Tiranga Time: One Of India’s Tallest National Flags And Nigdi’s Bhakti Shakti Bus Terminal

Nigdi BRTS by Mahesh Kumbar

Standing tall at 107 m (351 feet), one of India’s tallest National Flags is located at the Bhakti Shakti Chowk at Nigdi in Pimpri-Chinchwad. This junction, an intersection of the Old Mumbai-Pune Highway (National Highway 48/Old NH4), Spine Road and Nigdi Chikhli Road (being extended to the Mukai Chowk Kiwale BRTS terminal) also houses the Pune Mahanagar Parivahan Mahamandal Limited (PMPML) Bhakti Shakti Bus Depot and the Sahityaratna Lokshahir Anna Bhau Sathe Bus Terminal.

The bus terminal is the starting point of the Nigdi-Dapodi arm of the Rainbow BRTS (remember that?).

Shot by Jagdish Patil using a DJI Mavic drone, here is a beautiful view of the bus terminal. You can see the terminal on the left hand side of the upcoming flyover.

Another shot by Jagdish shows the Bhakti Shakti depot. It is visible below in the top right corner, just behind the national flag.

That’s all for this post. Quite a tall flag, eh?
