Bengaluru Traffic Inspires Newton's Fourth Law: ‘Auto At Rest Will Remain...'
Last Updated: Stuck in traffic near Brookfield, an X user posted a screenshot of his Google Maps, which estimated 48 minutes to travel just 3.6 kilometres. Bengaluru, often referred to as the IT capital of India, continues to draw professionals from every corner of the country with its countless job opportunities. But for all its growth and tech boom, the city has long been infamous for one thing – its unbearable traffic. Getting from one part of Bengaluru to another can often feel like a never-ending mission. And once again, the city has made headlines for its traffic troubles. Recently, a man named Lalit Gour shared his real-time struggle on X (formerly Twitter), and his post has been getting a lot of attention. Stuck in traffic near Brookfield, Lalit posted a screenshot of his Google Maps, which estimated 48 minutes to travel just 3.6 kilometres. 'Newton's fourth law of motion: A Bangalore auto at rest will remain at rest," he wrote along with the screenshot. Newton's fourth law of motion : A Bangalore auto at rest will remain at rest. — Lalit Gour (@lalitgrateful) June 27, 2025 The post struck a chord with many people who couldn't help but laugh at the shared struggle. One user said, 'No words when it comes to Bengaluru traffic," while another added, 'Walk is the only solution." Someone shared, 'Damn. 48 mins for 3.6km. I just drove to the office, 19 km in 50 mins." A person asked, 'Why??? Don't auto drivers want to earn money or they happy with freebies given by the government?" Even people outside Bengaluru could relate like an individual from Gurugram who said, 'Even here in Gurgaon, 16-lane roads get jammed." 'Crazy bro. When an interviewer asks, 'Where do you see yourself in 5 years?' I just think… still stuck in Bangalore traffic…," he wrote. Crazy an interviewer asks, "Where do you see yourself in 5 years?"I just think… still stuck in Bangalore traffic. 😭🤣 — Lalit Gour (@lalitgrateful) June 27, 2025 To tackle Bengaluru's ever-growing traffic problem, the government is working on several big infrastructure projects. Back in March, Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister D. K. Shivakumar shared details about some of these upcoming developments aimed at improving the city's roads and traffic flow. 'We are planning double-decker flyovers wherever new metro lines are being developed. The BBMP (Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike) and BMRCL (Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited) will share the cost equally. It costs Rs 120 crore to construct one kilometre of a double-decker flyover, and we have allocated Rs 9,000 crore for the project," he said, in a release issued by his office. Apart from flyovers, he said the city will also see 300 km of 50-feet-wide buffer roads built along stormwater drains. These are expected to ease congestion in areas that often get choked with traffic. For this, an additional Rs 3,000 crore has been set aside. First Published:

Sending money to India, Pakistan, Philippines or Bangladesh? Emirates NBD to start charging, check charges, effective date
Dubai government-owned Emirates NBD , which offers free international money transfers through its DirectRemit services, will now charge for international transfers. The bank emailed its customers to inform them that it will begin charging a fee of Dh26.25 for all international remittances. Emirates NBD is among the UAE's largest banking groups by total income and is widely used by expats to send money to countries like India, Pakistan, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Egypt, and the UK. From September 1, the Emirates NBD remittance fee will apply to transfers made through both online banking and the bank's mobile app. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Play War Thunder now for free War Thunder Play Now Undo What will change for expats from India, Pakistan, the Philippines, and other countries DirectRemit by Emirates NBD is widely used by expats in the UAE for fast and free money transfers to their home countries, including India, Pakistan, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Egypt, and the United Kingdom. Transfers through this service typically take less than 60 seconds and have been entirely free of charge until now. Starting in September, customers using DirectRemit to send money to these countries will have to pay Dh26.25 per transaction. This could particularly affect low-income workers who send money home frequently in small amounts, as the fixed fee will reduce the net amount received by their families. Live Events The fee will also apply to all other international transfers, regardless of destination. In addition, the bank will charge up to Dh26.25 for recalling or cancelling both local and international transfers. For those using BUNA , a regional cross-border payment platform, charges will be applied 'as per actuals,' meaning the final fee will vary depending on the transaction. The move may prompt customers to explore other transfer options, including money exchange houses or digital platforms offering more competitive rates. Many expats in the UAE rely on Emirates NBD for their remittance needs due to its convenience, speed, and previously zero-fee structure. The upcoming changes might shift user behavior as customers weigh the cost against the convenience. The bank has not stated if any exemptions or special rates will be available for frequent users or for transfers of larger amounts. How much do other UAE banks charge for international wire transfers? Other banks in the UAE generally charge international wire transfer fees that vary based on the currency, transfer method, and destination. Typically, these fees range from AED 20 to AED 60 per transaction. Many banks offer some free transfers monthly via online or mobile banking channels, after which a fee applies. With this update, Emirates NBD becomes the latest UAE bank to revise its fee structure, possibly to match up with the broader trends in digital banking and cross-border transaction costs.
