At least ten people have died across India following intense monsoon rains that caused widespread flooding and disruption on Thursday. Roads in several regions were submerged, forcing people to wade through knee-deep water, while traffic slowed to a crawl, creating long jams. In Delhi and the surrounding National Capital Region, multiple rounds of heavy rain led to both improved air quality and severe waterlogging, uprooted trees, and gridlocked streets.

Reports indicated flooding in East Delhi, Sangam Vihar, New Delhi Railway Station, Burari, and other areas. Traffic was heavily disrupted on ITO, Rohtak Road, and Mehrauli-Badarpur Road. In Rohini, a building collapse during the rain killed three people, according to PTI. The Delhi Fire Service also reported several incidents of trees falling in East of Kailash, Kalkaji-Govindpuri, and Ranjit Nagar, one of which damaged a parked car.

Meteorologists warned that heavy to very heavy rainfall may continue in several parts of India over the next few days. Local authorities have advised residents in low-lying areas to remain cautious and avoid unnecessary travel.
