“Eve teasing is a great threat to the student community in Somasundrapalya and HSR Layout schools and colleges,” he tweets. “We request Hoysala to do rounds around 4 pm near all the schools in these areas.”
 
Speaking to Residents Watch, Krishnappa said, “The cops promised that they would patrol the area. In any case, whenever I see any suspicious activity, I take photos with the vehicle number and upload them on Twitter. These are traders in the area who are indulging in eve teasing. It happens once or twice a week.”

The residents plan to make the Somasundrapalya Government Primary School into a model school. The school has recently been painted by a charitable organisation, but there is more to be done.
 
“If anyone is keen to volunteer and teach spoken English to the kids, they can contact me,” says Lalithamba BV. “If we citizens join hands, wonders can happen. Even 1 or 2 hours per week is good enough.”
 
The school has an open platform to conduct events. The principal is seeking funds, so the stage can be closed on three sides and make it rain-ready.
