This was revealed by P S Mohammed, managing director, Ecologic Habitats at a press meet here on Thursday November 19.

The Mangaluru-based real estate development firm 'Ecologic Habitats' is all set to revolutionize the idea of traveling on the Indian highways with the concept of transit oriented development. Transit- one is strategically located on NH-66, Thokottu, the southern gateway to Mangaluru city.

Addressing the press meet, P S Mohammed said, "The idea is to maximize the shopping access to public and private transport along this busy freeway that connects Kerala to Mangaluru, Goa, Mumbai and so on. Transit One also caters to the Thokottu region, a fast growing suburb with numerous educational institutes and IT firms. The tagline 'Stop. Recharge. Restart' sums up the transit situated on 40 cents of land with 50,000 sq ft area of plush shopping experience. It addresses the need of the hour for towns like Thokottu, which otherwise would have to depend on nearby Mangaluru city to meet their routine shopping and recreational requirements.

"Transit One offers a wide range of products right from affordable mini boutique stores to large drive in supermarkets, restaurants, food courts, social clubs, thus catering to all sections of the society. The external facade also has a large electronic display screen where one can showcase their ideas and brands. Promoters of the project envision Transit One to be a 'Small world of large happiness'," he added.

"The visitors step into the level 1 by strolling across the external landscaped plaza, where they are welcomed by their favourite branded stores. Level 2 is the urban fashionista's delight where a wide range of trendy apparel accessories catch your eye. Level 3 is what the Ecologic says is the modem version of the 'Old Indian Bazaar', where the local entrepreneurial spirit is at full display at the smaller boutique stores. Level 4 offers an extensive variety of culinary options with the perfect ambience," he explained.

"Ecologic Habitats boasts of raking in the services of the best in industry to design and implement the project. Well-landscaped environs is what we believe is at the core of our product portfolio. Services of a leading Bengaluru-based landscape architect has been sought to breathe in green into the entire shopping experience. At Ecologic Habitats it is our commitment to add value to all our buildings by breathing green into them. We aspire to partner with a like-minded set of discernible clientele, so that it can add value to their investments by consistently delivering products that inspire," P S Mohammed said.

Kareem, director and Pradeep Hegde, associate, Ecologic Habitats were present at the press meet.

Hassan, Feb 19: A 19-year-old boy, in a bid to impress his girlfriend, stole a sports bike from an OLX seller but cops managed to reach him through her on Tuesday.

The accused, Pramod, who works at a bakery, had been involved in a bike-lifting case two years ago too.

On February 9, Pramod saw an advertisement on online marketing platform OLX from Puneeth, a farmer from Shravanabelagola town, who wanted to sell his sports bike for Rs 1.4 lakh. Pramod called him up and the two agreed to meet around 6pm that evening at Shravanabelagola town bus stand.

Once there, Pramod, a college dropout, assured Puneeth that he would buy the bike but wanted to take it for a test drive. The seller agreed. A few minutes passed and when there was no sign of the bike or Pramod, Puneeth tried calling him. The phone was switched off and could not be contacted since. Puneeth immediately filed a cheating case with the Shravanabelagola police.

SP R Srinivas Gowda and ASP BN Nandini put together a team and began tracing Pramod's call detail records. Maximum calls were made to a single number and it turned out to be his girlfriend's.

Cops called the girlfriend and on Tuesday, asked her to contact him and ascertain his location. They traced him near Hassan city's railway station and nabbed him along with the bike. On interrogation, Pramod confessed that he wanted to impress his girlfriend and take her on long drives on the sports bike.

Police said Pramod, who belongs to Bandithimmanahalli village of Alur taluk, dropped out of college two years ago and has been working at a bakery in Sahyadri Circle.

While working, he has been involved in several incidents of bike-lifting. Cops said he appeared to have strained relations with his family and had taken to crime to make a quick buck.
