Scan QR code, get number of official & contractor in charge of road in Bengaluru

The Hindu  

A new QR code appears on road signboards in South zone, which when scanned takes you to a page with not only details of the road, but also contact numbers of civic officials and contractors in charge of the road. The webpage that citizens can access by scanning the QR code has the names and contact numbers of officials and contractors in charge of road engineering, the sweeper assigned to the street, sweeping supervisor, details of waste generated, garbage collector, officials in charge of street lights and fogging of the street, BWSSB officials in charge of water supply and sanitary issues on the road, officers in-charge of handling stray dog and cow menace on the street, pruning trees, among others. Citizens can scan them to go to a page where all the required information about the road and the contact numbers of all civic officials and contractors are listed. Civic activist N. S. Mukunda of Bengaluru Praja Vedike, and a resident of South zone, said that while the project is a welcome citizen-friendly initiative, more needs to be done to really make it a true instrument of transparency, to help citizens hold the civic body to account.
