₹25,000 aid will be given for rain-hit houses in Bengaluru: Karnataka CM Basavaraj Bommai File Photo

Karnataka CM Basavaraj Bommai has announced an aid of ₹25,000 to those whose houses have been affected due to heavy rains in capital Bengaluru. As heavy rainfall hit Karnataka’s capital Bengaluru, two labourers drowned at a pipeline work site while many houses were inundated. The labourers identified as Dev Vrat from Bihar and Ankit Kumar from Uttar Pradesh, drowned after the water level inside a pipeline they were laying at Ullal in Bengaluru suddenly increased due to heavy showers on Tuesday evening, the police said as per PTI. 

The third worker Trilok had a lucky escape as he got out of the Cauvery water pipeline just in time. Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai, who visited some of the rain-affected areas in the capital on Wednesday, announced a compensation of Rs 5 lakh each to the kin of two migrant workers who died while working.
