A day after several passengers were seen taking tractors as roads leading to the Bengaluru airport were waterlogged amid heavy rain in the city, a senior official said on Tuesday they are doing everything to ease out the situation. Jayaraj Shanmugam, the chief operating officer of Bangalore International Airport Limited, said the water logging in and around the area was because of the “unprecedented” rain.
“The amount of rainfall was unprecedented so waterlogging occurred. The staff is ensuring that no inconvenience occurs to anyone,” Shanmugam told news agency ANI. “There was no tractor at the airport, it was outside at Begur junction. We are putting in additional pumps,” Shanmugam added.
