V.V. Puram’s renovated thindi beedi misses I-Day date for reopening

Bengaluru’s popular ‘thindi beedi’ (food street) in Visveswarapuram (V.V. Puram) has missed its date with Independence Day to be reopened in a renovated form.

As on Tuesday, the street remained partially closed as construction continued. The food street was shut down more than seven months ago and renovation of the street has been going on since December 2022. A majority of the stalls remain shut.

The street has been converted into a pedestrian-only stretch. However, the promised renovation of the road to make it look similar to Commercial Street has not been completed.
