BENGALURU: The city’s investment in infrastructure development in the current financial year is the lowest in the past four years, a pointer to the dire financial position of the state government.
At Rs 860 crore, funds released by the government to BBMP for special infrastructure projects so far this year are a little over 40% of the Rs 2,129 crore provided during 2016-17 by the then Siddaramaiah-led Congress government. Such projects include laying new roads, building flyovers and drains.
