Shivakumar, the Bengaluru development minister, had also invited retired engineers from different departments when the presentation was made. He sought their input but didn't make any formal announcement yet.

Ever since the Congress party came to power in the state, the government has been indicating its seriousness to build tunnel roads in Bengaluru. It also plans to visit Singapore to study underground roads.
