Shaping Bangalore's periphery - before its too late silkboard - 20-NOV-2011
Our city, Bengaluru has a core, and periphery. Let us define the area bound between Outer Ring Road as the core, and beyond as periphery. If you look back from nineties onwards, City planners cared for people to live in the core, and work in the periphery. |
