Residents openly break the law to put up a gate at a public road in the heart of Bangalore's urban centre

Apartment residents in the heart of Bangalore have installed a gate and guards to illegally bar public access to their road.

Pappanna Street across St. Marks Road, just a half a stone's throw from M G Road, is a busy public thoroughfare, housing a Wipro office, Orchid restaurant, and a Citibank ATM.

A guard stops you at the gate when you try to enter the street. He lets you in only after he is satisfied with your reply to his queries.

Vaswani Solitaire and Sterling Enclave are the apartments on the road, and they are unhappy with the public using what they illegally consider their own space.

"The gate is placed for security," said a manger of Vaswani Solitaire who wouldn't give us his name. "We can't let everybody in as it disturbs our residents."
