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.

Watch this video for a detailed look at the flooding crisis and its impact on Bengaluru.

Rahul Gandhi, a prominent Indian opposition leader, criticized the lack of diversity in the Miss India pageant, pointing out the absence of Dalit, tribal, and OBC (Other Backward Classes) women among the contestants. This comment appears to be part of a broader critique of social inequality in India and a push for a caste census.
