All about silicon city – namma Bengaluru

Fitness via smoke breaks

As he took a deep drag on his third cigarette for the day, he tapped his fitness watch and figured that he was done with 6000 steps. “Just two smoke breaks and I will meet my fitness goal of 10000 steps” he said. Jeez, fitness is smokin’ in the sillycon city. #sillyconCity (#147)

Craters

In my locality, after a long time, we had roads. A public sector company decided to  change their high voltage overhead line to underground. BWSSB (water company) decided to split the roads in the centre of many roads to lay new pipes. Now it is craters everywhere and we are back to living in the place we came from. The moon. High living in sillycon city. #sillyconCity (#153)

Holiday

As a young boy at school he was very happy when some famous person died, as the school declared holiday. Now as an adult, when he went his office (legislative assembly), his leader said we are all going for a picnic to resort.  Don’t you love sillycon city, where childhood is never lost? #sillyconCity (#152)

Resort aaram

How I wish I was a politician today in namma sillycon state. Oh, the joy of relaxing in the resort, playing cricket, eating good food, no emails or phone and granted permission by the Supreme court to skip Vidhana Soudha for work. Sakkath aaram in sillycon city. #sillyconCity (#151)

Politician pujas

When it is no-confidence motion in namma state, leaders are busy performing pujas in various temples confident that God is on their side.  Poor God, he can’t run away to a resort and hide from sillycon city politicians. #sillyconCity (#150)

Praying

Dropping off his kid at school, he returned home riding his bike in the wrong direction of the busy one-way main road. When he saw the Ganesha temple, he stopped and prayed. For the motorists who are coming opposite him, perhaps? No dearth of idiots in sillycon city. #sillyconCity (#149)

A lovely morning walk

The soft breeze of a cool morning rustles the leaves of a majestic old tree letting the sun rays through, to warm the dog lazing on the road. Oh, a charming lazy quietness, just peace.  The Bangalore of yesteryears magically pops during my early morning walk in neighbourhood only to become sillycon as I turn into the main road. #sillyconCity (#146)

Laptop

Share autos is where the human side of digital Namma Bengaluru shines. Everybody is using laptop while being driven. Well each one is on other’s lap. A different kind of jam in sillycon city. #sillyconCity (#145)
