    Rain is beautiful gift by Nature and if BBMP Bangalore plans well ahead of rain, the city can enjoy the beauty of rain. BBMP spend crores on drainage and on town planning but sometimes these BBMP fails to provide storm water outlets and rainwater floods in road affecting commuters especially two wheelers and pedestrians.

    Flooded situation has become common in Bangalore and BBMP who are working without plan is creating more problem for commuters.
