Someone thought that it was wise to construct an IT Park right on top of the river..

In Google Maps, It's still marked as a waterbody "Nala Pani ki Rao"

People might have forgotten the river/stream But the stream definitely didnt forget where it had to flow.

In 2020 after a spell of monsoon rains, the stream overflowed and the IT Park flooded!
