Citizen–Government Effort Transforms Iblur Junction Under-Flyover Stretch on Bengaluru ORR

The makeover is showcased in a viral video that credits the Mahadevapura Task Force for aligning civic bodies with volunteers.

Overview

  • Arun Pai shared before-and-after footage showing a debris-strewn corner under the Iblur flyover turned into a cleaned, freshly painted space.
  • BMRCL was thanked for debris removal, the Bengaluru city corporation for cleaning, and volunteers for painting the pillars and beautifying the area.
  • The Mahadevapura Task Force coordinated multiple civic agencies to respond to repeated complaints about the Outer Ring Road junction.
  • The Instagram video went viral, drawing praise from users who called the transformation a ‘miracle’ and urged similar efforts elsewhere.
  • Context from recent coverage notes wider road-repair pushes, including a Rs 1,100 crore citywide allocation and concerns that other ORR stretches remain in poor condition despite prior spending.
