In this photograph taken on October 22, 2025, commuters ride along a street riddled with potholes in Bengaluru. Home to nearly 12 million people and state capital of Karnataka, Bengaluru is the "Silicon Valley" of the world's fifth biggest economy -- hosting thousands of start-ups, outsourcing firms, and global tech giants from Google to Microsoft. Yet its flagship Outer Ring Road (ORR) business district is clogged with traffic, pocked with potholes, and often flooded during the monsoon.

(FILES) The construction site of Stegra's green-steel plant is pictured on June 10, 2025, in Boden, Northern Sweden. The Swedish Energy Agency said on November 26, 2025 it was giving some USD 40 million in support to low-carbon steelmaker Stegra, amid fears surrounding the ambitious startup's finances. Stegra is building a new steel mill it says will produce steel using technology that gives off 95 percent less CO2 emissions than traditional methods. Approximately 60 percent of the work has been completed. In October, Stegra announced another round of financing to bring in an additional 10 billion kronor (USD 1 billion) to cover higher project costs.
