Heavy Rain Leads To Severe Waterlogging In Delhi, Gurugram

Huge traffic jams, heavily waterlogged roads, vehicles breaking down, scores of people stuck threw life out of gear as heavy rain hit Gurugram Monday afternoon. NH8 Jaipur Expressway, Badshahpur, Manesar and Sohna were the worst-hit. Several parts of Noida, Ghaziabad, Gurugram, and Delhi received heavy showers accompanied by strong winds, leading to a sharp drop in temperature. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) had earlier issued a yellow alert for September 1, warning of rain, thunderstorms, lightning, and gusty winds in the afternoon and evening. The forecast proved accurate, with heavy rainfall turning the skies dark during daylight and forcing commuters to switch on headlights.
