Hmm in a way yes, but then again in most of cities you always have places which are expensive & places which are cheap. Blaming the IT is the new Buzz, not that its entirely untrue but in most cases IT has been a catalyst if not the real cause.

Another reason for rickshaw menace & some other areas of price hike is due to a large influx on people from outside Pune(this includes people from other cities of Maharashtra too & not just out of state guys) who didnt know what was the right price for labor & other commodities.

And this is not just in IT but also people who came for other industries like Auto, Telecom etc etc
