If you’re travelling from Delhi then it’s bad during office hours. But not as bad as Bangalore, Metro connectivity is much better, I feel housing and societies are also much better.

With this, he triggered a debate. While ew people are asking why the debate is happening, others are busy stating the important points.

“Found an article to highlight Gurgaon situation during rain.. kindly check the facts before putting any comparisons.. actually bad infrastructure situation is the same for many metro cities.. we hear similar news for Mumbai too in the months of June-July.. hope govt will start taking concrete steps towards development,” commented a LinkedIn user.

Another person wrote, “So well said. Pls, do one more campaign. Get all the Delhi and Gurgaon folks who are in Bengaluru by droves, back to Gurgaon. Bengaluru problem will be automatically solved and these folks will be back to the proclaimed heaven.”

Meanwhile, amid the worsening situation in Bengaluru, several firms in the region are being called out for asking people to report to the office despite the floods. “Only handful companies are allowing work from home/hybrid models now. Most want you to come to Bangalore. WFH can only be a soft commitment and not everyone can travel 2/3 days a week to Bengaluru. Unfortunately Public transport here doesn’t allow us to do so,” wrote a Twitter user.
