Lab equipment at Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research yet to be switched on as water has not receded
The damage caused by rainwater flooding the premises of the Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR) in Jakkur is yet to be estimated. Several buildings, including laboratories and library were inundated.
On Tuesday, Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai, accompanied by Yelahanka MLA and senior civic officials, visited the centre and met with Bharat Ratna awardee, C.N.R. Rao, who is honorary president of JNCASR.
Admitting that the centre was also once part of Jakkur lake, he took stock of the damage which includes equipment and vital research samples.
