Pathetic infrastructure in Bangalore
Bangalore must have the most pathetic infrastructure of any major city in India.
It is difficult to find one pothole free road in Bangalore, let alone one smooth one. Almost every road is choked with traffic because the public transport system is the pits and everyone uses their personal transportation. Lots of cars, SUVs and bikes with just the driver in/on it equals total traffic chaos. I'm guilty of the same but there is no choice.
Electricity supply is equally pathetic with long power cuts during weekends the norm. This is true even in the central parts of the city where I used to live until very recently. Far flung areas are worse with upto twelve hours of power cut during Sundays.
Water supply is also pathetic with large areas not receiving corporation water supply and being forced to depend on borewells or tankers.
Bangalore Shining? Only a true Bangalore chauvinist will say that is true!
