Bengaluru Traffic Leaves Even Founders Frustrated โ€” Zeptoโ€™s Aadit Palicha Calls His Airport Commute โ€œThe Most Painful Thingโ€


Bengaluruโ€™s notorious traffic jams have found yet another critic โ€” and this time, itโ€™s a familiar face from Indiaโ€™s startup world.

Zepto co-founder Aadit Palicha recently admitted that his biggest struggle in the city isnโ€™t scaling a startup or managing logistics, but simply getting to the airport.

Speaking on a podcast, Palicha confessed that traveling from his home to Kempegowda International Airport is โ€œthe most painful thingโ€ in his life right now. โ€œThatโ€™s like the most painful thing that I have to do one or two times a month,โ€ he said, adding with a laugh that heโ€™d be โ€œvery happyโ€ if companies actually managed to solve Bengaluruโ€™s congestion problem.

Palichaโ€™s remarks strike a chord with millions of Bengaluru residents who spend hours in traffic every day. Despite its position as Indiaโ€™s tech capital, the city continues to struggle with road infrastructure, rapid urbanisation, and increasing vehicle density.

As Bengaluru works toward sustainable mobility solutions โ€” from metro expansions to last-mile connectivity initiatives โ€” Palichaโ€™s comment underscores how even the most successful entrepreneurs canโ€™t bypass the cityโ€™s everyday hurdles.

Bengaluru to Get 80,000-Seats Cricket Stadium in Surya City, Bommasandra


In a landmark decision for Karnatakaโ€™s sports infrastructure, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has given the green light for the construction of a massive 80,000-seat cricket stadium in Surya City, Bommasandra.

The announcement follows the recent stampede-like situation at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, where overcrowding raised safety concerns. This new facility aims to accommodate the growing demand for cricket in the city and provide a world-class venue for both domestic and international matches.

Once completed, the Surya City stadium will become the second-largest cricket stadium in India, after the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, and one of the largest in the world. It is expected to feature state-of-the-art amenities, modern player facilities, advanced pitch technology, and crowd management systems to ensure safety and comfort.

Officials believe the project will also boost the local economy, create employment opportunities, and position Bengaluru as a premier sports destination. Cricket fans across the country are already anticipating the grand experience this venue promises to deliver.

Bengaluru Auto Fares Hiked from August 1: Commuters to Pay More


In a move set to impact thousands of daily commuters, the Karnataka government has announced a revision in auto rickshaw fares across Bengaluru, effective August 1, 2025.

Under the new structure:

  • The minimum fare has been raised to โ‚น36 for the first 2 kilometres
  • Beyond that, commuters will pay โ‚น18 per kilometre

The fare revision, the first in over two years, comes in response to rising fuel prices, maintenance costs, and driver demands for better compensation. Transport authorities stated that the hike was implemented after discussions with auto unions and considering inflation trends.

While the move aims to provide relief to auto drivers, many daily commuters have expressed concerns over the rising cost of living in the city. Authorities are expected to monitor fare compliance closely and ensure meters are calibrated accordingly.

For residents, the hike signals the need to budget more for daily travel, while for the cityโ€™s auto drivers, it could offer some economic stability.
