Bengluru is a weird city with weird autorities who are more snobbish than the Americans. They have built a "world class" airport 50 kms out of Bangalore in some village where there are not even proper roads.Of course there are airports in other places well beyond the city but they would be beside a highway and well connected by road and rail.There is no warmth in bangalore with all indifferent people who feel they are doing you some favor if they talk to you.

Suraj is not saying anything wrong. Bangalore is no more a good city. People are getting rude and dont behave properly especially some outsiders who have come and settled there. It is neither safe city as crimes and terrorist activities are on the rise. Corruption and ever increasing real estate prices have made it most unsuitable for the kannadigas themselves. Traffic is terrible of course. What is good in Bangalore except weather?

If Suraj and You are talking from the perspective of people being rude, crimes, real estate etc... YES I agree. But I dont agree about the inconvineance to go to new airport or airport itself.

hey I'm a kannadiga, i feel proud that we are so cosmopolitan than so many other cities/stated; we tolerate almost everyone and everything; you probably are referring to immigrants from other states who are rude, intolerant etc.. are you? they don't count in as bangaloreans

if you talk the way you write, nobody would want to talk to you. People of Karnataka are tolerant and friendly, it is the outsiders that are giving a bad name.

Bangaluru International Airport is a world class and india's best airport.This opinion is not a illogical,I am giving this opinion after having experience at Mumbai,Hyderabad,Delhi airports.The other airport which is good in service is Madras airport. The harrasing customs officials in Mumbai which every passenger experiences is a world known fact. Bangaloreans always welcomed people from other states and adsorbed them in their warm culture.Its entirely wrong if some one says that they are indifferent people.Today what is Bangalore is not because of politicians and Goverments but because of Bangalorean's dedicated effort toward development,if any north indian sees bangalore he will develop a willingness of permanently settling down here.More then 5 lakhs north Indian families have allready settled here without any harassment from anyone,touriststhe world over they Knows India and after India they knows other name is Bangaluru,may be Mr Kohli is jealous of Bangalore's development and sarcastically he is remarking that Bangalorians are indifferent people

I have seen both Calcutta and Bombay international airports quite good. A brand new airport shud be better than previous ones - no wonder. Also, previously Indian Govt did not have so much of money.
But the planning of B'lore airport is hopeless as B;lore's own misguided wine-women-loving young men/women.
