Metro Rail work kicked off in MG Road Banglaore few weeks back. The famous historic Bougainvillea at Anil Kumble Circle, MG Road Bangalore is serving shade for a sign board of Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation. This historic Bougainvillea will vanish from MG Road very soon. The Metro rail work progress can see on the background.
Hope this greenery will comeback again to MG Road after the Metro implementation.
