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.

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.
