Let's just hope this is a step towards becoming a more advanced society so they stop doing the horrible things they do.

Thank you! and good to hear that. And more proud of the fact this is from a place where a large part still depends on bullock carts.

Two months back while I was in Bangalore had seen few on the city roads.

Sorry! I'm in Bangalore for the last 5+ yrs., never seen even one on the city roads. My point was - India has changed, Indians have too - in our own way. A majority of India doesn't ride on bullock carts today. Our house maid has a cellphone, just like my newspaper delivery boy. They're aware of the Chandrayaan-I - whose main control room is in Bidar - just a few kilometers away from Bangalore city. The Tata Nano is undergoing its final road tests, while Honda reduced the price of the Honda Civic Hybrid by 8+ Lakhs! <quote> Chandrayaan-I cost ISRO US$80 million ($120.193 million), compared to Japan's Selene mission's US$480 million, or China's Change-E1 mission that cost US$187 million. The European Space Agency's (ESA) Small Mission for Advanced Research in Technology (SMART-1) in 2003 cost US$140 million. </quote>

Your original comment did not sound like that. Also - the article clearly mentioned it was done as a form of protest. Otherwise bullock carts aren't used for transport in the city. Anyway - as both of us are proud of our country, let this argument RIP.

that's appropriate, right?
No, that's an old TV show. Ted Danson plays Sam Malone, a retired baseball pitcher who owns a bar. Remember? ;)
