Bengaluru traffic and health will be disasters if 'Return To Office' policy is enforced by software companies.
Complete the metro lines throughout the city soon especially at Outer Ring Road, Electronic City, Whitefield and Mahadevapura.
Many roads in Bengaluru are filled with potholes
https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/bangalore/bengaluru-krs-workers-pothole-puja-authorities-7576872/
The Indian and Karnataka governments and software companies only know to loot taxes from the software employees and gives us absolutely "nothing" back.
Also where do the taxes go? Having such high population signifies that all the taxes paid are totally mismanaged and the citizens get nothing in return.

The politicians of India have declared Bengaluru as the most livable city in the country. I sure hope all the politicians and journalists of India burn eternally in hell.
https://www.hindustantimes.com/cities/bengaluru-news/once-a-source-of-drinking-water-bengaluru-river-now-filled-with-froth-stench-101614778435072.html
Pollution levels are extremely high in Bangalore. Water pollution is very severe in this city.
https://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/bangalore/air-pollution-led-to-12000-deaths-in-bengaluru-last-year/article33874517.ece
Don't forget, last year there were lockdowns and also the number of cases reported are far less in number. The actual numbers could be a lot higher than 12000.
In Bengaluru and throughout India, people are crazy about owning vehicles. People showoff their social status by riding their own vehicles. This appalling trend is observed throughout India.
It is no surprise that all Indian cities and towns are hellholes with horrible traffic and pollution.
Shame on Indians.
Bengaluru is a horrible place and it has completely ruined me and my family.
I am from Chandigarh and Bangalore is definitely a Garbage City.
Bangalore is also the capital of Hindutva terror in South India. Karnataka government is run by Hindutva terrorists. I am speaking the truth. The VHP considers all the Muslims and Christians as evil enemies of India. The ideology of the RSS is
"In India, Hindus are the owners, Parsis and Jews are guests, Muslims and Christians are dacoits."
This ideology is practiced and followed by millions of people in Bangalore including the software employees, managers, entrepreneurs and Central Government employees.
These same Hindutva terror supporters want to permanently settle and ask for onsite in Muslim and Christian countries. Bangalore has millions of people that support Hindutva terror.
In Bangalore, the Karnataka government and all the software companies show virulent hatred towards Muslims and Christians.
According to them, the ethnic cleansing of Muslims and Christians from Bangalore will reduce all the pollution levels in Bangalore. Air pollution, water pollution, noise pollution and sanitation issues will be solved.
I have a question - Why are foreign countries welcoming these millions of Hindutva terror supporters from Bangalore?
Bangalore right now has the highest number of Covid-19 positive cases in India, next only to Pune. Bangalore is more worst affected than the worst 3rd world countries.
All Bangalore software companies have cheating managers and entrepreneurs. The managers in all the Bangalore software companies openly discuss politics and instigate the employees. Religious discrimination, racism, bigotry, backstabbing, deceit, bullying, betrayal are extremely high in all the software companies of Bangalore.
Murder, Gangrape and Extortion happen very frequently at night in the streets of Bangalore. Vast majority of the crime in Bangalore not reported.
My sister was raped multiple times at night in the streets of Bangalore by drunk men. She was walking alone.
The people are scared of the police, law and order. Bangalore is filled with injustice in all aspects.
As plenty of people have correctly mentioned, I also fully agree that Bangalore is definitely the Suicide Capital of India.
But I will say that Bengaluru is cleaner and safer than any city in North India.
Sorry for the comparison, but South India is a lot cleaner, more safer, less polluted and more developed than any place in North India and Central India.
I hope Bangalore also learns from Singapore soon.
Bangalore has enormous amount of crime. Most of the crime goes unreported. The Indian media is Garbage and a puppet of the RSS. Chain-snatching, extortion, pickpocketing and molestation are very common in the streets of Bangalore.
Bangalore is also extremely polluted in all terms. Air pollution here is unbearable due to dust, smoke, pollen, smog, etc. All water bodies are ridiculously polluted. Waste materials are dumped to lakes and they're also encroached.
Noise pollution is extremely high due to vehicles, honking and construction activities.
One more thing is Indian Media over-sensationalizes news stories. Silly stories are pointless broadcast for several weeks and months. Factual news reporting is very rare in India.
And regarding the high pollution levels in Bangalore, yes, necessary steps need to be taken now to curb the pollution. People should take the initiative in reducing pollution in Bangalore.
There are plenty of sources online that confirm this fact. Bangalore has extremely dangerous levels of dust, pollution and traffic. Education is extremely expensive. People especially the religious minorities in Bangalore suffer abuse, persecution, racism and are bullied and undergo mental depression. There is extreme amount of racism in all the software companies and the Central Government institutions in Bangalore.
Pickpocketing, burglary, armed robbery, rape, extortion and molestation are very common here in Bangalore.
I have lived here and I know the facts.
Karnataka government wants to build more and more flyover, underpasses, metro rails, suburban rails in Bangalore. But the people or the government are not bothered about reducing the use of motor vehicles.
The analogy here is to increase the waist size of trousers to curb obesity, instead of stopping belly growth!
Startups are a fashion word in this city. No startup looks into innovative solutions to tackle the problems faced by this city. Bangalore startups simply copy the ideas of Western countries. Innovation never happens in Bangalore.
Many people have commented about these topics accurately over here and in other pages.
There only very few lakes left in Bangalore today. Most of these remaining lakes are either encroached by real-estate people or severely polluted. None of them have any aquatic life.
First of all, most Malayalees/Keralites have hallucinated opinions about Bangalore. Malayalees consider Bangalore a paradise. But in reality, Bangalore has extremely high crime, horrible pollution levels, worst traffic, highly expensive and most people in Bangalore are very rude, bigoted, cruel and very selfish.
Kerala movies and social media sites are glorifying Bangalore and flattering this town by sugarcoating information.
I have met many Malayalees saying that if they die in Kerala or abroad, they prefer to be cremated or buried only in Bangalore.
Sorry to be blunt, but most Malayalees/Keralites are lunatics. I have stayed in many places of Kerala and these are real facts.
The truth is that Bangalore has extremely high levels of dust circulating everywhere and the air is not at all suitable for breathing. Bangalore is correctly named as the 'Asthma Capital of India'.
Thanks for reading my comments!
Bangalore is horribly polluted and it is irreversible. Offering 'Work From Home' for employees of software companies will not reduce pollution or traffic. People will still use their vehicles daily for other purposes.
More and more companies and infrastructure will be placed only in Bangalore by successive Karnataka governments. They are not at all bothered about other places in the state. Bangalore has already become a Dystopia.
We the People of Karnataka have no other option for white-collar jobs and higher education, and have to forcibly migrate to this hellhole and nightmare place called Bangalore.
Sorry to be blunt, but successive Karnataka governments have and had mental illness of developing only Bangalore and ignoring all other parts of the state.
As @Naresh said, all infrastructure and multinational corporations are intentionally placed only in Bangalore and not in any other place in Karnataka, by the government.
And now the government further wants to develop only Bangalore and for namesake some village in North Karnataka.
Inspire of all these, Bangalore has become the biggest hub for getting infected by asthma, mental depression, water-borne diseases and obesity. Inspite of all the support of the Karnataka government, Bangalore still has become a hellhole, dystopia and India's Garbage City.
To quote that popular phrase "What goes around comes around".
Tonight the lockdown will once again be imposed in Bengaluru. Now thousands of Covid-19 infected people from this hellhole Bengaluru will travel today to Mysuru and other parts of Karnataka.
Being from Mysuru, I urge our city/district officials to please demand Covid negative certificates from all Bengaluru passengers. Otherwise Mysuru will be badly affected from thousands of these Covid infected travellers from that hellhole Bengaluru.

Most Kannadigas form the poorer section of Bengaluru society. But we Kannadigas are glad that we don't have to stay in Bengaluru anymore. Our own Karnataka capital city is well and truly an unlivable hell. We Kannadigas want peace of mind, serenity, tranquility and good quality of life. We are not money-minded people, in general.
Bengaluru is full of pollution, crime, chaos, traffic mess, Covid-19 cases and a total concrete jungle. Education and Healthcare in Bengaluru are ridiculously expensive. Only the super-rich can afford these facilities.
We Kannadigas don't want to stay in a place like Bengaluru. And we don't care even if it's our state capital. I have permanently moved back to my native place Alur in Hassan district.
But all successive Karnataka governments and politicians have been foolish to the core. They have only developed Bengaluru and ignored every other place in the state. Now they want to construct a 108 feet tall statue of Kempegowda at the Bengaluru Airport! And I also don't understand the purpose of constructing an Expressway from Bengaluru to Chennai. All the Karnataka politicians are foolish and waste all their money/funds for nonsensical causes in Bengaluru.
It's as if all living creatures can survive only in Bangalore and nowhere else. Even the trees and plants from all parts of the world will start walking to Bangalore to enjoy its climate.
It certainly looks like the "climate" and "language skills" are a cover-up for the extremely high pollution and crime in Bangalore.
The same climate boasting applies throughout Karnataka including Bangalore, Mysore, Belgaum, Dharwad and Shimoga.
People in Karnataka and throughout India can't tolerate the smell of fishes. But the same Indians won't say anything if they are living in some foreign country! There, they are willing to tolerate absolutely anything.
Indians are certainly living in a delusional world regarding climate, pollution, safety, language, education, economy, infrastructure, technology and software.
As of 18th June 2020, the Covid-19 positive cases in Indian metro cities are as follows:
Mumbai - 60,228
Delhi - 44,688
Chennai - 34,245
Bengaluru - 827
Source: https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/bangalore/why-bengaluru-covid-count-is-least-among-big-cities-6464136/
Bengaluru's numbers above, are statistically an outlier and a FRAUD. It's ridiculous. It is impossible for an Indian city with greater than 10 million population to attain such low numbers. Compare this to cities like Mumbai, Chennai and Delhi! This is purely due to Bengaluru's very low testing and ignorance of its people.
As far as I know, Coronavirus is found in every nook-and-corner of Bengaluru now. But people are very lazy to get tested. This is rightly and excellently mentioned by '#R Chopra' last week.
Having stayed for sometime in Bengaluru, I can clearly and honestly tell you that Bengaluru is a hellhole. And I found nothing special about the overhyped climate of Bengaluru. You must visit places such as Hassan that have excellent climate, but don't boast and brag like Bengaluru.
News sources and movies must stop sugarcoating and stop spreading misinformation about Bengaluru. They should instead show the real facts about this hellhole. I also thank each and every person for posting their honest comments about Bengaluru over here.
Bangalore is a highly polluted city. There is very high amount of dust throughout Bangalore. All water bodies are severely polluted. There is no piped water supply in Bangalore. Boasting itself as a Megacity, it is probably the only megacity in this world without any water reservoir!! Astonishing!
Water is supplied to Bangalore by water tanker mafia bringing water from faraway Kaveri. And no quality check of water is ever done. There is extreme amount of noise pollution from vehicle horns, air pollution from lakes of vehicles everyday all running on petrol, diesel or even kerosene!
And all the Karnataka politicians (past and present) are foolish, selfish and utterly useless. They have only developed Bangalore and ignored all other places in the state.
Now they want to develop Hubli along with Bangalore!
Even all the Central government (India government) politicians (past and present) have a very low IQ, just like our Karnataka politicians. All these foolish politicians are not bothered about developing Hassan, Chikmagalur, Kodagu, Udupi and Davangere. What is the use of only developing Bangalore and Hubli?
And to make matters even worse, the politicians want to construct an expressway between Bangalore and Chennai! This expressway is not needed at all. This is the result of giving power to very low IQ people.
Karnataka was, is and always will be the worst administered state in India.
And I completely agree with all other people, who've posted their comments here. They are all absolutely true.
Why does Bangalore have much less Covid cases than Mumbai, Chennai and Delhi?
The answer is simple. The Bangalore climate is awesome. People will live for 500 years due to Bangalore climate. You don't have to travel outside the boundaries of Bangalore. Bangalore climate will protect you from Covid-19.
Here is my honest answer to this question: People in Bangalore don't care to come out of their homes and get tested for Covid-19. Bangaloreans are by-far the laziest people in India. Now they will Work From Home. Even during voting, the turnout in Bangalore is the lowest. Order everything online. Drive alone in cars and honk recklessly.
Don't test for Covid, be ignorant and start boasting to sky-high levels.
"Bangalore has by far the lowest Coronavirus cases among all Indian metro cities".
"Bangalore has much low Coronavirus cases than Karnataka districts- Belgaum, Bidar, Gulbarga, etc.".
"Bangaloreans are the most civilized people in India. People in other Indian places are uncivilized".
Bangaloreans should be proud of their achievements.
Soon entire Indian population will migrate to this tiny "heaven on earth"- Bangalore.
Bangalore is a disgrace and a shame to Karnataka. Sugarcoated and Overhyped as a "cosmopolitan city", "great climate" town, Bangalore is a classic example of a village gone horribly wrong.
Hundreds of lakes are encroached, lakes are burning or frothing, garbage being burned openly at many places and people with nil civic sense. Bangalore has done very less coronavirus testing compared to many other Indian cities and towns.
People here only care about money and nothing else. Water quality in Bangalore is terrible and polluted water is supplied at high costs by the water tanker mafia.
Indian government and Karnataka government are filled with people with very low IQ. They want to construct a fast expressway from Bangalore to another highly polluted and worst town Chennai.
Best Regards.
Now shifting my discussion topic to Bangalore pollution.
I am surprised that even after lockdown and restricted movement of vehicles, the Bangalore Air Quality is in the "Poor" category since many days. I frequently check the Accuweather site and it's very reliable for Live Air Quality information in cities. Also note that it's summer season and not the foggy/smog season right now.
This clearly indicates why Bangalore is called the Asthma capital of India. There is severe amount of dust and pollen existing in Bangalore's air, and this is very risky and life-threatening to all its people. To make things worse, Bangalore is a completely landlocked city. The pollutants cannot be dispersed outside; they keep circulating in the same place forever.
While the online marketing teams have been successful in painting a rosy picture about Bangalore, the truth has to be spoken out. Unfortunately, truth is bitter to hear. Our friend @Suraj Chaudhary had commented in September last year, about the dangers of Asthma and pollution in Bangalore.
Sorry to be blunt, but Bangalore is already an unlivable city. This was correctly predicted by IISc.
I am living in Bangalore now and can't return back due to lockdown.
Can anyone tell me how is Bangalore weather considered "cool"?
I am suffering from severe skin burns due to Bangalore climate.
Can anyone suggest me a good dermatologist in Bangalore?
If you don't have Asthma, come to Bangalore to get infected by Asthma. Bangalore's dry climate and nasty air quality will make sure that Asthma will be your companion throughout your short-span life.
Enjoy the sweet sound of traffic-jammed horns, bathe yourself in the wonderful dust and watch your step for uncovered manholes covered by flood waters. Drink the contaminated Bangalore water to get tapeworms, round worms and diarrhea.
Sing your praises to the awesome Bangalore climate.
This is the Garbage city - Bangalore.
1. What is the use of having sub-urban trains in Bangalore? Is it to connect the villages around 50 km radius outside Bangalore?
2. What is the use of the Bangalore-Chennai expressway corridor? Why can't Bangalore have an expressway corridor with some other Karnataka cites itself?
3. Why increase the construction work in Bangalore itself? The entire town is already loaded all over with dust. Plenty of dust gets deposited on any stationary object in Bangalore.
Does the average life span even exceed 40 years in Bangalore? Or do Bangaloreans depend on other so called "villages" to extend their average life span beyond 40 years?
Delhi 2.0 will soon be a reality in Bangalore. Bangalore will be the Delhi of South India.
And don't boast that Bangalore is better than North Indian cities.
