Upgraded along the lines of Seoul’s Cheonggyecheon canal, K-100 stormwater drain held up during the recent deluge in Bengaluru due to massive desilting efforts.
13 residents of Rainbow Drive, home to many who moved to Karnataka for work, get notices for alleged encroachment of stormwater drain. Water activist says 'proper water system' needed.
Calling for holistic solutions for newly urbanising, expanding parts of the city, experts suggest govt uses weather apps & desilts drains to avert future disasters.
Damage to your car can happen even while wading through seemingly small amounts of water. That big SUV of yours can be crippled by just a few inches of water.
This is the game every nation is now learning to play. Some are finding new allies or seeing value among nations where they’d seen marginal interest. The starkest example is India & Europe.
