This two-minute video captures the reality of #Bengaluru beyond headlines or political narratives of being India’s IT capital.
No footpaths.
Footpaths taken over by garbage.
Abandoned vehicles.
Sewage on the streets.
Broken roads.
Oversized political posters choking already congested roads.
The entire area stinks of urine and shit
This isn’t a one-off stretch. This is near Banashankari bus stand, a route I take every single evening with my 10-year-old daughter.
We proudly call Bengaluru cosmopolitan and people-friendly. But will those words hold meaning for the next generation if this is the reality they grow up seeing?
She recently asked me, “Isn’t there a better place in India to move to?”
I didn’t have an answer.
@DKShivakumar this is not about perception anymore. It’s about lived reality. It makes me cry to see what our city is going through. When will it shake you up?!
