1. Parts of Karnataka have witnessed heavy rains since last night. The incessant downpour on Monday night left parts of Bengaluru marooned and the control room of the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) received complaints of two trees getting uprooted. Rainwater entered houses in many areas and the roads were flooded.
It has been raining very heavily in coastal Karnataka too, with more rains predicted in the region over the next couple of days. Dakshina Kannada district administration has declared holiday for schools and colleges in Kadaba and Sullia taluks that witnessed torrential rains and flash floods. It has also issued advisory to devotees not to visit pilgrim centre Kukke Subrahmanya at least for two days due to heavy rains and floods.
