Bengaluru rain fury | Kendriya Vihar flooded again, residents rescued by NDRF

Hundreds of cars and two-wheelers parked in apartment complex basement submerged

Just two days after Kendriya Vihar apartment complex housing 603 flats was flooded, heavy rains caused overflow from the adjacent Yelahanka lake to gush into the premises once again early Sunday. By morning, the rains had stopped, but there was nearly 5 ft water stagnating within the apartment complex.

Soon after the apartment complex was flooded once again, power supply was cut off to prevent any untoward incidents. As many as 120 rescue personnel from the State and National Disaster Response Force along with BBMP officials and 40 police personnel were roped in to rescue and evacuate residents. Rafts and trackers were roped in during the rescue effort. Hundreds of cars and two-wheelers parked in the basement of the apartment complex have submerged.
