Bengaluru Rain | Rain Chaos: Bengaluru's Infrastructure Ills Exposed

Can Bengaluru's infrastructure withstand another monsoon? It is a question we ask every year, and then within days, as it happens with the crumbling infrastructure in other cities, it is forgotten or brushed aside for later. Let me tell you what has happened now. After just two days of excess rain in India's tech capital, several areas in the city are now fully inundated and waterlogged. For years, between the BJP and Congress we have seen promises of a city masterplan, separate budget for brand Bengaluru and most importantly, a plan to remodel the city's stormwater drains that have been a problem.

This is also the place that has pioneered many debates on climate change and solutions. It is the city of lakes that has a strong civic action network, which means there are more people asking questions, holding governments accountable, but as politics plays out between the BJP and Congress over rain and infra mess, we ask today, what will it take to reboot India's IT capital..

While we are constructing the world class national highways in India, the urban city roads are in a very bad shape. It is a time to have a national level policy for the urban planning and strictly enforcement by the states, otherwise this blame game continues between the political parties when the regime changes in a particular state! it is a high time to fix .

Bengaluru has multiple institutions to look into these things. Probably not clearly demarking the responsibility is the prime reason for this.

1) BBMP
2) BWSSB
3) BDA
