Finally, something which explains what's happening and how this flooding was not some random occurrence. I had been witnessing these areas getting flooded for few years now and it baffled me how can this not be explained. Sir, your apt narration, crisp logic and crystal clear storytelling is what we needed. It really warmed me when you visited the temple to actually support the fact that history has all answers. This video was at par with any Nat Geo documentary :D
On par with Nat Geo? Wow, that's a compliment. The flooding was not random at all, it is entirely predictable (only the extent will vary, or how lucky we are).
Eagerly waiting foe Part 3. Yet again a fantastic explanation of the situation plaguing us today. I stay in close proximity of the Vibhutipura lake, never knew about the existence of the temple, let alone the stone inscriptions detailing the history of the lake. I feel blessed to follow your channel.
We have such rich history which is often missed out. Every region in India has such features. I come from Rajasthan where our royals and rich philanthropic citizens created beautiful step wells to ease water scarcity. This should be taught in schools.
Arun, you truly tank-ed up my knowledge about my own ooru! The explanations are clear, the data researched and presented in a simple manner. and you even ran down the Vibhutipara tank:). Thanks for making this.
Hi, very very interesting and many thanks for creating this. When you said that there has never been any lakes in BLR, it "still" intrigues me. I await your ep. 3 eagerly, to understand this better. Until this vdo, my understanding was that BLR had around 300 lakes and put of which because of encroachment, has been reduced to around 80 and that all of these were inter-connected, which i believe you are still indicating and will shed more light in the Ep 3. & that due to unfettered encroachment we have maybe tampered with this interconnected cannal system But, the above theory fails, in case the concept of Lake itself is not there and all along we had only tanks Confused, no doubt - but would like to know more
All our water bodies were man-made tanks. And yes, we had over 1000 of them in the past. They were made for a purpose - mainly agriculture. They filled up every year, and often dried up in the summer, or when there were droughts. We do not have natural lakes. All our tanks were created by engineering the land to our needs, and that has evolved over the centuries. Once agriculture stopped/reduced, the need for these tanks also diminished. Will be explained better in the next Part. This makes us fundamentally different from a riverfront city or a coastal city - there is no natural, perennial water source
Very good explanation. Why the government or the bbmp is not seeking the advice of the people who knows reasons for flooding when their system utterly failed?
Great video!
As good as the first.
Looking forward to the third one.
Very interesting

Very true. All water-scarce areas innovated and developed unique solutions.

Tumba tanks
Thanks, keep it up
Sir Thank you for explaining it was brilliant!
Excellent analysis. This should be taught to students in school atleast in Bengaluru.

Thanks for a well analysed video.
Great work Arun. Loved this. Waiting for the next episode.
Now I know what the structure in madiwala tank is, sluice gates !
Yes! Do share a picture
Simple and easy explanation well presented. Waiting eagerly for Part 3. Please reduce the background music, it is distracting.
Noted, thanks!
Thank you for this information
Please reduce the background sound a little
Waiting for next video
Very good explanation. Why the government or the bbmp is not seeking the advice of the people who knows reasons for flooding when their system utterly failed?
Waiting eagerly for part 3.
excellent
👏
Excellent presentation. Just got to know the difference between a tank and a lake. Wish I could see Part 1

Great video. May I suggest you cut back on the background music and the cheers. It cuts down your voice and is needless distraction.
Thanks for the feedback, will keep this in mind for future episodes
Excellent information sir 👏👏
We have a tank bund road in Bangalore. Probably it is called tank bund for a reason?🤔
Superb video, very informative. Rulers have a lot to take from this video. But will they listen?
It is a democracy - we are the 'rulers'! The more we all citizens know about the real causes, the better chance we have of addressing it
Sir u r information is right but background music is disturbing
Fascinating. Very good insights. Please cut out the background music.
Point noted!
Please share the link of part 1
ruclips.net/video/HJ0HrDSQH2w/видео.html
Can you send a link to Part 1? Couldn't find it
ruclips.net/video/HJ0HrDSQH2w/видео.html
The back ground music is annoying
Plz remove background music. We can’t hear your voice clearly
