Why banglore is so unplanned

That is their plan. Having unorganised infra incentivizes outsiders to go to other cities and then then locals can play kannada kannada daily without hearing Hindi words /s

Unplanned is not accurate. East Bangalore is not entire Bangalore. Go to Jayanagar, Malleswaram, Rajajinagar and other places where locals live and see it for yourself. And also compare the cost of living.

Coming to East Bangalore, here are the reasons

1. KIADB designed the plots for industries and did their job but BDA did not plan for housing around.
2. The 2015 BDA master plan of BDA was rejected as it did not included transportation and there is none currently to hold anyone accountable.
3. There is a reason for this. Without master plan, the builders can freely build on any land with only local approvals and they are as good for a small village.
4. If there was a master plan, the govt body needs to calculate th number of people for the road width, water pipe width, sewage capacity, plots for schools, hospitals, parks and other common amenities and then enforce the number of apartments. Now it is a blank cheque for builders.
5. And people coming from Mumbai or Delhi found these apartments cheap compared to their home towns, lapped then up.
6. East Bangalore due to geography has multiple lakes connected by rajakaulves. And these lakes and rajakaulves are supposed to have buffer zones to avoid flooding.
7. Due to 2 loop holes in the law and land procedure, you can create documents for any lake and builders can build on it. The buyers do not care to check all the legalities, hey I am not the only one buying so the risk is not soley mine this kind of attitude
8. Due to sky high demand for rent, capitalists build 6 floors for PG on a small plot of land. The legal limitation is only 2 floors. Imaginge the water, road, sewage having to support these number of additional people

So whom do you blame? The loopholes in law, the buyers who buy without legal validation, the capitalists who don't care for law, the people who rent these apartments/pg, the Govt officials who do not have a reference plan to enforce?

Bangalore had a population explosion like no other Indian city. City has grown drastically in last 20 years and that's why infra is disorganized.

It's not as been a metro city since old times like Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata.

I don’t understand why people keep on complaining about bangalore again and again isnt it pretty simple if someone doesnot like arent they free to leave and move to whichever city they feel suits best for them
am I missing something?

Every weekend we (GVers) solve one Bengaluru related issue 🤣
