This morning saw a cohort of more than 5000 techies, taking to the road
at important junctions in Marathahalli, Kundalahalli gate, Graphite
India junction and EPIC zone, to voice their concerns with placards, and
forming a human chain.
Launching the #SaveWhitefield campaign, IT firm employees who work
and live in Whitefield have taken a step towards bringing about the
attention of the ruling party of Karnataka, Congress, to the plight of
that part of Bengaluru, which is touted to be the hub of development.
However the reality is far from the projected idea of a uber modern
information technology park. From damaged roads, lack of cleanliness
owing to open drains to a deteriorating quality of life, tolerance of
those working and living in Whitefield has reached a tipping point more
so as the government has done little to improve the situation around
Bengaluru's ITPL area.
While the political debate continues, government representatives have finally agreed to set up a meeting to address the situation later in the day.
