Today, River Vrishabhavathi is an open garbage canal.
In the 1970s, Bangalore had around 300 lakes. Today, there are only 18 lakes left in Bangalore. Nearly 10 out of those 18 lakes are highly polluted. These remaining 10 highly polluted lakes include Bellandur lake, Varthur lake, Ulsoor lake, Subramanyapura lake, Challaghatta lake etc.
People in the comments section have added many other valuable points.
Even today, Bangalore called India's 'Garden City' and 'Silicon Valley'.
A recent report said that nearly 17,000 potholes were present in the year 2017 in Bangalore city.
Dust is emitted from these awful Bangalore roads, which increases Air Pollution, along with the Nightmare traffic.
Ambulances get stuck for several hours in the Bangalore traffic.
Welcome to "GARDEN CITY OF INDIA".
The people in Bangalore have no brains. The local Kannadigas criticize and discriminate outsiders for all the bad things happening over there. But in reality, they are also at fault for ruining their Proud city.
The entire city is congested with vehicles emitting harmful smoke. No one even cares to reduce the usage of motor vehicles in the city.
The level of honking and noise pollution is also unbearable due to the brainless IT crowd over there.
Garbage is burnt at night in Bangalore because Waste management is a failure in this city.
Uncovered manholes spew out all the drainage water in some places.
Bangalore is a Nightmare to live in.
The level of boasting in Bangalore is off the limit. The people in Bangalore are living in a World of Delusion.
Just today, the top story in the Bangalore newspapers was:
"A Flyover pillar in Bangalore is decorated with plants".
This is a vertical garden, and a few more of this will turn Bangalore into the earlier Garden City that Bangalore was.
I mean, seriously? Are the people in Bangalore so dumb?
The Bangalore people also believe that these flyover decorations will completely reduce the pollution in Bangalore, and also cool the summer temperature in Bangalore.
Just visit Bangalore and you'll come to know that the people here don't have any Brains. Anonymous' earlier comment has explained the IQ of Bangaloreans.
Even the tree-lined Jayanagar 5th block, does not have any greenery when viewed from Google Maps. It is a complete concrete jungle. The old Bangalore is gone forever.
Bangalore is completely ruined by none other than the people living over there.
IIsc has predicted that Bangalore will become a Dead City within the next 3 years.
I hope that Karnataka does not focus on the growth of Mysore and Mangalore and spoil other places in the State.
I have left Bangalore for obvious reasons.
The traffic is insane and arguably the WORST in the world, not just in India.
There is dust and smoke all over Bangalore. Waste management is a failure, with some of the BBMP Garbage collectors throwing the collecting Garbage in vacant compounds. Then there is burning of garbage in open places at night. Lakes are filled with TOXIC foam and are used as construction sites.
Asthma and lung related diseases are prevalent in this city. 1 out of every 4 Bangaloreans suffer from Asthma.
Visit this city or any Q&A, blogs website related to Bangalore. You'll find 1 thing in common: BOASTING.
That's right. There is a lot of bragging and boasting regarding Bangalore. People are happy to stay in this awful city. You'll hear a lot of bragging such as
1. Garden city
2. Pensioner's Paradise
3. Green City
4. Bangalore is awesome city, but outsider's are spoiling it.
So with this mentality and ZERO PLANNING, you can come to your conclusion as to where Bangalore is headed for.
In reality this is one of the WORST cities to live.
Very polluted and no cleanliness at all. This city is giving good competition to Mumbai and Delhi
I'm glad that I don't stay in Bangalore.
The roads are thick with diesel fumes and dust. You can visibly air pollution in most places. You can't ever see bright sunshine, and it is always hazy. In most western countries it would have been a public health crisis, but here the public seems horribly uninformed, and you can even see middle class and well educated people with their young children braving the roads unprotected, where the pollution is probably several orders worse.
To all posters here, saying ride a bike or go do something, I don't think any individual action (other than go live someplace else) can make a difference, what is need is Government regulation, and enforcing the rules, and there seems to be a little of it.
Go to Thailand so displined to keep the city cleaned and well maintained, we need to learn many things. Individual state government adopt policy we can have good and cleaned healthy environment

I request those who use cars to use them only when minimum of 3 people are going in the car. Also check you vehicle regularly for pollution control in pollution checking centres. I think heavy trucks need to be allowed to move only between 11 PM and 5 AM.
I do not own a vehicle, I use public transport even though it is extremely difficult and crowded. I promise I will remain my whole life without an own vehicle which can pollute, If I must use vehicle then I will use bicycle.
