bangalore is nice name. with name it shows the style of the city. forget about other cities changing name. later there will a news that India will changed to Bharat
Changing name of Bangalore is purely a political gimstick. Name Bangalore is known world around, its good only for the people living in karnataka will like Bangaluru and not other wise. The flavour of Bangalore is much appreciated than Bangaluru.
yes i agree with this statement ..tht this is only political affairs? Renaming name ..whts the use..instead it will create confusions ... just like earlier in delhi CP rename created as rajiv chowk .. stil everbdy called CP ..

If you continue to stay here, your name will be changed to "KINGU". Run from here...
why should any city in India be named the way british wanted to it be. does british do the same if we pronounce london as some thing like londonnu.There is nothing wrong indoing so as the names of place represent the culture and language of the (place)state
I oppose changing name of bangalore to bangalooru.. I dont undertands yy this politicians going back through these silly topics, insted of solving various issues revolving round the state. The name bangalore has lots of respect around the corner of this world and even peoples from street to much high businesss deligates much familer. We have solid examples of Mumbai and Kolkatha in front of us, which was not able to do anything much hyped as per politicians..
So plz try to solve out rest of problems insted of waisting crores of ruppes for this name change.
for us it has always been Bengalooru, becos thats we way we pronounce it. its better the rest of the world do it the same way. don't care what others say we are proud of it.
Now the tax that bangaloreans or should I say banglooruites pay will go into changing all the places where the name Bangalore is mentioned to Bangalooru. Dont think non bangaloorites are the only ones who pay, the central govt offices will also have some spending to do. All this for what ? To push the colonial legacy under the carpet ?. Indians should do better by working hard and doing more than what the British did. Unless we prove ourselves that we can do something on our own, everyone would still believe that we are what we are because it was the British who did it for us, changing names dont mean anything, afterall what there in a name ?
if this is the case then all the cities and towns in india have to be changed and spelled according to their own style of language. By now why we need a change for our IT hub. leave it as it is and it sounds good.
