The irony of the whole Metro-Nanda Road issue is this paragraph that is proudly displayed on the Bangalore Metro website. (http://www.bmrc.co.in/)
"The capital of Karnataka,Bangalore - is blessed with a pleasant climate, beautiful parks, canopied avenues, and a rich cultural heritage with a cosmopolitan touch. A city ahead of its times, Bangalore heralded the Information Technology revolution way back in the 1980s. It has earned a coveted place in the international arena with landmark progress in the fields of IT, bio-technology, garment manufacturing, industrial development, real estate, health, higher education and hospitality.""
.... it is almost feels like they are saying that this is Namma Bengaluru today and we will change all that with Namma Metro :-)
I hope the protests will stay alive and Metro authorities will heed sooner than later.
Cheers,
