LAKE DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY LDA AND BENGALURU(BANGALORE)

 The city of Bangalore is a marvellous city in many ways chisseled and christened by centuries of occupants both domestic and International and every community for that matter has left an indelible stamp on the city in its own way and right..

Very crisply said the city of Bangalore has many decorations handed down by the past both pristine and modern.The greatness of this city are its lakes -myraid of them in every nook and corner.Added to these lakes are three formal rivers which are in turn connected to these lakes.The water in these lakes are largely gifted by the Eastern Ghat mountain range which are short in height and barren and large supplies of water descending from these mountains traverse in many ways accross the Bsangalore plains to join the Cauvery river in some form down the plains.The lakes are largely plush with water from the Eastern Ghats and also from the rains.

When I was a kid there were two major lakes near our house which are oliterated now.In 2002 I had sent an email to the then Chief Minister of Karnataka Shri. S M Krishna the need to save these lakes and hence came the LDA (Lake Development Authority) which over the decades hence has done a splendid job preserving and developing these lakes.

Recently I visited the Nayandahalli lake and was wonderstuck at the wonderful flora that has been created around it and also two fountains in the middle with coloured light.Such fountains could be placed in all the lakes to add to the aura of the city.The same model could be followed across the country by district administrators to preserve the water bodies and add fountains in the middle with coloured light which glorifies the town in many ways.

THE NEW BSNL LAND-LINE SYSTEM

 The new BSNL land-line telephone system coupled with internet hotspot(optional) is technologically different in many ways from conventional co-axial cable systems. It uses optical fiber upto the last meter and then uses an adapter which is power operated to connect to the land line. Data transmission of voice and other data is much faster and is a good option.

The dis-advantage of this system is that it always needs power back-up. If power fails the system does not operate. BSNL can supply a small UPS with this system to give power back-up during power failures to keep the system operational.

BSNL along with institutions like ITI could team up to set up such optical fibre broad-band telephone systems in countries that still use co-axial cables. This would be a good international operation for both the institutions and other support institutions in this feild.

TOPSYS SOLUTIONS PVT LTD AND Mr.BALAGOPAL KARAT

 At  the entrance of the 100ft road in Indira nagar  operated a firm called TOPSYS SOLUTIONS PVT LTD   in the mid 1990's and was run by an alumnus of IIT  Kanpur by name Mr.Balagopal Karat an enterprising person in many ways and had skills at developing and packaging new software.He had a wide range of products one of them in the design of Electrical Layouts and another was an Accounting Software formidable in many ways called ACCOUNT-21.

I  worked for a couple of months here as a consultant doing business development for the software Account-21 and was successful in selling them through software channels.I got rare insight into the accounting software market. During these times TALLY used to be the leader.I used to meet software re-sellers in Kolar,Hosur ,Mangalore ,Hyderabad etc.During my tenure here I understood there were scores of Accounting softwares in the country-numerous of them. Accounting Softwares  paved way for the mdern ERP softwares of various kinds.

Mr.Balagopal Karat handled the overall operations very well. I dont know what became of TOPSYS later but is an inspiration that relatively small outfits using minimum number of people can work  wonders in sectors like software where to my understanding there is more scope for developing custom-made specific softwares.
