Viral Video: Water entered in High-security Research Center of Karnataka

Jawaharlal Nehru Centre For Advanced Scientific Research - got flooded on Monday morning due to continuous rain

 Bangalore: Karnataka is with clouds of dense rainfall. An inundated library, a cubicle filled with muddy floodwater and a few people moving about in ankle-deep water trying to salvage what seems like record materials on shelves partially submerged in water were seen in visuals from a premier research institute in Bengaluru.

The institute - Jawaharlal Nehru Centre For Advanced Scientific Research - got flooded on Monday morning due to continuous rain in parts of Karnataka.

The rainwater is collected in the research room. Several research materials and reports seem to have been damaged due to this flooding. The assessment process will start once the water is completely drained out.

According to the reports, the state is fully covered with rainwater.

It was entered many schools, colleges and homes as well. Several cars parked in the basement of apartments were submerged in floodwater. Heavy rains have caused much damage to many areas. Water-logging has been seen on the streets of Karnataka.

Boats were also deployed in several localities in north Bengaluru to rescue people. The National Disaster Management Authority (NDRF) and the State Disaster Response Force (SDRF) were also pressed to discharge the water. Most of the water-logging occurred in and around residences built on lake beds where there is not much of an alternative to divert the accumulated water.

The heavy rainfall in the state resulted in extensive flooding in Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh due to a depression from the Bay of Bengal crossing the coasts of these southern states bringing in the heavy deluge.
