Bengaluru Floods After Record-Breaking Spell Of Overnight Rain | Traffic Collapses Citywide

A record-breaking spell of overnight rain flooded major Bengaluru roads, crippling Monday morning traffic across key IT corridors. Commuters were stuck at submerged junctions like Panathur, Silk Board, and Nagawara, forcing traffic police to issue multiple advisories. The KSNDMC confirmed rainfall levels not seen in decades for May, with over 130mm recorded in parts. Viral social media posts showed floating vehicles and clogged underpasses, reigniting criticism over civic failure and BBMP’s lack of monsoon readiness. Civic agencies now face mounting pressure to overhaul stormwater drainage systems citywide. #BengaluruFloods #BengaluruRain #BengaluruTraffic #PanathurRUB #SilkBoard #KSNDMC #BBMP #BengaluruWeather #IndiaRainfall #MonsoonPrep #UrbanFlooding #ClimateCrisis #RainHavoc #Waterlogging #TrafficJam #ITCorridorChaos #EmergencyAlert #WeatherUpdate #KarnatakaNews #BangaloreBuzz
