Monday, Oct. 23: The side of a house in Alur-Siddapur of the taluk collapsed due to the heavy rains that fell until the night of yesterday. Along with this, sewage water entered the low-lying areas and created chaos.
Heavy rains poured in the town including the rural areas until the evening and night, causing problems for the Diwali festival celebrations. Along with this, the wall of a house belonging to Suresh Somaiah of Alur-Siddapur village collapsed and caused damage.
Although a new bridge has been built at the town's Kakkehole junction, there is no drainage system for the smooth flow of rainwater, so sewage water has entered the shop fronts and hotels on the roadside and created chaos.
A large amount of sewage and waste has entered the interior of the hotel belonging to Satish, and electronic equipment has been damaged. Although a new bridge has been built at this place, there is no drainage on the side of the road, which is a major problem. Sewage is flowing through the Anjaneya Temple, the Public Works Department office area, the Kannadamb Circle on Madikeri Road, Club Road, and Kodava Samaj Road to Kakkehole Junction, and due to the lack of proper drainage, the waste water is entering the shops and houses, Satish said. The locals have demanded that the Public Works Department engineers immediately inspect the site and take action to resolve the problem.
The rain that fell last night had disrupted normal life. The rain hampered the festive celebrations. In the evening, people were moving in the town, and the owners of firecracker shops were expecting a big business. But the business was ruined due to the sudden heavy rain.
It rained heavily until 10.30 pm. The roads, which were already potholed, deteriorated further. The flow of water scattered stones, mud, and plastic waste from the drains on the road. There was an obstacle to the movement of two-wheelers in Kakkehole, Vivekananda Circle, and Kannadamb Circle.
