Rain disrupts traffic

Staff Reporter

BANGALORE: The already dull sky since Saturday morning got suddenly darker and there was a downpour in many parts of the city in the afternoon. It worsened the chaotic weekend traffic.

Motorists, particularly two-wheeler riders, struggling hard to drive on inundated roads were the common scene.

Rainwater was flowing like streams in Hudson Circle while it created a cess pool in front of Vidhana Soudha and Coffee Board.

Almost all arterial roads and circles in the central parts of the city resembled storm water drains.
