    Comprehensive Traffic & Transportation Plan for Bangalore Chapter 1 - Introduction CHAPTER ––– 1 INTRODUCTION 1.11.11.1 GENERAL BACKGROUND 1.1.1 Bangalore is the fifth largest metropolis (6.5 m in 2004) in India and is one of the fastest growing cities in Asia. It is also the capital of State of Karnataka. The name Bangalore is an anglicised version of the city's name in the Kannada language, Bengaluru. It is globally recognized as IT capital of India and also as a well developed industrial city. 1.1.2 Bangalore city was built in 1537 by Kempegowda. During the British Raj, Bangalore developed as a centre for colonial rule in South India. The establishment of the Bangalore Cantonment brought in large numbers of migrant Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh and North Indian workers for developing and maintaining the infrastructure of the cantonment. New extensions were added to the old town by creating Chamarajpet, Seshadripuram, Nagasandra, Yediyur, Basavanagudi, Malleswaram, Kalasipalyam and Gandhinagar upto 1931. During the post independence period Kumara Park and Jayanagar came into existence. The cantonment area covers nearly dozen revenue villages, which included Binnamangala, Domlur, Neelasandra and Ulsoor to name a few. In 1960, at Binnamangala, new extension named Indiranagar was created. The defence establishments and residential complexes are in part of the core area. It is a radial pattern city growing in all directions. The Bangalore city which was 28.85 sq. Km. in 1901 increased to 174.7 sqkm in 1971 to 272 sqkm in 1986 and presently it has expanded to nearly 437 sqkm.

  • Last Mile Connectivity of “Namma Metro” Purple Line Corridor
    Assessing Metro rail system as a means of mitigation strategy to Climate change Foreword Bengaluru famed as the garden city has gained global acclaim for development in Information technology and Biotechnology. Due to its fast development and urbanization in recent years, the city, which was an air conditioned city around two decades back has slowly warmed up and with exponential increase in automobiles in the city roads, it has also gained the tag of being a highly polluted city. To reduce the vehicular density and increase the commuter comforts and also to bring in climate resilience in the city, the first Metro rail project in Bengaluru was planned in two corridors. The East-West Corridor (18.10km) from Baiyappanahalli (East) - Mysore Road (West) was commissioned in 2016. As per The Times of India report, August 4th, 2017, Bengaluru Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) has seen a drop of 2-3% in its revenue after Phase 1 of Namma Metro became fully operational in June, 2017. The Metro ridership has also increased to 34% from June 2016 to July 2017. The study entitled, “Assessing Metro Rail System as a means of Mitigation Strategy to Climate Change” conducted by the Centre for Climate Change in EMPRI during 2016-17 has assessed the utility and benefits from a commuter perception angle especially with reference to the economic and social perspectives. The commuter’s methods of reaching to the station are also evaluated. Time saved in travel and reduction in exposure to polluted air in the road are the major gains but there are some teething problems in relation to last mile connectivity.

  • Urban Water Supply: Contestations and Sustainability Issues in Greater Bangalore
    Journal of Politics & Governance, Vol. 3, No. 4, October-December 2014 Urban Water Supply: Contestations and Sustainability Issues in Greater Bangalore Srihari Hulikal Muralidhar Department of Humanities and Social Sciences, Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai Abstract The move towards privatization of public utilities such as water sector in India, particularly in the metropolitan areas, has gone hand in hand with the growing gap between demand and supply of water. With fiscal discipline being the key mantra of successive governments, cost recovery as a policy goal is prioritized over access to water and sanitation. This paper is a critical assessment of Greater Bangalore Water and Sanitation Project (GBWASP), which aims to provide piped water to more than twenty lakh residents in Greater Bangalore. The implementation of the Karnataka Groundwater Act, 2011, and the debates around it are also examined in detail. The four main arguments are: huge gap between rhetoric and ground realities when it comes to the implementation of GBWASP and the Groundwater Act; the contestations between the elected representatives and bureaucrats have implications for urban governance; the axes of dispute between the Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board and citizens have changed over time; the politics of negotiating access to water also bring questions of sustainability to the fore. Keywords: Borewell, Privatization, Water [This paper was presented at the 2nd National Conference on Politics & Governance, NCPG 2014 held at India International Centre Annexe, New Delhi on 3 August 2014] Introduction The Greater Bangalore Water and Sanitation Project (GBWASP) was launched in 2003 in Bangalore and is implemented by the Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB).

  • Title: Shri Pawan Kumar Bansal Presented a Statement of the Estimated Receipt and Expenditure of the Government of India for the Year 2013-14 in Respect of Railways
    > Title: Shri Pawan Kumar Bansal presented a statement of the estimated receipt and expenditure of the Government of India for the year 2013-14 in respect of Railways. THE MINISTER OF RAILWAYS (SHRI PAWAN KUMAR BANSAL): . Madam Speaker, I rise to present before this august House the Revised Estimates for 2012-13 and a statement of estimated receipts and expenditure for 2013-14. ...(Interruptions) अय महोदया : या कर रह े ह, अब आप शोर य मचा रह े ह ...(Interruptions) SHRI PAWAN KUMAR BANSAL: I do so with mixed feelings crossing my mind. While I have a feeling of a colossus today, it is only ephemeral and is instantaneously overtaken by a sense of humility. Democracy gives wings to the wingless, cautioning us all the while, that howsoever high or wide our flight may be, we must remain connected to the ground. For giving me this opportunity, I am grateful to the Hon'ble Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh and the UPA Chairperson, Smt. Sonia Gandhi and pay my homage to the sacred memory of Sh. Rajiv Gandhi who introduced me to the portals of the highest Temple of Indian democracy. Madam Speaker, as I proceed, my thought goes to a particularly severe cold spell during the recent winter, when it was snowing heavily in Kashmir valley, and suspension of road and air services had brought life to a grinding halt. Photographs appearing in Newspapers showing a train covered with snow emerging from a similar white background, carrying passengers travelling over the recently commissioned Qazigund - Baramulla section instilled in me a sense of immense pride.

The miserable condition of the farmers is largely attributed to those who have been in power for long. I, however, want to place on record that our Government has been making every effort to double the farmers' income.
