A very shocking news came to light from Bengaluru, a half-constructed bus shelter vanished from a busy road. At a cost of Rs. 10 lakh, the stainless steel building was being built on Cunningham Road. Nothing was spared when it came to the bus shelter’s roof, poles, and chairs.
The Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) looked after its maintenance. On September 30, N Ravi Reddy, the vice president of the transport organisation, reported the theft, prompting the police to launch an inquiry.
In accordance with Section 157 of the CrPC, the police have filed a report. The police is currently reviewing CCTV footage gathered from local buildings.
Social media users have reacted to the news in great numbers, expressing surprise at this peculiar theft. Some of their remarks included criticism of the city’s deficient security measures.
“Cunning robbers stole a bus stop worth 10 lakhs on the Cunningham Road in Indian Green Infotech Valley, the best planned city, i.e., Bengaluru,” wrote another user.
“A stainless steel bus shelter worth ₹ 10 lakhs went missing soon after its erection in Bengaluru’s prime location, Cunningham Road. Speaks volumes about the inefficiency of police,” another user commented.
