Had a wierd experience today

Came to Bangalore to join an in-office role, the org and role is good. But coming from Gurgaon, I was not able to like the city. Some cons: - Extremely poor infrastructure like a tier 2 city - Every govt official is corrupt, police can harass you anywhere - You neither feel homely nor is there any vibe of a cosmopolitan city. Local politics will not let this city become a cosmopolitan startup hub. Gurgaon is so so much better. - Everyone just wants to loot money, everything is expensive. Rent is high, landlord deducting 1 month extra rent, unnecessarily high security amount, cook and maid everything is so effin’ expensive - Alcohol is expensive. - Good food is expensive The value of money is lesser here as compared to the rest of the country. I have a flight tonight and I am so happy that it’s a one way flight. I don’t mean to offend anyone, but bangalore can be very lonely and it has been so for many of my friends. Particularly ease of life is much higher in NCR and that’s why a lot of people move back. Those who feel otherwise haven’t lived in NCR so Bangalore is more of just a bubble for them. Adios!

Background During a trip to Thailand, me and a colleague accidentally swapped bags. When I called to explain the mistake, his wife accused me of trying to seduce her husband. She harassed me with phone calls, and later threw eggs at my residence. Then, set her husband's bag on fire and got into trouble with the police. She was then arrested. For full context: https://share.gvine.app/FdwwvTcDLzaK6i2a9 I would also like to address those who said that the story is fake. It isn't. I genuinely posted this here because as a woman it is hard to find spaces online to vent my frustrations. I was genuinely distressed at the moment and my flatmates did take care of me. I also received tons of support from the community here and I am thankful for that. Here's what happened next: I decided not to press charges as I am living away from my family and I don't want this to be the reason they start interfering in my personal freedom. Over the weekend, she apologized and invited me for dinner, I obviously declined because she acted all insane before. But she is literally so dramatic that she lied to everyone that I came to her house and hit her so hard that she puked all over her clothes. Thankfully, their society has CCTV coverage and I didn't even leave my home all weekend. So, no one believed her this time. Our group thankfully supported me throughout this and the colleague is no longer in the group. Now, I just want to get over this traumatic experience which when I look back at is too unreal to even think about.

I was standing near Whitefield in my 4 wheeler around midnight, just away from the hustle bustle of the fast life, smoking a cigarette and had a beer 1 hour before the incident (beer can was present in the car) when a police Jeep stopped and asked me to come out. They checked my entire car (to find more illegal drugs 'read Marijuana') but didn't find anything. Started threatening me with the car seizure. When I asked them to do breath analyzer test as I was 100% sure of being in the permissible limit, they asked me to come to police station for the same after they issue me a challan. How can they issue a drink driving challan when I am not drunk and without a breath analyzer? And started threatening me with 25000 rs fine plus car being released in 6 months plus more than a lac of rupees in lawyer cost. (Ofcourse bullshitting me) They were doing the proper good cop bad cop tactic and I had to pay them 7k bribe just to get out of there. (Couldn't risk the whole court drama, couldn't afford time as I was roaming without the knowledge of my family and avoid anxiety to them and my car also has northern registration) But is this justified ? Can we not even smoke a cigarette in our vehicle in this godforsaken city ? Do we need to be mindful of the goons or the police ? Anyways, what is the best way to get out of such situations?

What is wrong with people based on this news I saw 1. Why has any other girl not helped her 2.Is the the psycho and out of mind to go and kill someone 3. Will the police arrest him soon and such is our justice system, it would take I don't know how long for proceedings. 4.landlord would ask for resume and linkedin before giving flats but safety is totally neglected. https://www.indiatoday.in/india/video/bengaluru-pg-murder-cctv-2572282-2024-07-26

I’m sorry to put this story out today But it’s common to encounter Eunuchs at every big traffic light in Bangalore. They ask for money, usually you can say no respectfully and they go away. But off late whenever I deny; they’ve been more and more aggressive Cut short to today when a Eunuch pretty much pinched me very very hard on my arm just near my triceps. The whole area got swollen red. All this just because I didn’t want to give them my money today

Another day, another assault #WaitingForKWarriors

The recent incident of a Bengaluru auto driver arrested for abusing women is now being crowd funded to cover his legal fees. What a day to live in. Bengaluru never ceases to surprise.

Eve teasing, groping, molestation, and other severe acts. Ladies, I'm happy to be Proved wrong
