Not just the infrastructure, but even the general attitudes of the people. Are you saying it's better or worse? I for one don't like Hyderabad as much as I did a couple of years back. I feel it's becoming like Bangalore - government is making the same mistakes of allowing uncontrolled growth to happen without planning. Infra is starting to crumble compared to what used to be a couple of yrs back. Mariyam and Vijy 2

Close the lid with a cloth and slow cook on a stove. The masala flavor in the rice gets deep if you use the dum technique Suddenly craving for a good Dum Biriyani has increased.

The Gachibowli/Hitec/Cyberabad areas are likeable. And lively. At the moment, plots of lands/flats are reasonably priced ( at least vis a vis Mumbai or Delhi). raki05 1
