A video was shared by a community X handle called citizens movement and it wrote, “The state of traffic jams today in Bengaluru. The cab driver was having his lunch on the way! This will be conveniently ignored by @siddaramaiah @DKShivakumar government. Because the problem of #Bengaluru doesn't affect their power.”
Here is the video
The video is said to be from Bengaluru’s Outer Ring Road which faced a massive traffic jam on Wednesday. Several commuters were stuck in the traffic for long hours and reached home late on Wedenday. A user said, “Decongesting is the only option for Bangalore. There must be a full stop on multi housing Apartments & any further new tech parks in Bangalore. All new ventures must be directed to other neglected towns & cities of Karnataka so that migration to Bangalore is discouraged.”

Another user said, “I am commuting daily from HAL road to Whitefield. See the state of the road from Yemlur junction till Marthahalli bridge. Your back will break. So patched road. It's a 20 min ride and we reach Whitefield in 45 min or 1 hr. Any government at the helm is not bothered to correct the traffic.”
Even the metro trains are overcrowded during the peak hours as many commuters travel to office using the public transport. The employees who work in east Bengaluru’s IT parks have a list of civic complaints and demand the government to fix the roads. The longstanding traffic problem in Bengaluru’s ORR has become a nightmare for daily commuters.
