Influxtructure

There has been a lot of talk, or should I say FUD (Fear, Uncertainity, Doubt) over Wipro and Infosys showing signs of moving out of the Silicon Valley of India, Bangalore. Bangalorites, it seems, are already facing problems at galore with infrastructure (in terms of public transport system, roads, flyovers), high rentals, over all high cost of living, highest petrol and diesel prices, high prices of cars and add to that highest road tax on vehicles (a whopping 10% of the ex-showroom price!!!)

Well, as a person who has recently "rushed out" of Pune, let me tell you that the infrastructure problems exist there too. The solution is to invest rather than infest.
