Kempegowdru International Airportu?-LEDS2Oct2009

Sir,

This is with reference to the proposed name change of Bengaluru International Airport to Possibly KGIA(Kempegowda Intl Airport).

It is already obvious that this is in the famous city of Bengaluru nee Bangalore of World war II Bangalore Torpedo fame.

Do the politicians lack pressing issues to have to serve up such populist vote grabbing shenanigans?

This is myopically splitting the society along caste,religion and vote bank fault lines.

They are promoting a provincial state.This is a publicity stunt to divert attention from lack of governance.

The very thought vividly recalls my sense of oppressive breathlessness on my visit to the then East Germany even in open air.

The next step should be to Carnaticize all multinationals by ubiquitous U turning- Phillipsu, Microsoftu, Infosyssu, Marthassu, allave guru?

If we have to we can go whole hog and call it kempegowdru international airport.

Will the BIA promoters rigorously defend their turf or awaiting a PIL.

Thanking you

Sincerely yours,

Mr. M.B. Nataraj
