The spate of heavy rains over the last few days are exposing the fault lines in the city’s infrastructure. A day after a retaining wall of a stormwater drain collapsed in Nagarbhavi 2nd Stage, another wall near Kino Theatre underpass in Seshadripuram gave way on Monday.
Over the last fortnight, rains have wreaked havoc in the city with buildings developing cracks, tilting, or collapsing with alarming frequency.
The Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) officials suspect that in the latest incident at Seshadripuram, the stone masonry wall may have become weak following rains and water seepage. According to locals who complained to the BBMP, the wall collapsed sometime around noon.
