Heavy rains disrupted normal life in Delhi, causing widespread waterlogging and significant traffic snarls on Tuesday. Key areas like Minto Bridge, Feroz Shah Road, and Patel Chowk Metro Station were severely affected.

The deluge led to the closure of the Minto Bridge underpass for nearly three hours, prompting Delhi Police to issue multiple traffic advisories. Alternative routes became necessary as waterlogging and potholes plagued major roads.

Many commuters reported extensive delays and were forced to find alternate paths to reach their destinations. The Delhi PWD worked to clear the waterlogged areas, but the inundation caused major disruptions across the city.
