NaMo does not believe in learning from past experiences and mistakes !
Sans any doubt, decisions are guided by political, populist and subjective
considerations ! These should be taken on the basis of rational, just and
viable grounds following sound expert technical advice !
Ironically, the decisions of Demonetisation and GST did not find favour the

Bangalore has crumbling infrastructure. The people of bangalore without bothering about development voted for a party that tied up with small party to keep out the party which hsd the largest seats.

So in end no infra for bangalore which generates all tax but no development
