			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>My Dear Bangalorean,</em></p>
<p>As we approach the deadline to build a resurgent India, your encouragement and your mails have more than inspired me. Thousands of blessings and well wishers will carry the nation to a new height unseen in the nation?s history. Thanks for your support. I am overwhelmed at the response which I got for my previous mail sent to you. Accept my apologies, for my inability to respond to each one of you in person, though I have tried my level best to reply to each of you personally.<br />
Friends, BJP shares your pain and has been witnessing this trend unleashed by the congress for long. Now is the time for forcing a change. The nation&#8217;s future is once again safe in your hands. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Vote for change.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Vote for Development.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Vote for BJP.</strong></p>
<p>My single request to every right thinking voter is <strong>&#8220;Come out and Vote. The nation needs your guidance, support and active participation&#8221;.</strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;If you are finding difficulty in knowing details of your voting venue, number, etc., feel free to contact my Helpline numbers 32022254/55, 32024313/14&#8243;.</strong></p>
<p>Yours sincerely</p>
<p><strong>AnanthKumar </strong></p>
<p>Nation First, BJP is the Best<br />
VOTE BJP<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Dear Bangalorean,</p>
<p></em>Hearty greetings to you.</p>
<p>As we approach the deadline to build a resurgent India, your encouragement and your mails have more than inspired me. Thousands of blessings and well wishers will carry the nation to a new height unseen in the nation&#8217;s history. Thanks for your support.</p>
<p style="vertical-align: top; text-align: justify;">Most of you have just one question.</p>
<p style="vertical-align: top; text-align: justify;"> Is &#8220;<strong>India Shining&#8221;?</strong>   No, actually &#8220;<strong>India is Blazing&#8221;. </strong>Yes, Blazing with anger against the misrule which is palpable and well justified. You seek answers to the mother of all questions`. WHY???</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li style="vertical-align: top; text-align: justify;">Job losses and growing insecurity</li>
<li style="vertical-align: top; text-align: justify;">Uncontrolled price rise and</li>
<li style="vertical-align: top; text-align: justify;">Economic downturn and our helplessness as a nation</li>
</ul>
<p style="vertical-align: top; text-align: justify;">Friends, BJP shares your pain and has been witnessing this trend unleashed by the congress for long. Now is the time for forcing a change. The nation&#8217;s future is once again safe in your hands.</p>
<p style="vertical-align: top; text-align: justify;"> BJP resonates your thoughts and our manifesto ( <a href="http://ananth.org/news/bjp-manifesto/" target="_blank">http://ananth.org/news/bjp-manifesto/</a> ), exactly reflects the sentiments you express. Here are solutions the nation needs. </p>
<ul type="disc">
<li style="vertical-align: top; text-align: justify;"><strong>Tax benefits</strong> up to Rs. 3.00 lakhs (3.5 lakhs for women &amp; sr. citizens) per annum. This will positively gladden millions of my countrymen.</li>
<li style="vertical-align: top; text-align: justify;">Issuing a <strong>National Identity card</strong>, which will usher in a wave of safety and security to the common man.</li>
<li style="vertical-align: top; text-align: justify;">Creation of an additional <strong>12 million IT / ITES jobs</strong> apart from millions of jobs in the manufacturing sector.</li>
<li style="vertical-align: top; text-align: justify;">Unleashing an <strong>infrastructure revolution</strong> throughout the length and breadth of the land. This will in turn boost trade and commerce and enhance further employment.</li>
<li style="vertical-align: top; text-align: justify;">Our IT vision document ( <a href="http://ananth.org/downloads/bjps-revolutionary-it-policy/" target="_blank">http://ananth.org/downloads/bjps-revolutionary-it-policy/</a> ) reveals solutions for all the three problems mentioned above and much more.</li>
<li style="vertical-align: top; text-align: justify;">Our <strong>Namma Bengaluru Action Plan 2012 </strong>- To transform Bengaluru in 3 years ( <a href="http://ananth.org/news/release-of-bengaluru-action-plan/" target="_blank">http://ananth.org/news/release-of-bengaluru-action-plan/</a> ).</li>
</ul>
<p style="vertical-align: top; text-align: justify;">Friends, India has suffered for long. Let us shrug this lethargy and ..</p>
<p style="margin-left: 36pt; vertical-align: top; text-align: justify;"><strong>Vote for change.</strong></p>
<p style="margin-left: 36pt; vertical-align: top; text-align: justify;"><strong>Vote for Development.</strong></p>
<p style="margin-left: 36pt; vertical-align: top; text-align: justify;"><strong>Vote for BJP.</strong></p>
<p>Yours sincerely</p>
<p><strong>AnanthKumar </strong></p>
<p>Nation First, BJP is the Best<br />
VOTE BJP<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Dear Bangalorean,</em></p>
<p>Hearty greetings to you. </p>
<p>I am overwhelmed at the response which I got through emails sent by you. Accept my apologies, for my inability to respond to each one of you in person, though I have tried my level best to reply to each of you personally.</p>
<p><strong>I could sum up the crux of your replies as follows.</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>What will you do for Bengaluru, if you are voted for the fifth time?</li>
<li>Can my travel time to office and back be reduced considerably?</li>
<li>Can you do something to reduce the pollution, I am forced to breathe?</li>
<li>Can I have uninterrupted power supply throughout the year?</li>
<li>Can I be guaranteed pure drinking water at all times in my tap?</li>
<li>Can I move around in peace, doing my job, without fear or tension?</li>
<li>Can I have the green cover, which Bangalore boasted of a few years ago?</li>
</ol>
<p>These have been asked by several well-wishers and lovers of this once beautiful city. I state &#8220;once beautiful&#8221;, with some sense of embarrassment and a deep concern for the city where I was born. The past 50 years of congress misrule have reduced not just Bengaluru, but all major cities into a challenge for reformers.</p>
<p>Friends, the blueprint for a Comprehensive Bangalore Development Plan (CBDP) is being prepared. Your queries are timely as I am in the process of finalizing this plan for Bengaluru.</p>
<p>To re-establish the beauty of Bengaluru, would be the duty of any elected member and I promise you that the BJP at the center and BJP in the State would make this matter much easier to achieve. Building Bengaluru back to its erstwhile glory is a matter of duty for me and needless to say this is already an action item on top of my agenda. <a href="http://www.abidebengaluru.in/">ABIDe</a> is one determined step in this direction.</p>
<p><strong>The following is a glimpse of what I plan for Bangalore .. </strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Citizen Centric Governance: </strong>Citizens Participation - &#8220;Citizen-Connect&#8221;, Upgradation of Public Utility Services, Safe &amp; Potable Drinking Water, Integrated Mass Transport System - Better coordination between BMTC, KSRTC, Train, Metro &amp; Airport.</li>
<li><strong>Urban poor :</strong> Health Insurance for under privileged , Mobile Clinics, Implementation of Telemedicine, Health awareness programs. Low cost housing projects for urban poor,</li>
<li><strong>Quality Infrastructure of Global Standards:</strong> Top class roads, wide footpaths, street lights that work, Wi-max zones for Bangalore, Introduction of 3G Telecom Services, People friendly Parking and Traffic Management, Online payment of utility bills, Dedicated Power Plant for Bangalore.</li>
<li><strong>Safe and Secure Bangalore: </strong>Creation of Citizen Charters for Safe -Secure Bangalore, Increased night patrolling; special security for working women traveling late hours.</li>
<li><strong>Clean - Green Environment: </strong>Promoting Rainwater harvesting; Steps to improve ground water table, Promoting plantation in public utility places - &#8216;One Family One Tree&#8217;, Public Transport run by CNG, Adding many more parks.</li>
</ul>
<p>More details of my Bangalore agenda would be available on my website <a href="http://www.ananth.org/" target="_blank">http://www.ananth.org/</a> very soon. Let me know your valuable thoughts. Your response would inspire me to work, more stronger than ever.</p>
<p>Come. Be a part of &#8220;TEAM BENGALURU&#8221;.</p>
<p>Yours sincerely</p>
<p>AnanthKumar</p>
<p>Nation First, BJP is the Best<br />
<strong>VOTE BJP </strong><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I am writing to seek your support in the forthcoming Loksabha Elections from Bangalore South Constituency. You have blessed me and elected me four times continuously. Because of your unstinted support, Atalji, the Statesman Prime Minister of this country assigned me several important portfolios.</p>
<p>Though the name Bangalore-South remains same, as you are aware, the erstwhile constituency consisted of areas from Jayanagar to Yashwantpur. However, Now, majority of IT belt is also added - from Koramangala to Hosur Road to Bannerghatta Road to JP Nagar to Padmanabhanagar and beyond. Hence, I am excited to represent some of you for the first time and others for the 5th time.</p>
<p>During the last 4 terms, I have tried to be the voice of educated and mature citizens of Bangalore both inside Parliament and on the national &amp; global platforms. Here is a gist of the works done -</p>
<ul>
<li>As a proud <a href="http://ananth.org/achievements/as-a-parlimantarian/">MP representing you all</a>,  - I have tried to be the voice of Bangalore &amp; Karnataka in the parliament. I have pressed for expeditious implementation of various projects of Bangalore, I have initiated debates over general &amp; Railway budget, Rising Prices of Essential Commodities, Non-payment of Salaries to the staff of ITI, etc.I have utilised the entire sum of over 20 Crores of MP Fund for the <a href="http://ananth.org/achievements/as-a-parlimantarian/mp-lads/">benefit of Bangalore</a>. As you may be aware, Vijaya Karnataka has rated me as the No. 1 MP from Karnataka.I have supported tens of thousands of underprivileged school children thru midday meals, improved educational facilities and health insurance thru my NGO <a href="http://www.adamyachetana.org">http://www.adamyachetana.org<br />
</a></li>
<li>When I was Civil Aviation minister - Signed MOU for the Bengaluru international airport and parallelly ensured 360 degree connectivity at then operational HAL airport adding international terminals, aerobridges etc. I have <a href="http://ananth.org/achievements/as-a-minister/civil-aviation/">turned around both Air India and Indian Airlines</a>.</li>
<li>During my <a href="http://ananth.org/achievements/as-a-minister/urban-development-poverty-alle viation/">tenure as Urban development minister</a> - Got 700 KM of highways to Karnataka, signed MOU and got approval of planning commission for Bangalore Metro, record HUDCO funding for Bangalore infrastructure, established South India center of BMTPC in Bangalore. Built over 10,000 houses for slum dwellers of Bangalore under VAMBAY.</li>
<li>As <a href="http://ananth.org/achievements/as-a-minister/minister-for-sports-and-youth- affairs/">Sports &amp; youth affairs minister</a> - Initiated several programmes for nation-building. Vande Mataram program to usher in the new millennium was celebrated throughout the country. Over 500 young achievers were invited to parliament to create a new agenda for the new century.</li>
<li>As <a href="http://ananth.org/achievements/as-a-minister/tourism/">tourism minister</a> - drafted a national policy on tourism, 887 tourism projects amounting to Rs 230 Crores sanctioned, simplified the rules regarding the grant of approval to travel agents and tourist transport operators, Creation of cultural heritage programs and IT-based innovations for facilitation and information, IT kiosks, Computerized electronic guides during walk-throughs.</li>
<li>As <a href="http://ananth.org/achievements/as-a-minister/culture-minister/">culture minister</a> - Brought beautiful Hampi under UNESCO World Heritage sites, signing of cultural exchange programs with 76 countries, Digitization of major works of nine contemporary artists including Rabindranath Tagore, Nandlal Bose, Amrita Shergil, Nicholas Roerich etc. Established South India center of IGNCA in Bangalore</li>
</ul>
<p>Thank you for giving me the privilege of showcasing Namma Bengaluru to the Global Community. Carrying forward the vision of Atalji, <em>let Bangalore be the beacon for the citizens of India.</em></p>
<p>Today, unfortunately India is mired in a series of crises like crisis of internal security, economic crisis, agricultural crisis, cultural crisis and crisis of Governance. The only hope, the only solution, the only way forward is Shri LK Advani led NDA and BJP both for India and Bangalore.</p>
<p>We need to think&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Think NATION FIRST, Act NATION FIRST, Make NATION FIRST</strong><br />
<a href="Think NATION FIRST, Act NATION FIRST, Make NATION FIRST http://www.nationfirst.in">http://www.nationfirst.in</a></p>
<p>Now, I would like to draw your kind attention towards my vision for Bangalore. With BJP government at the state and NDA at the center, based upon my experience as <a href="http://www.abidebengaluru.in">vice chairman of ABIDe task force</a> for the last 9 months, I would like to turn around Bangalore in the next three years and make it a role model Metropolitan City in the entire country and give it, its legitimate place on the world map.</p>
<p>I am preparing a Bangalore Action Plan that will be structured on 5 points, namely -</p>
<ol>
<li>A Stand-alone Act for BBMP</li>
<li>Citizen Centric Governance</li>
<li>Urban-Poor Development Program</li>
<li>Comprehensive Bangalore Development Plan (CBDP)</li>
<li>Preserving our Heritage and Environment</li>
</ol>
<p>I am inspired by the &#8220;Kempegowda Vision&#8221; for the development of the city. We at BJP want to offer &#8220;Quality life&#8221; to people from all walks of life and we are determined to make it a reality.</p>
<p>Thank you for sparing your valuable time. I welcome your suggestions in this regard. Please write to me at <a href="mailto:ananth@ananth.org">ananth@ananth.org</a>.</p>
<p>I would send further details of my elaborate plan shortly.</p>
<p>Nation First, BJP is the Best;<br />
<strong>VOTE BJP</strong><br />
