Following India Today’s reporting on Bangalore’s pothole menace, Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar joins a reality check on the city’s streets. He stated the government is seeking a permanent solution, not just temporary fixes, setting an October 30 deadline for pothole-free roads. Plans include full resurfacing and concrete ‘white topping’ for key junctions and roads. Contractor accountability is addressed with a three-year ‘defect liability period’. The Deputy Chief Minister also discussed long-term projects like a tunnel and the Bangalore Business Corridor to decongest the city. Responding to concerns about businesses leaving, he said, "Only Bangalore can make money. No other place for this country." The report also covers coordination between departments and criticism from the opposition.
