News this week: The Indian Chief Minister of Karnataka, Siddaramaiah, announced
after his visit to China that the India government plans to build an
international convention centre at Devanahalli, a town 40 km northeast of
Bangalore. Construction of the new venue is expected to cost around US$79
million and will be located near the Bengaluru
International Airport.
Siddaramaiah said the venue will follow the model of a public-private-partnership,
where land will be provided by the government and the investment to build the
venue will be provided by a private company. Devanahalli is 12 km away from the
airport, while Bangalore International Exhibition
Centre (BIEC), a major exhibition venue in Bangalore, is located 43 km from
the airport.
