Since they are known for being most employee-centric and empathetic for their well being, going above and beyond to make sure their employees live a happy life, even if at the cost of business, I would say yes, they will give permannent WFH to anyone asking for it.

Is there a possibility that companies would allow wfh for 2-3 months for water scarcity

Bangalore, my 'Karm Bhoomi' and the heart of the global software industry, is facing an acute #water crisis. With taps running dry and a pricing war waging over water tankers, the situation is reminiscent of Arrakis, where only the rich had access to water. Our maid now arrives earlier to ensure dishes are washed before the water ceases at noon and later comes to do other chores. Getting to work is another battle—an exercise in managing daily routines with packaged water, only to be stuck in the city's traffic with blaring heat.

Unlike Arrakis, though, Bangalore is supposed to have numerous lakes and a functioning water cycle as part of the city's ecosystem. So how did we get here?

Inadequate rainfall and overexploitation of groundwater resources (47% of borewells under Govt. Board (BMRDA & BWSSB) in the city have ceased to yield water), coupled with inefficient….

Bengaluru Faces Severe Flooding Amid Heavy Rains

Journalist

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Hello people, 

Monday is here :) 

Welcome to the watercooler: the place for any conversations that feel a bit small to create a dedicated post. Manager acting shady today? Had a heavy weekend and still not recovered? Office food was stale? This is the place to share anything random.

Look forward to hearing from you all :)

"The extent of water surface in Bengaluru during 1973 was 2,324 hectares. Over the last 50 years, due to reckless concretization, the water surface has shrunk considerably. Of the remaining water bodies, 98% of lakes are encroached upon and 90% of them are fed with untreated sewage or industrial effluents. Naturally, this has impacted the recharge of the groundwater table as well," IISc's Prof TV Ramachandra had told TOI.

Bengaluru's severe water crisis and traffic congestion are prompting tech giants to consider relocating from the $245 billion IT hub. The city's civic challenges may impact India's IT industry landscape, compelling companies to explore emerging cities.

If they buiild more "lake-view" apartments, there will be no more lakes left, not that there are many left.

Sunday Gossip : Let’s discuss this in comments

What measures your office is implementing regarding remote work policies amidst the water scarcity situation in Bengaluru?

Data Analyst

I see lots of posts about water crisis in Bangalore like people going mall to 💩. Office saying employees to work from home. So many things I am hearing. But I never felt that water shortage. Just wanted to know how real is this ?

Is water crisis is real?

This water shortage thing in Bangalore is pretty depressing.

There is an extreme shortage of water but no one on this planet seems serious about it. People are busy making memes around it , poking political parties , blaming the government. The government is blaming other governments and that's it.

Imagine there were 280 lakes in the city now there are only 15. Imagine once Lalbagh and cubbon park were connected and there were elephants living there.

How can a random land mafia dry up the lake and build stupid buildings illegally purely for their profits? They will profit from it but whose resources they took? Nature's resources that were meant for everyone.

That land mafia must be chilling in Atlantis hotel in the rooftop swimming pool and here we are drying up.

In the end , only the one sitting at the top would benefit from it and the one who will suffer is common person and they are still not realising how badly they will suffer in future.

If you don't have water what are you going to drink? 500 2000 notes smoothie? No amount of money can give water. These land mafias and politicians will import fresh water for their families to drink after depleting Indian resources. What are you going to do ?

And then this government brings  CAA law to bring more people to our country where the existing citizens don't have enough resources.

WAKE UP SAVE INDIA FROM POLITICIANS. 

Anyway , this is not a propaganda post against any political party because all parties are at the end corrupted, they will exploit everything to make money and then safeguard their family by sending them in foreign countries. The one who will suffer is us.

People are not serious about Bangalore's condition. A rant post.

Does IBM offer work from home? And cab facility from BCIT bangalore??

Product Marketing Manager

New to the city and it makes no sense to me whatsoever. Having lived through all major metros in the country, Bangalore feels like a Tier-2 town covered with Tier-1 wrapping paper.

Why does this city instantly become water logged in 30 seconds of rain?

Probably because they built buildings where lakes provided natural refuge to rain water bro.
