Is the city transforming itself for tomorrow ?

 Old City with its own bottleneck of limited roads built during British days, is slowly gearing up itself to a modern outlook, adding new complexes of modern high rise building, forming into IT hubs and business treading centre and slowly waking up to the calls of fast track development of infrastructure required for easy life tomorrow.
