On the other hand, Mr. K.T. Rama Rao, the Information Technology and Urban Development Minister of Telangana tweeted about the Bengaluru rain floods.  

Mr. K.T. Rama Rao said, “To all those who are mocking the water-logged Bengaluru: Our cities are our primary economic engines driving the States’/Country’s growth.  With rapid urbanisation & sub-urbanisation, infrastructure is bound to crumble as we haven’t infused enough capital into upgrading the same.”

He further tweeted “No Indian city (including my state’s capital city) today is immune to the disastrous consequences of climate change.  If India has to continue to grow, we need well-laid, concerted capital allocations of Union & State Govts combined into radical improvement in infrastructure.”

In another thread of the tweet, Mr. K.T. Rama Rao highlighted about the need of urban reforms and governance to deal with such flash floods.   He wrote “We need bold reforms in urban planning & governance.  Get away from a conservative mindset & thing radical.  Clean Roads, Clean Water, Clean Air & Better Stormwater management systems are not hard to build.  We need capital infusion: urge @HardeepSPuri Ji to plan this & happy to help (sic.)”

The tweets of KTR were in the view of recent flash flood situation in Bengaluru, due to heavy to very heavy rainfall.  Constant rainfall in Karnataka has caused major troubles including waterlogged roads, vehicular movement disturbance and other such flood related issues.
