Residents In the wee hours of October 18, residents of Hafiz Baba Nagar, Chandrayangutta ran to save their life after being jolted out of sleep as water gushed into their houses with great force. Most then spent long hours on terrace of their buildings.
Within minutes, this high-density area was submerged with water reaching as high as four feet. The water that gushed into bylanes washed away cars, bikes and whatever came into its way.
“It was 1:30am on October 18, the day we will never forget,” said Mohammed Khaja, a resident of Hafiz Baba Nagar. “I heard screams accompanied by sound of water gushing. Within seconds, the water gushed into our house and we ran to the terrace. After six hours, we got help from authorities. Around 15 lakh worth valuables, which include cars, furniture and electronics were washed away. Fortunately, there was no loss of life.”
