Hosur Road is Hell. Period.
The title of the article in TOI said it all..
17000 PCU per hr, the traffic in the busier areas on Hosur road crawling at half a km per
hr,500 trucks daily to n fro Tamilnadu, the road dotted with more than 50 IT companies, with
most of them having their own bus services. Numerous people in their own vehicles; cars,
bikes, bicycles.
And we can't forget the pedestraians, peddlers, people waiting for the BMTC
buses, hawkers, cattle and wot not!
Hats off to the traffic police who donned raincoats and gum boots and braved through the
raging traffic and waters to do their precious bit.
Bangalore is making news for all the wrong reasons..
The infrastructure chaos, Mr. Dewagouda's speculations and Mr. Murthy's resignation from BIAL,the not-so-sure-and-eager-any-more investors,the soaring costs of living, the rains, the traffic, the increasing rates of criminal activities; esp directed towards the so-called affulent IT population.. ,you name it, and Bangalore has it on the prowl these days!
No, am not going to rant abt all the woes and sob-stories of being in Bangalore.. [ any more, I mean ]
The rate at which this once beautiful Garden City is deteriorating .. certainly causes a heart ache..

Really SAD CASE.
Deve Gowda should be hanged for continuously trying to throw a hammer into the works.
Empty promises and politicians trying to score a point...that's what is killing the city. Really, not a soul in the administration seems to give a penny's worth to how haphazardly the city continues to grow. And then there are tall claims like the one from the Bangalore city officials when Mumbai was flooded in late July...at that time, these guys ranted that unlike Mumbai, Bangalore was well equipped to handle the 35 inches of rainfall because of its "foolproof disaster-management programs"...well, look at what 5 inches of downpour did on Monday...and well, it continues to rain. May the good Lord save the Garden city.
