A look at the news headlines from Bengaluru in 2024 that caught national attention
It was a busy year for journalists in Bengaluru as 2024 turned out to be an action packed one. From an unprecedented water crisis to flooded roads, and from high profile arrests to some chilling crime stories, 2024 saw it all.
Right in the first half of the year, before the summer has set in, fears of taps running dry in the IT city loomed large. From the water crisis, the city had to deal with the deluge during the monsoon.
The crime stories that made news were the high profile arrests of H. D. Revanna, actor Darshan, gruesome murders in Vyalikaval, Indiranagar, Koramangala and the alleged suicide of techie Atul Subhash.
Meanwhile, Kannada became a bone of contention through the year.
