2-year-old falls into borewell in Karnataka, trapped at 15-20ft
Wednesday, 3 April 2024 A two-year-old boy fell into a defunct borewell in Indi taluk, Vijayapura, Karnataka. Rescuers monitored the situation using a camera and lowered oxygen pipes.

Bengaluru's ongoing monsoon has severely waterlogged at least 180 prominent roads, including key areas near Hebbal Circle and the Outer Ring Road (ORR). Despite previous warnings, including a fatal incident at the KR Circle underpass, municipal authorities have failed to address the issue. Ongoing construction projects, pothole-ridden roads, and poor drainage maintenance contribute to the problem. The situation has led to traffic chaos, vehicle damage, and safety hazards across the city.

Bengaluru, India’s IT hub, has been hit hard by heavy rains, resulting in severe waterlogging across the city. Several areas are now submerged under knee-deep water, leading to significant traffic disruptions and impassable routes for office goers. Angry netizens have taken to X (formerly Twitter) to criticize the administration and the ruling Congress government for their handling of the situation. Complaints include the administration's 'visionary plans' and BBMP's outsourcing of stormwater drainage clearance. The traffic department has issued alerts for slow traffic on key roads, advising commuters to plan alternative routes. Watch this video for a detailed look at the flooding crisis and its impact on Bengaluru.
