1 user has liked. Now that we have a new goverement, let us make a vision document and send it to our CM. Some things about this draft document - 1. It is city (urban) specific. I would like to say Bangalore specific, but strategy wise whatever is true for Bangalore is pretty much true for other cities in Karnataka as well. We will not cover rural problems or issues not directly about city governance (like judicial systems, this is a national issue) 2.

Sensex tanks 388 pts amid global selloff - Deccan Herald - Business

Wed, 22 May 2013 18:30:00 GMT

Key benchmark indices slumped on Thursday as world stocks tumbled after disappointing data from China and comments from the US Federal Reserve about tapering its stimulus programme stoked worries about slower global growth and less liquidity.

The popular Sensex at BSE was down 387.91 points or 1.93 per cent to 19,674.33, its lowest closing level since May 6, 2013. The 50-unit CNX Nifty at NSE was down 127.45 points or 2.09 per cent to 5,967.05.

Based on a total station survey done by Enzen Global in Aug. 2011, PNLIT got the BBMP to install a new diversion channel (DC) to harvest surface run off from the Brigade Millennium road into the lake.
