Within a mere hour of unseasonal rain hitting Mumbai, there were reports of crawling trains, waterlogging, shut subways and choked highways, some of it thanks to incomplete concreting work. Unseasonal rain wreaked havoc across the city and suburbs

Unseasonal rain wreaked havoc across the city and suburbs, leading to waterlogging, shut subways and crawling trains. Sources said both the eastern and western express highways were majorly affected. Incomplete concreting work added to the problems. One lane on each side of the highway was rendered unusable owing to choked drains, forcing vehicles to squeeze through limited space and significantly slowing down traffic movement.
