello... what gives? I am not contesting that all these are not essential activities. However, when individual home owners do not

Tuberculosis affects eyes too Tuberculosis is very common in India.
Tuberculosis affects many organs in the body like lungs, brain, intestines etc.
When there is primary Tuberculosis infection in the body, the eyes get affected too. The involvement of eye is an allergic response to the tuberculosis bacteria elsewhere in the body. Ocular manifestations Tuberculosis are:
of
1. Phlyctenular Conjunctivitis: It is seen as a small grey nodule on the conjunctiva (a thin layer on white coat of the eye) surrounded by redness (congestions). 2. Scleritis: The white coat of the eye (Sclera) also sometimes show inflammation - this is Scleritis. It is painful and recurrent. When Scleritis occurs, the Ophthalmologist usually recommends blood investigations and finds tuberculosis as the cause. Treating systemic tuberculosis relieves swelling of sclera and the recurrence rate decreases too.
Advertiser Feature
3. Iridocyclitis: Inflammation of iris (brown portion of the eye) called as iridocyclitis is also caused many times due to tuberculosis. This inflammation is usually of longer duration and the treatment takes longer too. Repeated attacks of iridocyclitis can cause secondary complications in eye such as Cataract and Glaucoma.
4. Tuberculous choroiditis: This is manifested as small choroidal tubercles (miliary tubercles) or large sub retinal choroidal mass. The presence of miliary tubercles (three or four small round pale yellow spots near the optic disc) is diagnostic evidence of tuberculosis in cases of Meningitis. The patient is treated with oral antitubercular medications for a period of six to nine months. The ocular manifestations treated with steroid drops.

Editorial
How a ‘powerful’ BBMP overruled state government to transfer top forest cop
J
ust as the R P Sharma case has gone into the background temporarily, Citizen Matters has broken a story on yet another transfer that shows BBMP in very poor light. (Read this online on www.citizenmatters.in). In August, a standing committee in the BBMP council got the city commissioner to transfer Brijesh Kumar, the top forest officer for the city area. Kumar, a top ranking Indian Forest Service (IFS) officer was posted in May this year as Chief Conservator of Forests for BBMP. The state government did this on the grounds that Bengaluru had become an environmental mess in all three major areas - lakes, trees and horticulture. Worse, litigations were flying around. The CCF position in the forest service (state level) is a powerful one with decision making powers. Unusually for a bureaucrat these days, Kumar created a draft policy for lake development in Bengaluru premised on citizen participation. He proposed the creation of neighbourhood level bodies with citizens, BBMP and NGO members. This authority would have the power to maintain and protect lakes. Furthermore, he set afoot serious moves to protect 14 of Bengaluru’s lakes in coordination with the Lake Development Authority. But Kumar did not stop there. He exposed unnecessary spending of Rs 21 crores for the city’s parks by BBMP’s contractors. Kumar says he submitted his expose to BBMP Special Commissioner Niranjan on
October 10th. His packing orders were signed by Commissioner Rajneesh Goel on October 11th! For more on this, read our expose online. But BBMP’s reason was partly this: the `5 lakhs extra salary cost of paying for a CCF level officer instead of deputy conservator was a burden to the city! It did not matter that the approved budget for the works Kumar was going to oversee was a whopping `250 crores. Connect the dots yourself. Clearly our councillors did not want this man. What is also interesting is the city council’s exercise of power. A body that long been only willing to act as a mere puppet of the state government struck out with a neverbefore-seen authority to scrap a state government appointee. Town planners are appointed all the time into BBMP by the Karnataka government. Many of these officials have been exposed to be ill-qualified and collude with the powerful. And yet, no city council resolutions ever came to cancel their appointments. One forest officer decides to take on the establishment, and he’s pushed out. Kumar knows if he takes the case to the Central Administrative Tribunal, he will win, like R P Sharma did. But he isn’t up for a fight. That is another story.

She says she can independently travel to office, shop or visit friends. She adds, it is easy to drive and small, “I never feel guilty occupying too much space in traffic” and that it causes no pollution.

Palike asks Bengaluru residents to ‘Bag it’
A
cardinal principle in administration and policy making is that one should never introduce a rule or law that cannot be enforced. The dangers are manifold - those who flout the rule get away with impunity, and the rest of the citizenry get the message that laws mean nothing and need not be obeyed. Take BBMP’s latest decision on dog poo. Residents whose dogs mess up the pavements and public places, are now warned that they will be fined and penalised. Every morning, one can see a steady stream of residents from the welloff residential neighbourhoods, walking their dogs (fancy breeds, some of them) on a leash, and stopping every now and then, to let their pet do its business, at the base of a lamp post or on the concrete
slabs of the pavement. While the animal is at it, the owner will look the other way, as if pretending that
Isn’t the proliferation of stray dogs connected to the other obligations of the city’s municipal corporation?

All about water purifiers Is your tap water safe or do you need to purify it? Or should you just buy bottled water? How do you decide? Here is a quick guide to water quality and water purifiers.
S

water supply are bacteriological contaminants, nitrate and Total Dissolved Solids (TDS). Bacteria is usually found in water from Cauvery and borewell water, while nitrate is mainly found in borewell water. TDS is also found in borewell water supply.
“Our building receives water mainly from tankers and we weren’t really sure of the source and how effective our purifier is, so we felt buying the 20 litre Bisleri bottles was a safer option,” Sheetal says. The couple plan to acquire a new water purifier but are not sure which system would give them foolproof protection against contamination and water borne diseases. Terms such as activated carbon, reverse osmosis, ozonisation, etc., can also be confusing in this case.
Next thing is to find out the kind of technology you need to remove contaminants from water. “The water purifier needs to remove undesirable chemicals, materials, and biological contaminants from raw water and make it fit for human consumption,” Ramani adds. What the purification process does is reduce the concentration of particulate matter including suspended particles, parasites, bacteria, algae, viruses, fungi; and a range of dissolved and particulate material derived from the surfaces that water may have had contact with.
Citizen Matters approached S Ramani of Consumer Association of India, to find out how to buy an effective water purifier for your home. We also got some inputs from India Water Portal, an initiative of Arghyam, an NGO working in the water sector.

Technologies Available Activated carbon: This is a form of carbon (usually charcoal) that has been processed to make it extremely porous providing large surface area for adsorption or chemical reactions. Activated carbon filters use granular carbon or blocks of powdered carbon that can remove pesticides, chlorine, and other chemicals found in tap water. Reverse Osmosis (RO): This is basically filtration at molecular level. Mechanical pressure is applied to an impure solution to force pure water through a semi-permeable membrane. It is reverse because under normal osmosis, pure water moves into the contaminated water without any pressure. RO is required in your home if TDS

purify water. The positively charged ions in the solution are drawn through the membranes towards the negative electric charge, and visa versa, leaving behind a purified water.
Distillation: This involves boiling water and evaporating it. Contaminants, bacterias and viruses having a higher boiling point than water, do not evaporate and remain solid. Then the vapour made to pass through tubes and filters where the solid contamination gets separated from the vapour. Then the vapour is removed from the heat source and condensed back to water. This process removes most minerals, most bacteria and viruses, and any chemicals that have a higher boiling point than water from drinking water.
Ultra Violet Purification: This method is used mainly for disinfection and to make water containing any disease causing micro-organisms safe for drinking. Passing ultra violet rays makes these micro-organisms unable to reproduce.
Electro deionisation (EDI): This involves ion exchange and electrolysis processes, working simultaneously during the operation. It uses semi-permeable membranes and Direct Current to
Usage of iodine, chlorine and plain and simple boiling water also achieve similar effect, Ramani adds. Ion-exchange filters: This is used to remove hardness in water. Ion-exchange filters can remove iron, lead, copper, barium, radium and nitrates and are usually integrated into the water purifier along with other methods.

List of brands and approximate price Pureit - Hindustan Unilever, Kent water purifiers, Eureka Forbes - Aquaguard, Tata Swach water purifier, Whirlpool water purifiers, Philips water purifiers, Permionics, Fabiano, Usha Brita, Godrej, Pigeon, Zero B water purifiers, The prices of the water purifiers range from Rs 800 to Rs 34,000 depending upon the brand and technology used to purify water.
Reverse Osmosis and UV purification as they have the highest ability to purify water according to drinking water standards. According to a research done by Consumers Association of India (CAI), the water purifier you select should ideally depend on the extent and type of contamination together with the TDS level in the water. Depending on the water quality, it is best to choose UV or RO technology to purify the impurities in the water you get. The most popular water purifiers are Pureit and Kent as they incorporate advanced technologies in water purifiers and fit a small budget. The store manager of one of the leading outlets of Girias, says, “Mostly people prefer Pureit or Kent as they are best suitable to purify drinking water from sources such as bore-wells and pumps.� The Croma sales manager also agrees that these two are the most chosen brands because of their durable bodies and they also require much lesser amount of servicing.

Bengaluru stinks, W
ith assembly elections less than a year away, what is topmost on Bangalore voters’ minds? Garbage has been raising stink for the last three months, Cauvery is the bone of contention again, even as the Phase II, Stage IV, shows signs of materialising and traffic woes still top all discussions about the city. What are our ministers in-charge saying and doing about these issues?
Unconvincing ministers
Among the top issues that worry Bangaloreans are water, transport and garbage collection. Will voter views and concerns matter in the not-faroff assembly elections for Karnataka?
Deputy Chief Minister R Ashoka who holds the Home portfolio also the minister incharge of Bangalore was in the news when villages like Mavallipura and Mandur located near landfills protested against garbage dumping in their backyard. In the effort to clean up the city, there was a move to have police escort the garbage trucks to Mavallipura and ‘divert’ some of it to Mandur (ToI Aug 24). The health minister Aravind Limbavali, was conspicuous by his absence during the entire episode. After all, the residents of Mavallipura and Mandur were citing health issues caused by the illegal dumping of garbage. All Limbavali had to say was, “Garbage cannot be dumped here in my constituency.” Mandur happens to fall under his Mahadevapura constituency. By his own admission, the garbage is being dumped in
Mandur since 2005 (BM Aug 28). The only time, we saw the current chief minister Jagadish Shettar, (third in four years), in action on the garbage mess, was when he intervened and convinced Mandur villagers to allow the garbage to be dumped there. The Mandur residents agreed to this only for a month though. Even ex-chief minister B S Yeddyurappa tried to use the garbage issue as an agenda of his political comeback vehicle, (TOI, Sep 11). But apart from criticising the earlier governments and serving platitudes on the importance of ‘scientific disposal of garbage’, nothing much came of it.
HC governing the city? Nothing seems to move in Bengaluru without PILs or protests off late and garbage mess was not an exception. Even the grand waste segregation plan was a result of a PIL. Even earlier, it was only HC’s intervention that set things in motion for waste management. Urban Development Minister S Suresh Kumar had said “We are in an unusual situation where HC has to interfere and direct the public to segregate waste,” (NIE Sep 12). Why did the waste management not figure in the urban development agenda in the first place?
Cauvery nammadu Chief Minister Shettar, however garnered much press on the issue of Cauvery. Statements like ‘Manmohan Singh is acting as an agent of TN’ and ‘injustice of centre’ have been issued over the release of water to Tamil Nadu. While the finer details of the 10 CITIZEN MATTERS 20 Oct - 2 Nov 2012 Vol-4 Issue-19

How do I store e-waste? Store them in separate container which is kept closed, away from moisture and in which nothing else is put. WET WASTE What is wet waste? Wet waste consists of kitchen waste - including vegetable and fruit peels and pieces, tea leaves, coffee grounds, eggshells, bones and entrails, fish scales, as well as cooked food (both veg and nonveg).

Interview
F
eature filmmaking is a hard profession to break into. But after more than a decade of documentary filmmaking the transition is rather smooth, especially when the subject is as exciting as a little girl in ladakh and her efforts to go to school. Priya Ramasubban, who calls herself a storyteller has made films for National Geographic, Discovery, History Channel and other major international broadcasters.
Chuskit turns her into a feature filmmaker
P
riya is now raising funds to make her first ever feature film ‘Chuskit’ based on the children’s book ‘Chuskit goes to school,’ published by Pratham Books. The book is authored by Sujatha Padmanabhan and is inspired by the work of Priya’s sister Vidhya K Ramasubban’s work in Ladakh. In an email interview, this Bangalore based documentary filmmaker talks about why Chuskit’s story inspired her to change tracks, even if temporarily. Edited excerpts.
You have been a documentary filmmaker all along. Why a feature film now? I love making documentary films because I get to travel all over the world, meet people whom I’d never have crossed paths with and tell the stories that are based in reality! It is a very intimate way of getting to know the world around me, and to pass on those stories through my work is very special. But this story is better told in a feature setting, because the plot and characters here call for the telling of the story in the present tense. In the end I am a storyteller and, in this case, the form I use to tell the story is not as important as how effectively the story is told.
Is this a film for film’s sake-
expression of artistic, creative urge etc., or do you hope to send out a message with this film? Definitely a bit of both! I’ve never made a fiction film though I have done a lot of recreations for my documentaries about historic figures or events in history. And so jumping into the fiction world is really new and exciting for me. But I wouldn’t have done a feature film if it didn’t have a larger meaning or if I didn’t think it was going to push the envelope in some way.
The crossover from documentary to feature - how easy or difficult is it? There are things that are very different - the money you need, the number of people on your crew, the writing of a screenplay versus writing a script/treatment, having to direct actors, the scale of post production, figuring out the distribution of the film, etc. I don’t see it as easy or difficult. I see it as different and hugely exciting!
You have traveled quite a lot for your documentary films. Which

‘Chuskit’ tells the story of a 6 yrold prankster living in a remote village in the mountainous region of Ladakh. Chuskit can’t wait to be old enough to go to school the next year. In a sudden twist of fate, she falls down an icy mountain ledge and becomes a paraplegic. Living in rural Ladakh, in rugged terrain where life is bound by the dictates of extreme weather, life for Chuskit and her family becomes complicated. The twists and turns her life takes, spurred by her burning ambition to go to school and her eventual mental triumph over her handicap forms the rest of the story. Go to http://www.kickstarter.com and search for ‘Chuskit,’ if you want to contribute to the making of the film.
are the most memorable ones? If I had to pick, I’d say my shoots in Gaza would have to be at the top of the list. I was there a couple of times during the second intifada and the proximity of life and death there was so palpable and heightened that everyone I met seemed to be living their life to their fullest knowing that there may not be a tomorrow for them. There are so many wonderful memories. I’m going to add some from the Chuskit film to this list...

Flowers you can eat
W
e often tend to think of flowers as a thing of beauty, only to be admired. They look very pretty, whether cultivated carefully in the garden, or flowering in the wilderness...and often, they cast a beautiful scent around them, too. Right now, we have the Akasha Mallige trees in full bloom, a heady fragrance wafts through the air when we pass by them. But there are flowers which are good to eat, too! One such flower is the bloom of the banana (plantain) tree. The banana plant produces a single inflorescence, also known as the banana “heart”. It is the actual rows of flowers between the “leaves” (called bracts)

Deepa Mohan I had always heard the name “Sweetpea” for this kind of flower, but had not thought about it... but then, I was given one of these flowers, whose beauty I admired. I was then asked to eat it! I tried it... and it was crunchy and sweet. The Sweetpea is an annual climbing plant, grown in many of our gardens. But we cannot gorge ourselves on the flower...the seeds can disagree with us, and be toxic if eaten in large quantities!

India. It was developed in India during the 19th century from the now-abandoned C o r n i s h type,and includes old varieties Early Patna and Early Benaras. The cauliflower “head” that is eaten is called the “curd”. Several other flowers in our gardens, such as the Rangoon Creeper or the Desert Rose, may not be fully edible, but they have nectar stored at the base, and if you pinch the end of the stem and put it in your mouth, you can actually taste the sweet nectar that the Sunbirds, bees and wasps come and harvest so regularly! In our traditional cuisine, even the flowers of the Neem tree are used in cooking, as are the flowers of the Moringa (Drumstick) tree. So, the next time you look at flowers, you can think of them in terms of taste as well as colour and aroma. And remember that the flowers provide a lot of food to many insects.

last word
Why moms take an entire day to pack There was a time when I packed, grabbed a book and went on vacation. Now I’m a mom. I just drag myself behind a suitcase that contains half the household. There was a time in my life when a vacation meant packing a few clothes in a bag, a couple of books, camera, a brush, toothpaste, cream, comb and a few other essentials. It was usually done in about an hour the night before the said vacation, even if there was an early morning flight. That was then. And there is now. I have spent the entire day packing and it isn’t even done yet. And the flight? It isn’t until Saturday. Yes I know. That sounds extremely scarily organised. But I’m no longer packing for one. I’m packing for two, no three, which means myself and the two brats. I have made a list. Checked the weather at our destination. Laid out the appropriate gear. The trouble comes when I’m about to throw it all in. Isn’t that red t-shirt one size too small? Out it goes then. Now do I see a hole in that sock? Oh and have I only packed one jacket? One? Yes I know it is rather warm where we are going but I am carrying kids
along. And as we all know their chief purpose in life is to prove Murphy’s Law right.
confessionS of a second time mom
Reshmi Chakraborty What if brat junior decides to throw up on the one jacket he has on the one day when it is windy and I’m stuck in a one jacket kind of situation? Do I have enough diapers? Yes dear husband, I know they are available in every medical store around the country but what if they run out of the size he wears? Children demand back up plans more often than not. You think they are old enough to go without the
stroller and plan to do short walks followed by rest during a city tour during a vacation. That’s the day he decides to latch on to your shoulder. You try to outgrow the diaper days and carry a regular bag with baby’s minimal stuff instead of the Gorilla size bag you usually tag along. That’s the day of multiple nappy changes, soiled pants and repeat biscuit requests, something you haven’t been able to fit in much in your mini bag. Is it any wonder then that I take an entire day to pack? Packing for kids is equivalent to planning for an emergency landing in an uninhabited island where you are likely to be stuck for three whole years. Paper pads and crayons. Yes Books. Of course Electronic device not otherwise given to child. Now what to do about it. Favourite soft toy. Favourite snack/biscuit Favourite sipper. Extra diapers (hand baggage only) Toys that will survive airport security and save your sanity. (Ma’am could you please open the suitcase spilling out your haphazardly organised things and locating the toy that’s making this strange beeping sound because the brat switched it on behind your back while you were packing)? There, I have said it. There was a time when I packed, grabbed a book and went on vacation. Now I’m a mom. I just drag myself behind a suitcase that contains half the household. Wish me luck.
