It’s been eight years, but Bharati still closes her eyes, every time she passes by the storm water drain at Lingarajapuram in Bengaluru. On May 31, 2009, as rains lashed Bengaluru, Bharati was walking with her five-year-old son Abhishek when he suddenly slipped through an opening in the storm water drain. His body has still not been recovered. Since that tragedy, at least eight others have been washed away in the drains. Seven out of eight of these victims were children, and four of their bodies are yet to be recovered. They have been buried unceremoniously in the sludge and garbage.
