Bengaluru: Business Tycoon Anand Mahindra made special appeal to drivers after he came across a video of Mahindra Thar that easily drove across a flooded road in Bengaluru. Although Mahindra has expressed happiness that his company’s vehicle saved lives of the passengers by not drowning them, he also requested people not to take undue risk.

“I am gratified that the car kept its passengers mobile and safe. Also grateful for our customer;s faith in our cars. But I worry about people taking undue risks. I appeal to customers that overconfidence should not lead to attempting hazardous exploits”, tweeted the Mahindra Group Chairman.

Earlier on September 8, Bengaluru’s Epsilon Villas, a housing complex to entrepreneurs like Rishad Premji, Roman Saini, Varun Berry, flooded with water for over three days. Billionaires and millionaires of the city commuted on tractors and took shelter in hotels as the city completely flooded due to heavy rains.
