We are indeed the second class citizens, or are we citizens actually? With little or no empowerment citizens do not feel a sense of belongingness to the place. It seemed to happen only once , when S M Krishna's government along with the vanguards of industry, knowledge and activism had initiated BATF. We, living in Delhi envied people coming out on the streets of Bangalore and raising their voices in protest, support and awareness of issues. It was told to us that Bangalore will not be developed on the lines of Suburbs and Satellite cities as in the US, while it would be developed as Paris is, walking friendly and neighbourhood approach. With the demise of the brilliant project the dream was gone. Bangalore is on its way to expansion like Delhi and Bombay, with no involvement of its citizens. Even a city like Caracass in Venezuela with its communist approach has given so much power to its citizens. Favelas or slums of Brazil have been given power to resurrect themselves, which they are doing. There seems no end and no beginning to the current state and its remedy.
