Is Bangalore a good place to bring up a child?

s_yajaman - 11-OCT-2009

IDS's post on the Olympics set me thinking a bit.  Though the title of my post refers to Bangalore, we can substitute "any Indian mega city" in its place.

Bangalore today is very different from the Bangalore in which I grew up (70s and 80s).  I won't get into that too much.

Service Life of Elevated Metro

blrsri - 9-OCT-2009

 There have been numerous debates on wether we take metro underground or do we have it on elevated structures..these have been mostly related to the following:

1. Number of tree cut and properties damaged

2. Cost of going underground

2020 Olympics in Bangalore

idontspam - 8-OCT-2009

 I would suggest we start building an Olympic park near Bangalore so we can bid for 2020 olympics. Of the BRIC countries only we havent won the bid to host an Olympics yet. The economy is booming and we can get some funding/private participation now.

Traffic ticket received by mistake

nithinsujir - 6-OCT-2009

Hi,

I need some advise on how to proceed with my situation. I received a ticket in post for apparently riding on the footpath at Adugodi Uco bank junction. The issue is that my bike has been at home for the last 3 months and noone else uses it. I suspect the constable may have jotted down the number wrong.
