Waterlogging and flooding in some parts of Bengaluru
Heavy rains lashed parts of Bengaluru on November 4 evening, putting a dampner on Deepavali celebrations. But, more important, the rains led to waterlogging and flooding in some areas.
South, West and Mahadevapura zones reported heavy rains – on an average over 100 mm of rainfall – while other parts received moderate to light rains. Yelahanka, Bommanahalli and Dasarahalli zones reported no rain-related complaints.
Senior BJP leader and former Telangana Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan on Saturday (November 23, 2024) said the landslide victory of the Mahayuti alliance in the Maharashtra Assembly election was historic, and that it reflected people’s mindset across the country. She added that the DMK would be unseated from power in the 2026 Assembly election in Tamil Nadu and that the BJP would be the reason for it.
