Bangalore is the capital city of the Indian state of Karnataka, has been experiencing significant water crises in recent years due to various factors:

Rapid Urbanization: It's a witnessed rapid population growth and urbanization, leading to increased demand for water. The city's infrastructure has struggled to keep pace with this growth, resulting in inadequate water supply to meet the needs of its residents.

Depletion of Water Resources: The city heavily relies on groundwater for its water supply. However, over-extraction of groundwater has led to depletion of aquifers, causing a decline in water levels and quality. Additionally, encroachment on lakes, wetlands, and other water bodies has further reduced water availability.

Erratic Rainfall Patterns: Bangalore's water supply is heavily dependent on rainfall, with the city receiving most of its water during the monsoon season. However, erratic rainfall patterns, including prolonged droughts and inconsistent monsoons, have led to water scarcity during dry periods.

Lack of Water Management: Inefficient water management practices, including leakages in the water distribution system and poor maintenance of infrastructure, contribute to water loss and wastage. Inadequate sewage treatment facilities also result in contamination of water sources, further exacerbating the water quality issues.

Climate Change: Climate change has impacted Bangalore's water resources, leading to changes in precipitation patterns, increasing temperatures, and greater evaporation rates. These factors further strain the city's already limited water supply.

Solution:

The government should prioritize urging IT companies to implement work-from-home policies for their employees. However, instead of focusing on this crucial aspect, the government appears to be emphasizing the growth of the real estate sector.
