Bengaluru Traveller Thanks DigiYatra For Saving His Flight
Last night, 2 hrs 15 mins from Indiranagar to the airport. All because of a little rain.
Had given up on making it to the flight. Blaming politicians in my head. Wondering how we ever expect world-class talent to move here.

The Internet Has A Lot To Say
The post highlighting Bengaluru’s poor road infrastructure has gone viral online. This is not the first time commuters have complained about the city’s traffic and roads. Many users have shared how it can take them hours to cover short distances.
One user commented, “But Bengaluru is Bengaluru. Even with horrible traffic and chaos around, I still choose to stay in the heart of the city, Indiranagar.”
Another user taunted, “Sir, please wait. A tunnel will be built in 50 years.”
“Had the same plight yesterday, barely made it to my flight! But then, post check-in, it was a breeze because of DigiYatra,” another netizen added.
One user wrote, “While traffic congestion due to lack of infra is a real problem, half of the problem can be solved if the roads are smooth and pothole-free. How hard is it to solve this problem? Most of the African countries have seen better roads.”
