Good. Calling Bengaluru the tech hub when it's just only a few districts which house the most tech parks and companies is misleading. Better to spread it out, especially letting the rapacious landlords suffer for the same.
For similar reasons, even Amex built their new main building closer to Manesar within NCR
Now that area will start seeing increase in cost 🤣
