Amidst a severe water crisis in Bengaluru's RR Nagar and Pattanagere areas, the lone water purification plant has initiated water rationing, offering water canisters at Rs 5 each. Residents endure long queues, limited to one canister per family. Operating for just two hours in the morning and evening, locals, including the elderly, face hardships accessing water. Allegations arise of discrimination against those accompanied by family members. Even residents of gated communities face scarcity, as borewells dry up, and private tanker supplies diminish due to government regulations.
