A TEDx talk, national television features, news reports and footage shot at the roadside — gathered in one place.
Tilak's story featured on national television.
2,000+ potholes repaired, and a movement that outgrew one man.
Tilak and Venkateshwari, and the car they call the 'Pothole Ambulance'.
1,359 potholes counted by January 2019 — and a question for the state.
A day on the road with the man christened the 'doctor of roads', in the BBC's Unsung Indians series.
A disabled techie couldn't reach an ATM. Tilak answered within 30 minutes.
A long interview on the philosophy behind Shramadaan.
A spade, two brooms, a wire brush, a crowbar — and a boot full of gravel and tar.
From senior section engineer to full-time road repairer.
'Be the change you wish to see in the world' — taken literally.
Gunny bags of tar-mixed gravel in the back seat, every single morning.
Tilak's quiet revolution against the indifference of broken infrastructure.
