That is true.

There has been a crackdown on Bars recently in the state.

some teetotaler named Sudheeran.

I am surprised that you knew about Sudheeran but not smart city,a project that dragged on for years.

Thank god!....they are not against fishing..

That is true.

How?Seaplanes have no oily bilge water or sewage discharge, no underwater engine exhaust, propeller, or other underwater protrusions, and seaplanes do not generate a significant wake.

Bangalore is looking pretty great nowadays...

This city could use all the power it can get and more!

 

[SrNair]

Soon our enivronmentalists come with an arguement that this project will destroy underwater biodiversity.
I cant trust this news until this project officially commission.

 

[Dubious]

How very Malayalalee of me. Care about Alcohol, not about development.

Correction. Bangalore used to look and feel great till the mid 90s. It went to the dogs thereafter after a decade and half of rapid, unplanned and unsustainable expansion and urbanization owing to the IT boom. What we have now is a city that is forever in the throes of extreme discomfort to it's citizens over trying to create an infrastructure that can somehow match the population at hand.

btw, that aerial shot of the Vidhana Soudha is quite an old one. This is how it looked in 2011. This is pretty much how it still looks, as Metro work hasn't finished yet there.

Yeah I know.


2 governments have come and gone, but smart city project is still in its infancy.At times I wish keralites werent as "educated" as they are, in some ways it stalls kerala's development.

@Indischer it is not a good idea I think to put your economic eggs in one basket this case bangalore. That is what happend to Chandra Babu Naidu.

Again, I am ignorant but the growth should have been diffused more equally among Mangalore, Mysore and other cities and townships to take the pressure off Bangalore.

I think bangalore can sustain 4 or 5 Million at the max.

Bangalore already has around 9 million now....and growing. Problem is, most of these infrastructure upgrades are already inadequate at effectively serving their purpose by the time they're commisioned owing to the burgeoning population.

Mysore has seen a spurt in growth of late. But neither Mangalore nor Mysore can share or ease the burden on Bangalore. Given that our whole demographic is still in the process of flux from a rural concentration to an urban one, the point of saturation and stabilization of a city's population will still take decades. And till that time, Bangalore is fcuked. Mysore and Mangalore will simply expand and swell in population independent of Bangalore, not at it's expense.
