Once upon a time in a village, a man appeared and announced to the villagers that he would buy monkeys for Rs10. The villagers seeing that there were so many monkeys around, went out to the forest and started catching them. The man bought thousands at Rs10 and as supply started to diminish, the villagers stopped their effort.
He further announced that he would now buy at Rs20. This renewed the efforts of the villagers and they started catching monkeys again. Soon the supply diminished even further and people started going back to their farms. The offer rate increased to Rs25 and the supply of monkeys became so little that it was an effort to even see a monkey, let alone catch it!
The man now announced that he would buy monkeys at Rs50! However, since he had to go to the city on some business, his assistant would now buy onbehalf of him. In the absence of the man, the assistant told the villagers. Look at all these monkeys in the big cage that the man has collected. I will sell them to you at Rs35 and when the man returns from the city, you can sell it to him for Rs50."
The villagers squeezed up with all their savings and bought all the monkeys.
Then they never saw the man nor his assistant, only monkeys everywhere!! !

2. Bangalore Water supply and Sewarage Board (BWSSB) has also come up with several projects for the betterment of environment and society.

But if infrastructure projects continue to become victims of political bickering, the Silicon City is sure to be more chaotic.
Bangalore is one of the fastest growing cities in India. Bangalore has attracted people, companies, tourists and multinationals towards it. The massive changes that the city has witnessed clearly show that the city has developed rapidly. The population of the city is also increased vigorously due to migration of people from other parts of country. This has indeed reduced the population of kannadiga’s
Along with the population the city has also seen great improvements to its roads, highways and other infrastructure. With just 3 years being away from home, I can see that several flyovers have come into existence making the traffic and travel easier. But still, the problem of traffic congestion still exists in Bangalore.
Several measures/projects which stand/stood in the way of Bangalore give me immense happiness towards the development of the city.
