Hello and welcome to DH Radio.
Six years after the then Congress Government in Karnataka dropped the steel flyover project between Bengaluru's Chalukya Circle and Hebbal after widespread public protests, the controversial project is back again.
The BBMP has now proposed to conduct a feasibility study to build the flyover. The ruling BJP, then in the Opposition, had strongly objected to the project.
In this episode, DH Radio's Rasheed Kappan speaks to Tara Krishnaswamy, CoFounder of Citizens for Bengaluru (CfB) that had spearheaded the campaign against the project; urbanist V Ravichander and Priya Chetty Rajagopal, whose activism had amplified the voices opposed to the controversial flyover.
