Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has reached out to Wipro founder-chairman Azim Premji, seeking the IT major’s support to alleviate traffic congestion along the Outer Ring Road (ORR) corridor, particularly near the busy Iblur junction.

The Chief Minister cited preliminary assessments conducted by traffic and urban mobility experts.

In a letter dated September 19, Siddaramaiah proposed exploring the possibility of allowing limited vehicular movement through the Wipro campus, subject to mutually agreed terms and security considerations.

The Chief Minister cited preliminary assessments conducted by traffic and urban mobility experts, which indicate that such a measure could reduce congestion on adjoining stretches of the ORR by nearly 30 percent, especially during peak office hours.
