Bengaluru is infamous for its infrastructure that leads to flooding of subways and underpasses during the rains and leads to accidents and deaths.

While the woman died, her relatives were rescued from the vehicle. Reacting to the news report, Dahaad actor Gulshan Devaiah called the flooded underpasses in Bengaluru “death wells” and appealed to the government to look into the matter for the safety of the common people.
