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.

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.
