Bangalore�s new airport hijacked even before take-off
This is how India�s Silicon Valley is being grounded. It takes a person no less
than the Prime Minister himself to step in to push the first greenfield airport
in Bangalore�although it�s been a full four months after the Centre signed the
crucial agreement clearing its construction. That agreement itself came 11
years after the idea was first floated, shot down several times, faced the
embarrassment of two ��official land ceremonies�� then got caught in a tortuous
land-acquisition process that finally paved the way for the Karnataka
Government�s clearance.
