We've been raising the ethanol issue since E20 rollout last year. Kejriwal didn't tweet about it even once.

Magic of public transport in Tokyo.
When will Bengaluru learn this and prioritise investments in public transport?

**The Rs 15,000 crore figure is the Karnataka Forest Department's estimated market value of the ~430 acres + 21 guntas of reserved forest land (Peenya Plantation & Jarakabande Sandal Reserve areas) that HMT has been ordered to return.**
This is calculated using:
- Prevailing **circle rates / guidance values** set by the state revenue department for those specific survey numbers/villages.
- Multiplied by the total land area.
- Cross-referenced with recent comparable market transactions in North Bengaluru's high-growth zones.
Bengaluru land prices in/around Peenya and similar areas have risen sharply due to urban expansion, pushing per-acre values into crores. Earlier similar HMT forest land recoveries were valued at ₹10,000–14,300 crore. News reports round it to highlight the scale — the exact methodology and rates used are in the DCF's official order.
