Namma Bengalurina Clover Leaf Interchange..
Guess which is the hottest spot in Bangalore now? It's the newly inaugurated Clover Leaf Interchange along the 9km stretch b/w Mysore Road & Kanakapura Road. Check out this pic taken during it's construction final stages.


Firstly let me tell you abt a cloverleaf interchange (if you didn't happen to know abt it already). A cloverleaf interchange provides unrestricted movement at an intersection., which means that you don't have to wait at those long, boring signals anymore. People going left have t jus use the exit ramp on the left and take the left turn. And people intending to take a right turn must first cross the intersection & then take a LEFT!!. Yes, you need to take the left side elevated ramp in order to turn right. Take a closer look at this pic below & you will understand what I am telling.

To take a right, continue driving on the left, cross the intersection & turn towards the elevated on the left which takes a 270° turn & merges into the intersecting road. Isn't it great!! No signals & no stopping anywhere. It' much more special, since it's in our very own Bangalore (although the pic just above is not the one from Bangralore). The credit certainly gone to NICE LIMITED for providing such a beautiful piece of roadway. I am hoping against hope that our state government would stop creating hurdles in NICE's way & allow them to complete this project there by paving a better way for travelling. Now for the best part of this blog, an on-site pic from the cloverleaf interchange at Bangalore.
It is not awesome. :)

MY DREAM PRIME MINISTER.. remains a dream..

The charismatic Pramod Mahajan is no more. There is not much i know about him, except that he was exceptionally good at what he was, being a politician. Being a very good orator he knew the art of winning hearts where ever he went.
Ever since I have known him, I wanted him to be our Prime Minister. Look at Bill Clinton, Tony Blair & Vladimir Putin, they were & are the perfect people for their posts. Their on screen presence, decision making skills, captivating people with speeches, etc. all these traits took them to great heights. Not only people of their country but also people around the globle follow them very closely. Mahajan too belonged to that category. I hoped that BJP would come to power again and then Mahajan would get a chance to lead our country.
But alas! this would remain a dream in the hearts of many. Well, the least we can do is to hope that a much better statesman would govern us & take our country to great heights. Great heights!! Its too much to ask for now considering the present political scenario. But still, what do I lose in dreaming of a bright India.
