India, April 14 -- Tired of cratered roads and civic apathy, Bengaluru's tech professionals turned to creativity to make their voices heard. On Saturday, residents of the Panathur-Balagere area, nestled near the Outer Ring Road tech corridor, staged a unique protest using music and art to highlight city's crumbling infrastructure.

From T-shirts that read "I paid taxes for roads, not for a rollercoaster" to reimagined Kannada songs, the protest turned into a visually powerful statement that quickly went viral on social media.

Protesters even used rangoli to outline potholes, symbolically highlighting the cracks in both the roads, and the system meant to maintain them.
