Bengaluru : , Nov 23, 2009 – Chief Minister Basavaraj Bombmai of Karnataka visited Manyata Tech Park, Bengaluru on Tuesday.This is the biggest technological hub in the city that has become a lake due to incessant rainfall. After arriving here, I noticed that rainwater is now flowing backwards into campus rather than going outside.Storm water is also leaking into the stormwater drain.”I have requested the tech park management for things to be fixed on campus.We will also take care of the repairs outside.” he stated.
The campus has some engineering problems that need to be fixed.
Bommai stated that BBMP officers had been instructed to work together and fix the issues.
Manyata Tech Park is located near Nagawara lake on Outer Ring Road.
It was built around the Hebbal Valley stormwater drain.It is unlikely that the water will leave the campus.Authorities will need to devise a plan for avoiding such problems in the future.
The BBMP complained about the Park’s deriving of the natural flow and encroaching upon an open drain.
Sources in the BBMP said that if nothing is done and this isn’t rectified, then the situation will recur.
Manyata Embassy Business Park, also known as Manyata Tech Park, is one of the most important software centers in Bengaluru.It covers 300 acres.The majority of top Indian and international companies employ more than 150,000 people.
