Too little, too late. Bangalore is now endless suburban hell mixed with pockets of tech parks scattered throughout southeast, east-central and north. Even Hyderabad has more skyscrapers than Bhangilore now :/

>atleast a decade
Why do you say that anon? What makes you personally think it will be better in a decade's time or more? I hate the way Bangalore's expansion is going, but life there is still a lot more laid-back and higher quality than in dalli or slumbai
Remember
>The British established the Bangalore Cantonment in 1809 primarily for strategic military, administrative, and health reasons, following the defeat of Tipu Sultan in 1799. Its high elevation and pleasant climate made it an ideal, healthy, and centrally located base for troops
This is what we had. Fucking IT corpo cockksucker bhangis ruined it

Easy scapegoat. Real issue is blackmoney.
We need a system where that money can be put into buisness and other productive things instead of specific bubbles.

true, it is getting worse. till 2022-23 we had the cleanest air in any Indian city, it was always below 50 in monsoon and 50-80 the rest of the year. It suddenly dropped near the end of 2023 and since then it's almost always been above 150
after 2023 temperatures also started rising, we hit 38 degrees celsius at the time which was the hottest temperature in many years

I saw this on xitter yesterday. Basically, while cities in the rest of the world got less poluted as they got richer, but we have yet to see it in India.

Indian urbanisation rate is going to explode and I don't think the services are prepared for it.

Cost of land is a result of government policies.
On to Bangalore, the politicians are curropt. People are chill, but people are curropt too. They love blaming outsiders, but comfortably allow curroption day in and day out.
IT sector will soon crash heavily and Bangalore has an unhealthy dependence on IT fags.
Luckily, there are enough families of old money, that love the city, which will buy up properties and develop it in a better direction. But that takes time.

Because our infra growth is still addressing basic needs of people. As alluded in a previous thread , this will happen to us, when the bottom rung has money to spend and time to enjoy life.
Until that happens, this is not a complaint for people.
also until then, we need more massive construction, which is tough.

Yes. We need lot more new Tier 3 and Tier 2 cities. Not convert Tier 1 into smart cities, but simply create more and more smaller cities around industry.

An idea I get lot of hate for
200 of functional Tier 3's for blue collar
Handful of Tier 2's for white collar
4 Tier 1 cities for the real elite
These would be much better and sustainable, than Tier 1's swallowing a new village, to expand to absorb more builder made slop block residential.
Car ownership should be made extremely expensive and hard to get. Intercity travel should be monitored (already is , but room for more).

Indirectly jt is.
Good transport systems are the circulation systems of both country and cities.
Without good connectivity the city is pointless.
energy systems are relevant too. Both industries and high density cities need them. Renewables help somewhat with air quality. Though nuclear would be good.
