Karnataka Budget 2025 focuses on Bengaluru's development with metro expansion, road infrastructure, Cauvery Stage-6 project, and IT sector growth. Key takeaways inside!
The Karnataka Budget 2025 presented by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah includes several key allocations and initiatives for Bengaluru. The budget focuses on infrastructure development with Rs 1,500 crore allocated for white-topping roads, Rs 30,000 crore for the Namma Metro expansion, and Rs 1,250 crore for the Bengaluru Suburban Rail Project. Additionally, there are plans to enhance public transport with 1,300 new electric buses and the introduction of a new bus stand at Byappanahalli.
