India looks for new Bengalurus as its Silicon Valley goes downhill

"The extent of water surface in Bengaluru during 1973 was 2,324 hectares. Over the last 50 years, due to reckless concretization, the water surface has shrunk considerably. Of the remaining water bodies, 98% of lakes are encroached upon and 90% of them are fed with untreated sewage or industrial effluents. Naturally, this has impacted the recharge of the groundwater table as well," IISc's Prof TV Ramachandra had told TOI.

If they buiild more "lake-view" apartments, there will be no more lakes left, not that there are many left.

Introducing "Sobha Lake DreamView", now you can dream of a lake view in a 777sqft 2BHK, starting at a LOW price of 1.9cr!

Pls come to Gurgaon and Noida.
Airports are nearby, infra is what BLR couldn't imagine. Yes polution which lasts for 2-3 months a year. I hope we solve that.

And weather isn't the finest. :(

Been in Bangalore all my life. These articles pop up every 2-3 years with some clickbait-y claim and attach IISc’s name to make it seem less click baity. Fact is Bangalore has grown and will grow. Crores of investments are already on the paper for the next 20-30 years. This is just some fresher journalist trying to make a mark, earning some bread. Don’t put off your plans of buying a home seeing these articles 😂

I think in the next 20-30 year hyd may be in a much better position, and a lot of big companies will be in Noida.

Even though Mumbai is crowded, it never has water problems. We have water all day in rainy and winter season, and during summers, we get it for 12 hours.
