A new city for new jobs could be interesting! Thoughts?

Khir city, sounds delicious & fattening. Guaranteed to have some nuts.

Fact Check: KHIR city won't work. The INC is in power. When was the last time they delivered on the governance front? Let alone KHIR, they single-handedly got the metro stranded for a good 10 years.

Never works. Most planned city projects (greenfield) in India to set up some industry have failed. I am hopeful though.

Here's how it works in Bangaluru / Karnataka : 1. Politicians and their kin will first buy the land in KHIR city 2. Corrupt bureaucrats who are serving 1) faithfully will be next 3. BDA officials, clerks, peons working in Registrar's office, BBMP etc. 4. Real estate mafia 5. Normos and software engineers So depending on the completion of this cycle, we can expect this khir in our plate.

Electronic City was created for the same purpose. It someone ended up like how it is now 🫠

wait ... isn't it already done? what's the Whitefield then?

Are metro bana lo pehle bc.. yeh city banake aur traffic badhaege kya bkl.

Such cities are good for large MNCs and IT companies only. All startups, banks, HULs of the world etc gonna stick to T1 cities only

Bhai airport se satt ke bana do, taake main city tak travel time 1+h na ho

Let's see how they solve the chicken and egg problem (available job opportunities vs prospective employees) for this project. Many such projects fail due to this problem.

I hope they execute it well. Noida is a pretty successful example, serving as extension to Delhi, and at the same time it's a self-sufficient planned city. The metro work has to go on quite aggressively. The progress on ORR has been pretty good since I relocated to Bengaluru two years back.

Builder perhaps not ablw to sell in Bangalore hence making a new citi not against this but i qould like to see plan , regulations else it would be another Bangalore soon

You gotta have Gujaratis to copy a GIFT city

Both Whitefield Area and Ecity were developed cities. It was developed in somewhere near year 2000s It has worked. Let's hope this will also work !!!!

80k new jobs in this market?

Metro baan nahi Rahi inse... nai city banane chale

80k direct software jobs is just 4 buildings of 20 floors and maybe about 3-4acres land. So not sure how that can be a city. Even in pharma, if it's desk jobs. It's the same

But ain't half banglore already situated on the outskirts of banglore

Offering a different perspective here as a 2nd generation Bangalorean. This 'city', whenever it opens will be a force multiplier to the larger metropolitan area economy. There's a good chance it'll open along the Bangalore - Mysore expressway, which will very soon extending it Mysore- Bangalore - Chennai expressway (Mangalore even?). There will also be a bullet train corridor running alongside the expressway. The economic benefits that will come from this logistical buildup will be massive. The macros will massively support the growth in the region. With added national emphasis on increasing manufacturing footprint, to balance away from an already services heavy portfolio. Let's not forget that the larger Mysore area had a relatively heavy industrial footprint in the country's nascent years. And given the massively underserved demographics of our country and heavily overpopulated existing cities of our country, any new city opening up will be a massive game changer for any early mover there. Sure, we will have the usual suspect of sharks circling in at the first prospect. But in the end, this would would be more beneficial than you can expect it ti

The only job it'll create is for the cab and taxi mafia who instead of taking 1500 inr for an airport ride would now take 3K+ for the same airport ride to the same shitty city with crumbling infra.
