The Bengaluru South MP also shared a video of a school-going autorickshaw driving through a badly damaged stretch littered with open manholes and potholes

The politics of who will fix Bengaluru's battered roads has reached fever pitch, with Bengaluru South MP Tejasvi Surya entering the fray.

Surya posted a thread comprising a letter, which was written from a school, appealing to the parents to write to civic officials to repair the roads immediately for the sake of their children.

Given below are the tweets by Surya regarding the same:.

"See the condition of the road. There are uncovered manholes here—children can fall in. Two-wheelers, three-wheelers, and buses can't pass through. It's a disaster waiting to happen. Thousands of children, many in school vans, pass on this road daily. How can they ignore this?" the Bengaluru South MP posed to News18.

Surya challenged the Karnataka Congress government to take responsibility for keeping the infrastructure of the city intact, stating that the tech hub of India is "crumbling" under its regime.

On Wednesday, after touring areas badly hit by relentless rains, Karnataka deputy chief minister DK Shivakumar asserted the damage was worst in BJP constituencies.

Reacting to this, Surya said to News18, "Does Bengaluru belong to a political party? It was Shivakumar who began the practice of releasing money to Congress MLAs but not to BJP MLAs. Let him come out with how much crores were released to BJP MLA constituencies and how many crores to Congress MLA constituencies. Recall how in Jayanagar he intentionally withheld money from the local BJP MLA? You cut money from BJP constituencies and then point fingers at those same regions?

The letter Surya had sent was signed by the secretary of Kumaran Group of Institutions. It requested parents to "acknowledge the challenges posed by the condition of roads leading to the school," and emphasized the inconvenience and danger for students.

The school urged the parents to approach civic authorities directly: "If you would like to further support the cause, we urge you to write directly to the concerned municipal or public works department. A joint voice from the parent community will perhaps help bring focus to the urgency of the issue and trigger quicker action," the letter added.

The school also clarified that it has repeatedly requested for road repairs, but its role is limited. “The responsibility of repairing public roads lies solely with the municipal bodies," the letter stated. Surya pointed out that he was chosen to serve all of Bengaluru and should be held accountable for the issues of the city. "MLAs do not enjoy executive power, that rests with ministers. The irony is, while they mark two years of so-called good governance, half of Bengaluru is sinking," he said to News18

In a record-breaking feat, 38 of the 44 students from Arunachal Pradesh's West Kameng district border villages of Jang and Dirang have cleared the May 23 All India Sainik School Entrance Examination, thanks to a free, rigorous coaching program conducted by the Indian Army's Gajraj Corps from July 2024 through April 2025. Intended to bridge the knowledge gap in backward areas, the program offered intensive academic training and motivational inputs, which enabled students to gain the discipline and confidence to compete at the national level. The Army celebrated the achievement as a validation that talent does not recognize barriers and confirmed its dedication to empowering the youth through education. The success has been cheered as a light at the end of the tunnel and as an inspiration of national pride and patriotism, representing the Army's vision of building the country through accessibility and opportunity.

The achievement is owed to a free, high-impact coaching program conducted by India's Gajraj Corps between July 2024 and April 2025.

The program was initiated in a statement to fill the study gap among rural students and the program was meant to empower young minds in some of the most rural and disadvantaged parts of the nation.

The release further added that the army trainers provided special academic training and motivational guidance, built skills, discipline, and confidence to compete on a national platform.

The Public Relations Officer (PRO) also added, "These talented young minds are the future of India. Their success is a testament to the fact that talent has no boundary, and with proper mentoring, even the farthest corners of our country can shine."

This historic achievement is an icon of hope and national pride in the Indian Army's tireless mission of nation-building through education, empowerment, and inclusivity. Gajraj Corps wishes these young achievers and their families congratulations on this achievement and to continuing to light up many more to follow.

This order was issued six years after a local NGO had submitted a petition citing the total lack of a government school within a 3-4 km radius of the area

The Delhi High Court has rapped the Delhi government and its agencies for failing to open a newly constructed government school in Northwest Delhi’s Kirari despite the building being ready and staff already appointed.

The court has directed that all deficiencies be fixed and the school be made functional by July 15 without fail. It remarked: "It seems the concerned authorities do not have the required will to initiate the operation of the school… the infrastructure that has been developed is still to be utilized. Such a strategy cannot be welcomed for the reason that even though the government has spent public money, the school is not operating since no admissions could be made."

This move is made six years after an area NGO had brought a petition to notice indicating the total lack of a government school in a 3-4 km radius in the area.

The Indian Express dated May 16 mentioned that two government schools, one of which is the Kirari school, have been idle for months since inauguration. The Kirari school had been inaugurated by the former AAP government earlier this January.

The case was registered in 2019 by Hamara Prayas Samajik Utthan, an NGO that works on education rights. The HC had dismissed the case then after ordering the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) to provide land for the school. The land was provided, and the Prem Nagar 3 building in Kirari was built and opened in January 2025.

But more than a year after that, the school is still not open.

On 21 May this year, a division bench of Chief Justice D K Upadhyaya and Justice Tushar Rao Gedela again heard the case after the petitioner NGO submitted a new application requesting directions to make the school operational.

The court considered inspection reports of two meetings conducted in April and May this year. The reports enumerated various serious issues in the school building:

There is no electricity since the connection cost has yet to be approved in the budget.

The septic tank capacity is too small to accommodate the anticipated 4,000 students.

No sewage connection or any other system for wastewater disposal exists.

All the science and vocational labs are unfinished, having no plumbing or fittings.

Building has uncovered balconies, stair gaps, and unlocked rooftop gates, which the court said were hazardous to children.

Furniture is lacking, particularly for the main wing.

"Notice of electric connection has already been placed by TPDDL, yet the budget has not been released to the electricity department of the PWD by the Directorate of Education, GNCT of Delhi. The matter has been taken up with the higher authorities for further action," said the PWD.

There is no approach road to the school, and it is practically challenging for students and faculty to access it. In this context, officials in meetings directed the school head to remind the DDA on constructing an approach road to the school.

All these issues, the court observed, have been well known to the government for months now, yet nothing has progressed. "Such an approach cannot be appreciated," said the bench, "… The school, as we have been told, is to accommodate 4,000 children in the area, which, by itself, should have induced the authorities to make the school operational."

The court has directed the issue to be put directly before the Secretary, Department of Education, who must himself ensure that all issues that are pending are settled and the school commences operation by July 15.

"During this period, the deficiencies… may be made good by all departments concerned in all respects," the order stated.

The court also asked the DDA to start working immediately on building the access road to the school and complete the work at the earliest.

In order to prevent the school from losing another academic year, the bench ordered the Education Department to initiate the admission process straight away and provide extensive publicity, calling for students to apply. Affidavits of progress should be filed by Secretary of Education and DDA V-C by July 23 in the next hearing.

Assam Rifles is assisting National Integrity Education Development Organisation (NIEDO) in providing coaching to deserving students for JEE and IIT entrance examinations. Axis Bank is providing sponsorship to the initiative of one-year residential coaching program to provide a better tomorrow to meritorious students from all over Nagaland.

The NIEDO–Assam Rifles project has been one of the major ingredients in shaping the professional life of most of the Naga boys and girls from economically backward families by providing them an opportunity to avail quality education. It also offers counseling, thus helping the students not only to prepare for competitive examinations but also to become good citizens.

Assam Rifles, Axis Bank, and NIEDO signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in May 2022 for the establishment of the "Late Capt N Kengurüse, Mahavir Vir Chakra (MVC) Centre of Excellence and Wellness" at Chieswema, Kohima. Capt Kengurüse of 2 Rajputana Rifles, a native of Nagaland from the Kohima district, made the ultimate sacrifice in the Kargil War when he single-handedly destroyed an well-entrenched medium machine gun bunker. He was posthumously awarded India's second-highest gallantry award for the act of supreme valour.

The institute prepares students for extremely competitive exams such as NEET and JEE. The project has been initiated in 2022 by inducting 30 talented students from the entire Nagaland. The applicants underwent a highly rigorous testing procedure to pick the crème de la crème. The project has been established as a one-year, fully residential coaching and mentoring institute for NEET and JEE exams. Experienced and trained teaching faculty members of NIEDO impart the syllabus, and quality education is delivered. The collaborative effort of NIEDO and Assam Rifles has greatly benefited the people of Nagaland, especially the youth. Following the success of Chieswema centre, Assam Rifles and NIEDO have expanded their efforts to other locations. In August 2024, the same effort was expanded to Ghaspani (Medziphema) with the inauguration of Subedar PB Chhetri, Kirti Chakra Centre of Excellence.

Subedar Chhetri of 7 Assam Rifles received India's second-highest civilian award for leading his troops during an anti-terror operation in J&K at 14,000 feet. During the operation, 72 of the well-trained terrorists, who had come back to J&K after being trained in ISI-funded camps in PoJK, were eliminated and 13 others were arrested.
