Q:Hey, I have been planning to invest in one of the properties in Khandwa road. I have almost made up my mind about this property because I like the area, but I recently heard that there were some flood issues in the area. Can someone please tell me about this whole flood situation at khandwa road and advice if it’s still a good option to invest there?
Latest Answer: Hi all,
Khandwa Road is one of the fast developing surrounding of Indore, because of the presence of so many reputed schools and colleges the area has turned in to the educational hub of Indore.Khandwa road is a prime location! It has an excellent neighbourhood and is extremely well developed. Property value will definitely appreciate. I feel it's a very good choice to live in with family because it's a residential area. It's roughly about 2.5 km from IT Park Indore, University Campus and IIT. Good public transportation to reach other parts of the city.
Q:I've heard that the railway bridge near Sarwate Bus Stand area has a gaping hole that causes an inconvenience to the passersbys below? What exactly is the problem here and are the civic authorities doing anything about it?
Latest Answer: People are now very apprehensive to pass under this bridge only. Recently there was an interview with the Ratlam divison PRO, Jitendra Kumar Jayant, where he said that fixing this problem was not in his hands and that it was upto either the state government or the Indore Municipal Corporation to do something about it. He also suggested that no one should pass under the bridge when the train is moving overhead. Well who the hell would voluntarily do that anyway?
Q:I read in the news that Indore's Bus Rapid Transit System can be compared to international levels. Has it positively affected real estate in the city? Or are there problems caused because of this project?
Latest Answer: Bottom line is that Indore really doesn't need so many buses. The project would be able to contribute more to the growth of Indore if it only optimized on resources. The latest news related to BRTS has talked about how it violates the state law of purchasing diesel vehicles. About 4 years ago the law passed stated that, by the year 2013, all public transportation vehicles must switch to CNG. All auto rickshaws made the switch. When BRTS first came out, they promised us that pollution would decrease but to this I laugh out loud! 1300 trees were cut for the BRTS corridor and the law requires the project to plant 5 trees for every 1 tree cut. But that never happened! And the pollution is just going to increase if BRTS decides that it will stick with the diesel bus. Very hypocritical of the Indore civic authorities for allowing this to happen.
Latest Answer: Mogdhe also has plans of replacing all the old pipelines with new ones, especially on the AB bypass road where the residents are completely dependent on ground water. Now the plan is to actually increase the forest cover on the banks of the Narmada because otherwise the supply of water from Narmada is getting very expensive. Reforestation will help build the ecosystem thereby increasing water levels of Narmada and 6 to 8 crores doesn't need to be spent at the main pumping station in Jalool. Plants will absorb pollutants like nitrogen and phosphorous and convert them to nitrogen and nitrogen dioxide gases. Climate change will alter the river's hydrology!
