Karnataka Large, Medium Industries and Infrastructure Development Minister R V Deshpande pitches for Bengaluru to be the second capital of India.
In a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Minister raised the need for a second capital for the country and said “best suited to take on the mantle’ and listed out the key advantages of making Bengaluru the second capital city of India.
“Bengaluru city situated in the southern region, well away from natural calamities and extreme weather conditions. A city with a diverse population of professionals and industries spanning across various fields of business. Bengaluru with its multifaceted lifestyle, industrial development and technological innovations is in prime position to do just that,” Deshpande wrote to Modi.
“India needs a second capital very urgently and Bengaluru is best place to fulfill that role. A country the size and scale of India cannot be managed from one location, especially when the government is gearing up for a paradigmatic and radical change in terms of depth of governance, structural reforms, national reconstruction and international partnerships,” Deshpande added.
