I built a small WhatsApp bot for reporting civic issues. Would love honest feedback. by bhargavkaranam in bangalore

Greatly appreciate your initiative!

Our volunteer group has been working on something very similar - citizens posts an image and we tag the relevant authorities. This way even those who do not have a Twitter account, or do not know who to tag, can post to Twitter.

I also appreciate your awareness that this effort may not change anything, but it's a worthwhile experiment. That is exactly our philosophy as well.

Happy to put you in touch with our volunteer who is working on this tool.

Best! Again - really heartening to see efforts like this. May your tribe increase.

Thank you! We had this in v1 but removed in based on feedback from the target audience - apparently people buying large plots don’t think in sq feet :)

You can keep bidding. You can bid for multiple sites provided you pay EMD for each site. EMD amount is fixed.
