In Karnataka, heavy rains has caused water to enter low-lying areas, flooding several parts of the Hubballi city on Wednesday night.

In the old Hubballi area, rainwater seeped into houses, causing distress among residents.

A vehicle carrying 13 passengers and two cars plunged into a water-filled service road at the Rayanal underpass on the under-construction Hubballi-Dharwad bypass in outer Hubballi.Fortunately, no lives were lost in the incident.

Residents have complained that they face similar flooding issues after every heavy rain but are not receiving any assistance or response from authorities.

"After the heavy rainfall we witnessed yesterday, the real issue lies with the open gutters. They are filled with 4-5 feet of dirt and plastic waste, which blocks the water flow and causes flooding inside our homes. You must have seen how serious the situation is--there's stagnant water everywhere because the drains aren't allowing free flow. We face the same problem every year. There is a solution, but despite contacting the area MLA, we are told that the gutters and infrastructure are adequate to handle such issues. But the sewers are not being cleaned, and that's causing major trouble for us. In Ganesh Nagar, almost every household was flooded because of this," said Prakash, a resident of Ganesh Nagar.
