Weather office expects heavy rain to lash Bengaluru

India Meteorological Department (IMD) has forecast heavy rain in Bengaluru and other districts of Karnataka on Wednesday.

Authorities in Bengaluru are keeping a close watch as the drive against encroachment has still not been completed in areas which were flooded due to incessant rain recently.

A yellow alert has been issued for Chikkamagaluru, Mysuru, Chamarajanagar, Hassan, Kodagu and Shivamogga districts of the state.

Bengaluru is going through a spell of cold weather due to cloudy skies. The adjoining districts of Kolar, Chikkaballapur and Bengaluru Rural are also likely to get light showers.

A yellow alert has also been issued in districts located in the central region of Karnataka — Chitradurga, Davanagere districts.

However, IMD has stated that the rain will slow down in the regions of north Karnataka.
