Bangalore. Garden City, Silicon
Valley, Pensioner's Paradise, Air-conditioned city, Pub City, Science City
etc. etc. This city has so many epithets that its been adorned with another
epithet 'The City of Apellations'. Known for its salubrious climate, gardens,
pubs and software companies, Bangalore, the capital of the Indian state
of Karnataka is one of the most cosmopolitan cities in India and the fastest
growing city in Asia. Home to some of the best gardens(Lalbagh, Cubbon
Park, Cariappa Park etc.) in the country, its also base to the finest research
institutions(Indian Institute of Science, Indian Space Research Organisation,
National Aerospace Laboratories, Defence Research and Development Organisation,
Aeronautical Development Establishment etc.) of the nation. It also houses
the Indian operations of most of India's and the world's leading
Information Technology corporates(Infosys, WIPRO, Oracle, Lucent, Motorola,
Cisco, Intel, Sun, Apple, IBM, Hewlett-Packard, Texas Instruments, Novell,
Nortel, SAP, Compaq, Dell, GE etc.). Its also home to me. In the wake of
unprecedented growth, Bangalore is struggling to retain its charm of yesteryears
and is faced with increasing pollution and urban chaos.
