Bengaluru Residents, Hospitals Cry For Help As Water Reserves Dwindle

Bengaluru has a huge chunk of the country's techies, who have flocked to the IT hub for the opportunities it offers. Now, they are looking at work-from-home options

Five showers in a month, ordering out instead of cooking and using treated water for non-drinking purposes - the water crisis in Bengaluru has pushed residents to the wall as they struggle for every drop. As the people adopt recycling methods to manage with less water, NDTV visited some parched areas and spoke to them about how life has changed.

Residents of suburban Babusapalya are dependent on water tankers for their daily supply, and that has taken a severe hit over the past couple of months.

"We need four tankers daily. We are getting only one or two. We are facing huge problems over the past two-three months," one resident said.
