Techies in India’s IT capital want the new government in Karnataka to do a lot more to address the mobility problem in the city, with thrust on easing traffic on high-density roads, quick completion of expansion of metro rail network and deploying a large number of electric buses to improve public transport, says information technology industry veteran T V Mohandas Pai.

“We want the Metro to be completed and expand fast to 250 km,” the Aarin Capital Chairman told PTI, adding that there is a need to decongest 12 high-density roads. Pai said it’s a wrong perception that techies don’t vote in large numbers.
