The state capital of Bengaluru is currently experiencing a serious water crisis, which the Karnataka government promises to handle with all required measures. On Tuesday, Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar promised to do whatever it took to guarantee the city had a sufficient supply of water. 

The water situation in Bengaluru is getting worse every day. The Karnataka government has taken prompt action to deal with this dire situation as the local people are facing water shortage. Due to water shortage in the IT city, private water tankers – who charge between ₹500 and ₹2,000 – have profited greatly.
The Karnataka government has issued a warning to private operators, stating that their tankers will be seized if they fail to register by March 7. 

Shivakumar additionally disclosed that in order to deliver water to metropolitan areas, officials have been directed by the state government to use water sources located within a 15-kilometer radius of cities. Bengaluru's water problem has gotten out of control, and the state administration is committed to look into every avenue to deal with it and make sure the city's citizens have access to clean water.

The most wards in Uttara Kannada and the most villages in Tumakuru district, totaling 746, were noted in a revenue department report. A total of 174 villages and 120 wards in the Bengaluru Urban area are identified as vulnerable.

Chief Minister of Karnataka Siddaramaiah has declared that the government will provide emergency numbers along with control rooms at the Taluk level. Jobs, drinkable water, and fodder for animals will all be ensured by task forces functioning at the Taluk level.

The Deputy Chief Minister, who thinks the Mekedatu reservoir project could help Bengaluru's water problems, was heard criticizing the Central government for delaying it. He stated that the Mekedatu project had been started specifically to guarantee Bengaluru's water supply. The project has not been approved, despite our padyatra and pressure on the Center to approve it. Given the seriousness of the situation, the Center need to at least authorize it right away.
