On Wednesday, BJP Yuva Morcha President Tejasvi Surya tweeted, "Met with the Deputy CM and Bengaluru Development Minister DK Shivakumar today and discussed important issues relating to Bengaluru city’s infrastructure...Requested him to consider building a multi-level fly-over over the same route along with the Metro Phase - 3 which would effectively expand the carriage capacity of the road from Vega City Mall to Nayandahalli."

 

The BJP MP also discussed the proposal of building tunnels in Bengaluru with Deputy CM on Wednesday. 

 

"We discussed his proposal of building tunnel roads in Bengaluru. I suggested that the idea of mass rapid transit train systems instead of tunnel roads must be encouraged as traffic congestion is never addressed by building more roads," he said.
