Poll result


Here is the poll result. 51% of the people voted for YES. and they think that the techno city project is a hype. and 36% of them are saying its not a hype.

anyway after the commencement of the technocity project, the prices of the nearby places got rocketed high. and its is reported that it reached up to 17 Lakh/cent!

The real estate mafia and the land brokers are taking the advantage of the techno city project. and so the same reason so many people believes that the technocity is a hype made up of the real estate mafia in trivandrum.

But according to the reliable sources the project is already started and will be completed according to the current plan. govt should take necessery steps to make sure that, this project not making any parallel mafia's in trivandrum.
