Bengaluru Swamped: Heavy Rains Cause Waterlogging on Roads and Traffic Disruption in the IT Hub

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.
