Mahadevapura had never dreamt development. All development plans were envisaged only after 2008, it is a record that most of them have already been completed.
What are the changes we witness in Mahadevapura constituency in the last four years? What did Arvind Limbavali feel when he stepped in Mahadevapura for the first time? In his own words: “Alas! Why Dr. D.M Nanjundappa did miss visiting Mahadevapura?’’ It is but natural for such response, as Limbavali has studied Nanjundappa committees report on’ regional imbalances and the backwardness of the regions’. He was astonished with the backwardness of Mahadevapura after visiting it first time! “Do you think you are capable of developing Mahadevapura?” Do you think you can bring significant changes” hapless public questioned him when he went to campaign in the constituency. It is true that Arvind Limbavali, did not make any promises, just kept silence.
No roads, toilets, schools without teachers, connecting road without bridges, several examples of land encroachment- Such was the situation of Mahadevapura.
Now we can proudly say that the situation has changed. Roads, drains, pavements, electricity, water, clearance of encroached lands and regularized slums – name it; you will witness the change!
Arvind Limbavali has written down in his diary all the accomplishments he made in the first four years of his first term as MLA along with the yet to be completed developmental works. The people of the constituency feel that any task recorded into his diary would never be left uncompleted. For example: Arvind Limbavali has learnt that primary health care hospital and safe drinking water are the prime necessities of any constituency. He has started several schemes of renovating lakes and increasing ground water levels.
When we witness enumerable examples of developmental works in the very first term of his leadership, we can truly hope for such changes even in the future.
Let’s identify the problem, Let’s solve it!
A transparent way of serving people has been the secret of Arvind Limbavali’s success. Please feel free to visit, inspect and record the developmental works undertaken and bring it to his notice if you find any discrepancies. Arvind Limbavali is always open to accept criticism, identify the root cause of the problem and solve it; he is honest enough to accept the delays and discrepancies if any, of the projects undertaken.
The funds poured in for the developmental works of Mahadevapura in the last four years exceed 1200 Crores. These funds have been used for providing basic facilities, civil amenities, education, construction of houses, for the welfare of people of Mahadevapura.
What was the miracle idea in raising such huge funds? Answer was intelligently simple enough! Arvind Limbavali effectively utilized all available funds from various sources, such as funds available for Bangalore development, funds available in housing, education, health, social welfare departments. He prepared a plan of action to make use of union Government schemes and MLA funds.
You will find the complete details of these funds in the next page.
If an MLA decides to develop his constituency, the Government would also respond and the developmental funds can be used for the benefit of the people in the right way. Also, they would not be misused, rather high quality developmental works can be executed. Developmental works in Mahadevapura are good examples of this.
There will be an ongoing process to raise such funds for developmental works next year as well. Mahadevapura constituency people can be sure of more such developmental works in future too.
