DLF to develop New Bangalore

Just when the JDS was supposed to pass on the baton of Chief Ministership to the BJP in Karnataka (whether they'll do it or not is a different question), comes the news that the government has awarded a whopping Rs.60,000 crore project to develop a new township on the outskirts of Bangalore to DLF. H.D. Deve Gowda, the JDS chief, is not reputed for developmental works. More famous for putting spanners in the NICE corridor and the international airport (BIAL), this action looks swift, rather fishy. Is there more to it than meets the eye, or am I turning into a conspiracy theorist?

Sreesanth and his heroics

S. Sreesanth makes a complete idiot of himself (yet again). Ex-captain Rahul Dravid had to put up a sorry face to Andrew Symonds in this Kochi one-dayer. I couldn't stop laughing at this photo. Hence, decided to post it here.
