BENGALURU: The Bengaluru Innovation Report, released by IT-BT Minister Priyank Kharge on Wednesday, says Bengaluru is set to grow annually at 8.5% till 2035, far ahead that of Mumbai (6.6%) and Delhi (6.5%).

The report highlights why global tech giants are choosing Bengaluru to become the AI-Quantum Computing hotspot of India. As per the report there is a corporate cost advantage because the median annual salary of a software professional in Bengaluru was $12,000, which is substantially lower than its international peers. The cost of office space rent in Bengaluru is one third of that in Beijing. Additionally, 48% of the GCC talent pool in Bengaluru is engaged in high-end rolesengineering, research and development. Also the city has the most affordable housing and is the cheapest among leading global startup ecosystems in terms of cost of living. The report states that Bengaluru is Indias tech talent engine as it is the tech and human capital centre of the nation. The report says that women-led startups have prospered in Bengaluru-- the total capital raised by them in Bengaluru stood at $ 13.4 billion, the highest among all cities in India. Bengaluru is now the worlds fifth-largest unicorn hub. Of the 122 unicorns in India cumulatively valued at $ 353 billion, a total of 53 unicorns (startups valued at $ 1 billion) are from the city. Their combined valuation is estimated at Rs 1.70 lakh crore ($192 billion). Bengaluru-based unicorns contribute 42% of Indias total unicorn valuation. Bengaluru is also attracting soonicorns startups on the path to becoming unicorns like a magnet. The city is home to 39 soonicorns, ahead of Delhi-NCR (30) and Mumbai (21), reflecting Bengalurus dominance in nurturing world-class tech talent. GBA CHIEF OUTLINES CITYS NEW GOVERNANCE MODEL Bengaluru: At an interactive session during the Bengaluru Tech Summit, Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA) Chief Commissioner Maheshwar Rao joined Venk Krishnan, Founder & CEO of NuVentures, for an interaction on the citys governance, traffic challenges and future liveability. Krishnan acknowledged the citys remarkable global pull despite its infrastructure strain. People from all over the world want to move herefor the ecosystem, the warmth of the people, and the weather, he said, adding that even unicorn founders frustrated with traffic rarely relocate outside Bengaluru. Rao outlined the new administrative structure, created to make governance more agile. Bengaluru, earlier managed by a single municipal corporation, now has five corporations supported by the GBA, chaired by the Chief Minister. Coordination was our biggest gaproads repaired one day would be dug up the next. The GBA ensures all civic agencies work in harmony, he said. Addressing congestion, Rao said Bengaluru has 1.2 crore registered vehicles, with thousands added daily, making expanded public transport the citys best strategy.

Mumbai Diary | Fadnavis warning after Cabinet draft tampering

Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis is known as a strict and demanding administrator, yet some officers still try to meddle with his decisions. Recently, a senior officer altered a cabinet-approved draft and inserted clauses that served his own interests. When this came to Fadnaviss notice, he was stunned and immediately warned the officer for crossing the line. He said he would either start a departmental inquiry or an Anti-Corruption Bureau probe, with serious consequences such as suspension. People in Mantralaya say that when Fadnavis gets angry, the officer involved usually ends up with a weak post or a side posting. EC under fire over its confusing local poll order The Maharashtra Election Commission has again become a talking point for the wrong reasons. This time, it issued a resolution for nomination submissions but mistakenly attached the AB form used in local body elections. The A form confirms the official party candidate, while the B form lists the substitute candidate if the first one is disqualified. The commissions first resolution stated that both the main and substitute candidates would remain valid, which created confusion because a party cannot field two official candidates. After murmurs in the bureaucracy, a fresh order came on the last day of scrutiny. Power play resurfaces in secretarys appointment The ongoing power struggle in Maharashtra came to light again during the appointment process for a key post at the Slum Redevelopment Authority. Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, who handles the urban development department, sent a file recommending an officer close to him as the next SRA secretary. He expected CM Fadnavis to approve it. Instead, the file returned with a different name chosen by the chief minister. This left Shinde shocked and showed how his influence is slipping. Shinde has reportedly told close associates that in the current government, they cannot even appoint their own officers.

Family first: BJP leads in dynastic politics in upcoming Maharashtra local body polls

MUMBAI: Maharashtra this year witnessed a disappointing trend of dynastic politics as at least 33 BJP leaders fielded their spouses, children and relatives in the upcoming local body elections scheduled on December 2, 2025. The BJP, the party that always speaks against dynastic politics, has fielded the largest number of candidates related to its leaders. A politicalobserver said that the fielding of candidates chosen from the families of ruling ministers and MLAs showsthat family bonds are valued more than commitment to the party. It means the dynastic politics, rather than ending, it is growing with leaps and bounds. And, interestingly, the BJP, which is most critical of dynastic politics, has fieldedalarger number of candidates from their family in this local poll. So, the power will not be decentralised, but it will be concentrated in a few people's hands only, he added. BJP ministers who have fielded their spouses for Panchayat president posts include: Girish Mahajan whose spouse Sadhana Mahajan is contesting in Jamner Nagar, Sanjay Savkare's spouse Rajani Savkare in Bhusaval Nagar Panchayat, and Mangesh Chavan's spouse in Chalisgaon Nagar Panchayat. In Dhule district, BJP minister Jaikumar Rawal has fielded his mother Nayan Kuwar Rawal, for the president of Shindekheda Nagar Panchayat elections. Interestingly, Nayan has been declared elected as the opposition candidate nomination paper was cancelled due to some reasons. BJP MLA Tanaji Mutkule from Hingoli has nominated the candidature of his son, Shivaji Mutkule. Shiv Sena MLA Kishor Patils spouse Sunita Patil is also contesting for the president of Pachora Nagar Panchayat post elections in Jalgaon district. Another Sena MLA Sanjay Gaikwads spouse Pooja Gaikwad is also contesting the president post elections in Buldhana district. MLC Satyajit Tambes spouse, Maitheli Tambe, is contesting the Sangamner Nagar Panchayat president post elections. Priyadarshani Uike, daughter of Tribal Development Minister Ashok Uike, filed her nomination in theYawatmal district. Labour Minister Akash Phundkars sister-in-law, Aparna Phundkar, is contesting from Khamgaon. NCP is not far behind the BJP, the NCP minister Indranil Naik has fielded his spouse Mohini Naik for thepresident post of Pusad Nagar Panchayat elections. In theBadalpur Nagar panchayat election, 12 couples are contesting the corporator elections, while the Shinde Shinde-led Sena has nominated six members from one family in the local body elections. Former Shiv Sena MLA Suresh Gore nominated his spouse, Manisha Gore, for the Chakan municipal council election in Pune district.

Maharashtra Dy CM Shinde misses official meetings, rushes to Delhi to get reprieve

MUMBAI: Maharashtra deputy chief minister Eknath Shinde skipped the scheduled official programs in Mumbai and on Wednesday rushed to Delhi to meet Union Minister Amit Shah to express his displeasure and grievances. Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and his ministers have been sidelined in the BJP-led Mahayuti government. Sources say that the ministers are feeling the heat of BJPs Operation Lotus that will weaken Shinde's and his party's base. Shiv Sena minister Pratap Sarnaik said that it is true that there are differences and they are feeling uncomfortable because the BJP is poaching Senas strong and influential leaders, but things will be resolved amicably. Shinde has been choked from all sides, and labyrinth kike of situation has been created for him and his people so they have no options but to accept the dictate of the BJP. Shindes man of Friend and developer, Ajay Ashar,who currently lives in Dubai, is no longer close to Shinde and expressed his helplessness to help me out in financial matters. On the other hand,no adequate funds have been allocated to the Sena ministers, and the decisions of the Sena ministers' department are taken by the chief minister's office (CMO) as well. Therefore, the Sena ministers are holding the positions for the sake without power and authority to execute it, said a highly placed source who requested anonymity. He further added that secretaries of the Sena ministers holding department has given clear instructions by higher-ups that without clear instructions, no decision and paper should move out and in. Shinde is facing double wrath: the future of the party and financial blocking. Therefore, he expects that his meeting with Amit Shah will bring some reprieve and solace to him and his confused party, said a source whorequested anonymity. On Tuesday, in protest, Shindes minister skipped the cabinet meeting and met CM Fadnavis to express their anger over the BJPs Operation Lotus. CM Fadnavisreprimanded them saying the Sena should first correct its conduct and then come to him with a complaint against the BJP. Meanwhile, after thereport of Eknath Shinde rushing to Delhi, CM Devendra Fadnavis held a meeting with DCM Ajit Pawar in Mumbai, who is also facing several critical issues.
