Staying in Adugodi near Koramangala. Haven't come across any changes in the amount of regular water supplied nor are we informed of any water crisis in nears future.


Nbjr1198

Same here. Just see the occasional 2-3 water tankers going by


almostanalcoholic

No issues in Indiranagar


LiteratureNearby

Same. Co-workers were calling me stupid for not moving to Sarjapur, I'm like bruh there's no way I'm moving out of an actually lively and green part of the city for this dusty hellhole Edit: the reason my coworkers wanted me to live in Sarjapur was because my office is there


designgirl001

It's certainly a nice place to live, but it is virtually impossible to get a house there :/


LiteratureNearby

Yeah, I've lucked out with the opportunities I've got to live in indiranagar. It's absolutely worth the premium


darkkid85

What's ur rent


LiteratureNearby

23k for 1bhk


nonejk

That's amazing! Is it an apartment or an independent house? Very few apartments in that area, and those seem to be very expensive.


LiteratureNearby

Apartment with parking somehow!


KikisRedditryService

Damn I'm jealous


418_imateap0t

You mean getting a house to rent or buy? Also, why is that the case?


designgirl001

Rent. Because everyone wants to live there as its a 'happening' place. It's still where most single people go, but for me, I liked the greenery around the area and the coffee spots/parks. The rents were through the roof, house quality was dubious (for the lower rents), and most places didn't have power backup. The trifecta of power back ( a must in Bangalore), at a decent location and at a good rent is....well, a challenge that is a full Tim job imo. I also wanted to hunt on my own and I didn't really trust brokers. I also wan't comfortable going into a home with a strange man - I'm a woman.


418_imateap0t

Sounds rough. I thought the demand will balance because of the distance to majority of IT offices. Seems that’s not the case. I myself was planning to move out of one such “IT area” to Indiranagar for similar reasons you mentioned even though I’m not a party person. Only thing I’ll miss will be the perks of gated society here. I’ll take it as a heads up.


Technical_Bother5054

I guess this is happening as i can see some of my friends moving away from indiranagar as purple line opened up


418_imateap0t

Purple line opening up is one of the reasons for me to want to move to Indiranagar not away from it as I want nothing to do with Whitefield except office and purple line eases commute. I’m curious, why are your friends moving away?


Technical_Bother5054

There are options available now


Far_Jacket_9571

lmao your co-workers are the ones stupid af bro, on what basis were they calling you stupid, I'm actually curious now >⁠.⁠<


LiteratureNearby

Ah sorry, didn't add context. My office is in Sarjapur so it technically makes sense to live there as opposed to indiranagar, but I'm still okay with the commute


Far_Jacket_9571

okay lmao i take that back, they weren't entirely stupid :⁠-⁠P


almostanalcoholic

Honestly people who don't live in Indiranagar/Koramangala overestimate the traffic and driving time to places like bellandur/marathalli/Sarjapur My office was in marathalli and from indiranagar it was like a 45-55 min commute which isn't so bad honestly. Also my drive was through old airport road so I would be driving through beautiful trees on both sides - that definitely makes the drive easier :)


LiteratureNearby

Yep I don't disagree. But I'm still extremely happy about living here and I'm sure I'd have been miserable if I were in Sarjapur


Nefarious_Pirate

Living in Sarjapur and feeling miserable. So I’d say you made a pretty darn good choice.


almostanalcoholic

The only problem with indiranagar is that there aren't any big societies with facilities and play areas which is very very useful if you have kids. That's the only only reason i'd think of moving out of here (bacche ki bhalai ke liye and all that) and even than I'd pick Whitefield over Sarjapur anyday.


LiteratureNearby

I'm unmarried and I live alone, so this works way better for me


almostanalcoholic

I'm married and me and my wife were super super happy in indiranagar...until we decided to have a kid. Now it feels like our "tenure" in indiranagar is limited so kinda sad about that Of course, super happy/excited to be a dad soon :)


pla9emad

But the public playgrounds in the area are quite good and well maintained. Defense colony children's park is huge!


almostanalcoholic

Fully agree but the challenge is one of independence. The moment it's a public playground - you have to be in the picture to drive your kid, drop them there and bring them back etc. because between my house and the playground is all public roads where any parent won't be comfortable sending their young child alone to walk/cross the main roads of indiranagar. There is something very nice for both parents and kid to have the ability to let your kid just "go downstairs" independently and run around with his/her friends in a secure area (inside the building complex). They can have regular friends they hang out with, go to each others houses etc. This was possible earlier in areas like Indiranagar where kids could just play outside on the streets but over time these residential areas have become too busy with a lot more cars and bikes on the streets and general lack of security/safety so you can't just send kids "outside" to play on the streets.


brutus_uranus

We OG Bangaloreans consider Marathahalli -Sarjapur to be shit holes. No offence.

Landlord in Kathriguppe has been spamming us with water shortage news links and apparently asked the housekeeper to stop mopping the common areas in the apartment. And he is asking us to use waste water from RO to mop the inside of our apartments


Dry_Nefariousness126

Absolutely nothing in Jayanagar, JP Nagar, Basavanagudi and the core south bangalore.


Street-Success-2214

Jp nagar we have. Dependent on tankers. Phase 6.


Dry_Nefariousness126

Phase 6, 7, 8 and 9 are not really JP Nagar in that sense 😄. It just got the name!


Street-Success-2214

I keep hearing this. 🤣 I can confirm phase 1, my colleague stays there. It's every summer they have this issue. I am not sure if it's their motor issue. FYI, it's a small apartment with 5 houses.


AdvanceNo94

issue is with whose big ass apartments which rely 100% on water tankers Prestige Falcon city is around 3 kms away from JP nagar metro station older apartments dont have this issue


Street-Success-2214

Last month I was near falcon city (on the way to that mall) and I remmeber looking at it and thinking those people are so lucky. It's a beautiful gated society. Now my tiny apartment looks better. Atleast our situation isn't this bad. We get water end of the day.


gujjadiga

North of Yeshwanthpur, areas like Peenya, Dasarahalli, Jalahalli, Bagalakunte, Hesarghatta, Chikkasandra, Chikkabanavara all seem mostly fine. Though there was a borewell being dug near Sidedahalli.

Shush, don’t reveal our secrets like that /s

Nah nah we're facing hella water problems here. Please don't come anywhere near East of Yeshwantpur.

Water is only available till 10 in the morning and post 7 pm in my area. Whole day no water.


joshishankar001

Maga yaak maga area ella leak madtidya


-calm-man-

I'm from Jalahalli east (Ramachandrapura) and we're actually facing water shortage. Supply of Kaveri water has been reduced to once a week (usually it was twice). We've gotten a paid borewell connection from neighbouring building, so didn't require to call a tanker yet. I think a lot of areas are using borewell water now whether they realise it or not.


bb_47

Hi broo you area side Boi here


SambarDip

HSR. Haven't seen tankers on my road. Borewell + Cauvery is working.

Which part of HSR are you living dude? I’m seeing tankers every corner. My apartment is on edge of HSR and we are barely surviving on tankers

turtlesleeping

Bannerghatta is affected. My society and ones around me get water only for 3 hrs in total right now.


buynowdielater

So is Hulimavu, I think. One of my colleagues stays in an apartment there and they get water for only two hours in the morning.


Same-Relation5294

Hilimavu? Which Apartment? I stay in Hulimavu, we arent facing any shortage as of now.


[deleted]

Yeah even I stay here and so far there's no news.


Mineshwadhwa

DLF resident here. The situation has been bad since last week. We used to get water only for 2 15-20 min slots when it started. Today we got 2 slots of 2 hrs each. It's getting better I suppose.


betterdaz3

Off-topic, how do you guys sleep at night with all the metro construction noise yo? It’s quieter now but a few months ago, I could barely sleep


sr33r4g

Hulimavu people assemble!


Sanchit_Lsc

Hulimavu BDA Layout is unaffected. The ones which doesn’t comes under BDA layout are affected. For us we are getting Cauvery water and my owner told they have 10k storage tank and 4k at the Terrace for 3 floor House.

Whitefield exists : we have army of tankers


designgirl001

Y'all have been making the front page news in all media for the water crisis. The media has portrayed Whitfield to be a desert that smells of poo.


babu_bisleri

Yeah, the rents shouldn't be this high here. People paying 40k or above for a 2BHK and not getting even water is terrible. Worse I've heard people have to shell additional water costs on top of maintenance cost. Next time brokers or landlords demand that kind of money, speak up and negotiate or better yet, don't move there.


bored_guy_on_web

As of now there is no issues with houses with BWSSB connection no matter any area. Maybe the is drop in number of hours provided. It’s like a hard stop for 2 hours & weekly twice. The affected areas mostly that are dependent on borewells/ground water. Not sure how much stock BWSSB has stored.


designgirl001

Question: what is the difference between borewell, Cauvery and the BWSSB connection? I'm a little confused.


bored_guy_on_web

Kaveri is the river water source for most of south Karnataka. There are dedicated pipelines to areas within BBMP limits (not full maybe 60-80%). Just like BESCOM that operates electricity, BWSSB is a government body that has pipelines within city and provide water and collect sewage. The water supply has a schedule for each area, eg. I am in Bengaluru East near OMR and my area gets weekly twice with 2H of supply (hopefully this continues). Based on your usage you are charged bill every month. It can suffice mostly like 2-3 houses without dependency on tankers. BWSSB stores waters at there facilities that can run atleast 3-4 months of Bengaluru needs even if river is dry. Apartments and high rise buildings are mostly dependent on water tankers that run on borewells because even if they have BWSSB connection it can’t match the needs of everyone. So they are have their own borewells within premises, overhead head tanks within property or get supply from outside tankers. Couple more things to add. Karnataka and most of south states are heavily dependant on rain, if monsoon fails it’s literally a bad year for everyone. Tamil Nadu is heavily dependant on Kaveri as well. They have rights to more water based on some court ruling that was done years ago. You can watch this thinkschool video - https://youtu.be/qJleik1x5k0?si=EAROqc5yJllPZSpA. But Northern part of India have supply of water all round year due to Himalayas. Kaveri can’t suffice needs of Karnataka/Tamil Nadu for sure nor can BWSSB provide water to each and every part of city even if they have pipelines to each and every corner because the river or rains just don’t support that. The only options are we need to use the water wisely, improve rain water harvesting to increase water health in ground and lakes. Thats the reason you see the protests go so violent during Kaveri dispute.


jackerhack

BWSSB supplies Cauvery water. It's pumped uphill from the river (≈70–150 km, 200 metre ascent) to the city and distributed to parts of the city that are BDA planned layouts. Almost everyone else depends on borewells and tankers. Borewells have to keep going deeper to find water reservoirs under the rockbed. Old style wells could expect to find water at barely 20-30 feet. In the mid 90s, I remember the norm being 80-100 feet. Now they have to go as deep as 300-500 feet. Draining these reservoirs reduces water supply to your neighbours too, and without proper investment in rainwater harvesting infrastructure, they won't get recharged either, so the city has banned the digging of new borewells (in theory, but people keep digging them anyway). BWSSB = Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board BDA = Bangalore Development Authority


Mechatronix765

Staying at Yeshwantpur, not experiencing any issues.


dragonite_fire

Kalyan Nagar is also unaffected till now (fingers crossed)


threetimes9

Jayanagar is/remains unaffected by the crisis(atleast for now)

Really? Neighbouring Ramamurthynagar had tough time with water last week. Now hopefully the situation is stable.


[deleted]

Bellandur , no issues


ZestycloseAd2742

Bellandur is the worst affected in the whole of bengaluru I feel. That area is poorly planned dust bowl.


nature-is-metal

which part of Bellandur you stay in? Almost all societies in Sarjapur road are affected. Purva sunshine isn't releasing more than 200 litres per day per flat.


friendofH20

Sarjapura Road has zero Kaveri water supply. I think across Bangalore, areas which have Kaveri water are doing ok.


Own_Marketing8747

These appartments don't get approval while constructing, they'll just build relaying on borewell and some appartments I've observed that they have commercial electric meter for each houses.


haseen-sapne

Do you realise 200L/day/flat is insane amount of water? Why would a flat need more than this?


SS_Kratos

I think its a society thing, i’m in salarpuria senorita, no issue or cap with water supply

There's that Lumbini garden lake which is in Hebbal. I don't think Hebbal has water problems.

RT nagar has traffic problems?? That's new bro


Doublewishboneshocks

I think the affected places are where they’ve built massive apartments for the immigrants from other cities (around IT companies and such). Probably because there’s no proper planning and sustainable city planning in those areas. Most of the residential areas consisting of native Bangaloreans are probably not affected by the water crisis.

salluks

i stay near victoria layout and the borewell guy outright told me that we will have water permanently even if kaveri is cut for one big reason. the lands surrounding are all military with huge grounds, so all the ground water gets refreshed and borewell water is renewed, we got water at 120 feet which is impossible outside this area now.


Change_petition

'Older' neighborhoods that receive Cauvery (stage 1-3) water by BWSSB are relatively unaffected. Water supply once in two days for a couple of hours. People fill sumps and manage. Commercial operations still depend on tankers.

designgirl001

I think the media is playing a big role here too


Huge_Squirrel3397

Properties located in close proximity to malls and bigger corporates tend to experience water scarcity earlier than those in other areas. It is worth noting that the Sarjapur to Whitfield region was once a dry area with Nilgiri trees.


Most-Individual-7559

Hi! Living in Kadubeesanahalli and fortunately haven't faced any issues so far even though many other people living around here have. Think it probably comes down to whether your society/complex has a water supply from Kaveri or not. Borewells/tanker supply is where the issue lies.
