Rain pain Rain pain water logging trouble The monsoon is here and it brings trouble for residents. While many are unable to remain indoors due to water logging, many cannot come out of their homes due to flooded roads. Residents are wondering, with worry, how they will manage things until the monsoon ends as despite many reminders, authorities have failed to improve their situation. There are many areas in the city that are suffering due to water logging. In Doddabidarakallu, most roads are not asphalted and the mud turns into a slush with every spell of rain. “It can be argued that there is no need to come out of the house during a lockdown. However, we need to venture out to buy essentials. During this, we have to walk on slushy, mud-filled roads, hoping that no heavy vehicles pass us, and splash silt on our clothes. These roads are worse, compared to even dirt tracks. We don’t even know when this will get solved,” said Rajappa S, a resident of Vinayaka Layout in Doddabidarakallu.
