The drinking water plant at Bengaluru’s Shivajinagar Bus Stand has become a cause for concern after videos shared online exposed its unhygienic state. The plant reportedly lacks taps, is stained with gutka residues, and is surrounded by trash, raising serious public health risks.
A video posted by Pulse of Bengaluru highlighted the issue, warning about water contamination and urging citizens to demand safer water facilities. Social media users expressed outrage, calling for stricter laws, public education on cleanliness, and a ban on harmful substances like gutka.
Shivajinagar, a key location in Bengaluru’s Central Business District, is represented by Congress MLA Rizwan Arshad. Calls for action to ensure clean and safe drinking water at public facilities are growing louder.
