Gottigere
Bengaluru: In yet more mindless development, the BBMP, which should be working to preserve the city's heritage and helping it conserve water, is widening a road right over a century old pond or kalyani in Gottigere, destroying it with no qualms whatsoever.
When confronted, officers of the civic body maintained the project to widen the road in Bannerghatta had been underway for some time and there was no alternative that could save the ancient pond.
