The Namma Bengaluru Foundation (NBF) is determined to bring the water-logged potholes problem in the city under control with its art installations. First it was a big crocodile swimming in a pothole, and now it is an anaconda with the bloody hand of a human sticking out of its mouth.

The city is now facing increased cases of dengue and malaria,” reports Scoop Whoop. While the anaconda has managed to scare passersby, there is no reaction from the cities corporation to repair roads in the city. Water logged potholes are not only a danger to cars, bikes and other vehicles, but are a breeding ground for mosquitoes, leading to the rise of Dengue and Malaria cases in the city. Sridhar Pabbisetty, the CEO of NBF told The News Minute “There is humour, art, sarcasm in the craft, but more importantly, there is a deeper message in it that we are trying to deliver.” The anaconda comes two months after the crocodile was put in a pothole in the city by another artist named Baadal Nanjundaswamy.
