8 Years of Neglect: The Reality of Bengaluru’s Tech Corridor Connectivity
It is alarming to see that a crucial 5.7-kilometer lifeline—Gattahalli Main Road—has remained in a deplorable state for nearly eight years. Connecting Huskur Main Road to Sarjapur Main Road, this stretch is vital for commuters in the tech corridor, yet it remains a hazard.
Mitilesh Kumar, Founder of Civic Opposition of India, highlighted the severity of the situation in a recent Times of India report, stating, "The condition of Gattahalli Road is a complete disgrace... It looks even worse than the roads people saw back in the 1970s and 80s."
Residents are facing daily battles with slush, potholes, and traffic nightmares. Beyond the inconvenience, it’s a health and safety risk—from residents suffering backaches to school buses struggling through dangerous terrain.
As taxpayers, we deserve better than excuses about "lack of funds." It’s time for accountability and immediate action to fix this basic infrastructure.
