The blame games are very heavy on all channels but, which link is the genuine link for these Shakti Scheme, Griha(Gruha) Lakshmi, Griha(Gruha) Jyothi etc., schemes??? none of the www.sevasindhu.gov.in weblinks are working properly. When we follow the link, under the services offered by govt. SS,GLS,GJS are not showing up in the website. Not able to even see the application forms as well. Once we register with our Adhaar card, further there is no login page to proceed further. Where do we go and apply for the same physically, please let us know.

All fake . Your adhar card should have ur name in Kannada and not in any other language . Else they won’t accept even if u have karnatak address on it or even if u have voted for congress .

People are misusing this scheme. Everyday men and Students are suffering because of this scheme. In the buses even if seats are available in frontside ladies are occupying last seats only if we ask they will start argument. Everyday this argument going on. Even conductors ask them to go front ladies are not obliging his words. They will occupy senior citizen seats also. Some senior citizens never ask their seats if ladies are sitting but if men occupies they will come and ask very rudely.
This scheme is totally not happy for men, senior citizens and students.
Because of this many ladies are misusing this and dominating men in worst way.
With a great pain I am writing this and need to take action on this scheme. Better to close at the earliest.
Many men are depending on buses for their work. Because of this they are sufferings a lot. By paying ticket charges also men are standing and sufferings but ladies are enjoying free seats with time pass. Stop this scheme on priority.

Many times I have sent mail and requests to take action in BMTC buses.
Because of useless schemes many people are suffering.

try to develop the country by encouraging new employment, new innovations by adopting technologies instead of doing useless benefits which will affect youngsters.

let me know whom to meet and convey our concerns in this regard.
