Looking back, Looking ahead
|
|
It was a year that saw politics overshadow public good, say Asha Krishnaswamy and Vijesh Kamath as they sift through the archives. Politicians spewed venom and a former prime minister wrote letters even as the common man was left to deal with an unprecedented
downpour on his own. In 2006, as Bangalore becomes Bengalooru will its roads still be filled with potholesu and trafficu, they wonder.

Of human bonds
|
|
Mushrooming old age homes, increasing divorces, parents working long hours and joint families breaking down into nuclear families have all contributed to the contamination of
human values, of love and of human bonds, discovers
R Venkatesh.

Bengalooru beckons?
|
|
Bangalore is all set to become Bengalooru. The names of other towns in Karnataka are also to be changed.
Deccan Herald asked its readers their opinion on this decision to change names. Most of the readers feel that a semantic shift would not result in changing the fortunes of either the cities or their denizens. The government should focus on urban infrastructure instead of indulging in this name game, they feel.
