[Advisory πŸ”΄] Just faced a life or death situation in this rain...

I've lived in Bangalore for five years now, but I've never seen anything like today. The rain has been relentless since morning.

As I left home, the rain was heavy but manageable. By the time I reached the Sony Signal, it started raining very heavily. The roads are extremely bad and the traffic is just not moving.

The worst part is that while I was on 80 Feet Road, my scooter stalled. The water had risen above the exhaust and my scooter got fucked.

So, I locked my scooter and parked it on the side. suddenly I saw an electrical cable fall on the ground and it started sparking just 10 meters away from me. I got really scared and started pushing my scooter to my friends place nearby. Once, I reached there, I ordered an Ola Auto. The worst thing is that it cost me 500 to travel 6kms today.

Once the driver came at my friends place he hiked up the price and said that he will cancel it otherwise. I was already so scared that I left my scooter at my friends place and reached home. I am literally shaking while writing this post.

ADVISORY: PLEASE DO NOT LWEAVE YOUR HOMES UNLESS YOU ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO.

I am getting information from all over Bangalore that scammers are out there trying to make money from people in desperate need.

Someone chaos tested Bengaluru and it failed miserably. This whole year for me has made me want to leave Bengaluru and I feel that would be actually a good thing to do.
