About Bangalore
Bangalore, also known as Bengaluru, is the capital of Karnataka, India, and is famed as the city of gardens and its role as the tech hub of India.
Water Situation
The tap water in Bangalore originates primarily from the Cauvery River, augmented by rainwater and groundwater sources. It typically contains minerals such as calcium and magnesium. In recent times, rapid urbanization has affected the water quality, although measures are being implemented to counteract pollution. The Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB) is the government body overseeing water quality, while the Bangalore Water Supply Company is responsible for distribution.
