Thanks Mavin. I think there should be a movement to revive Indian architecture – atleast few important buildings in the city could be made to look ‘nice and functional’ not just functional as the government strategy was back in the socialist days. I agree with you, building grandiose structures was never a priority although a number of places such as Vijaynagar empire, Mughals and Rajasthan depicts some grand constructions.
