Best of Bangalore

 

Jawaharlal Nehru 

"Bangalore is India's fututre city."   -Jawaharlal Nehru, (1899-1964), India's first Prime Minister

 

From a bowl of boiled beans to the giant city that has come from it, Bangalore has streched far beyond the four towers that Kempegowda II built to denote the boundaries. Pioneering in every field from Defense to Healthcare, it has created its own identity as one of the fastest growing cities of India. Attracting talent from across the world and with over 200,000 IT professionals working round the clock, Bangalore has become the destination for the who's who of the software industry.
