What is it about?
Bangalore is one of the fastest-growing cities in India. Challenges are apparent and part of any development, which applies to urbanisation too. In this paper, we discuss various significant challenges in Bangalore. We attempted to identify the contributors for multiple significant issues and possible solutions for those issues. Inputs received from 373 respondents were analysed and interpreted them to understand the contemporary scenario about various topics in Bangalore. We attempted to identify the topmost influencers for each topic and most positive impacted solutions. Finally, recommendations for each issue has been given, which can be reviewed and considered by BBMP authority and other government agencies

Why is it important?
Citizens who are living in Bangalore at least for 15 years could easily compare and realise an enormous difference in today‘s road, city expansion, population expansion, water availability, level of traffic and environmental pollution. Bengaluru has developed a manifold but along with other challenges. Multiple research reports say that Bangalore may not be fit for a human being in the coming years. So it is critical to identify the problems and possible solutions to overcome the issues
Perspectives
Urbanisation is unavoidable due to the development in education technology, employment, business opportunities and increase in population. Growth in any sector should result positively to society. Let it be an industrial development, housing opportunities and transportation; they should be improved to a specific limit. Exceeding the capacity may invite a lot of issues. Bangalore developed to a great extent in the few decades. However, there are inevitably a lot of challenges, as discussed in the previous chapters. Finding solutions for such issues is an urgent need. Otherwise, it may lead to disaster and Bangalore may lose its legacy. To prevent such situation BBMP and other government agencies should take necessary actions so that Bangalore city would continue with its legacy as ‘Garden city’ and ‘Silicon Valley of India’.
