Watch: Heavy rain causes water-logging, disrupts traffic in Gurugram
Rafts out, cars submerged: Pics, videos viral as Gurugram goes under after heavy rains lash Delhi-NCR
Gurgaon is resembling an ocean after heavy rains and waterlogging inundated the Millennium City and left people wading through pools of water to commute anywhere.
Incessant rains lashed the Gurgaon on Wednesday, submerging low-lying areas in waist-deep water and bringing traffic on key roads to a grinding halt.
Video after video posted on social media showed how continuous rain brought the city to its knees with major roads fully drowned.
Twitterati was shocked and amused by how the modern city was washed over by rain. Within an hour of rain, #DelhiRains, #GurgaonRains and #GurgaonFlooded were trending on Twitter.
The level of water was so high that many crucial underpasses were completely filled with water to the brim.
The National Highway near Hero Honda Chowk was completely flooded and the water soon seeped into services lanes.
Many Twitter users shared photos and videos of the Golf Course Road, one of the poshest areas in Gurgaon, chock-a-blocked with the rainwater.
"With so much of rain water logging in Gurgaon today why can't we get into rainwater harvesting? The water shortage will get over with the passage of time," wrote one Twitter user.
The water soon found its way into many residential complexes and people shared photos from their balconies of the chaos down on the ground.
The waterlogging was so intense in some areas of Sector 27 and 28 in DLF Phase I that rafts had to be deployed to evacuate people. In other places, people were seen swimming through waist-deep water to get to a safe location.
According to the Indian Meteorological Department, poor drainage and high-intensity rain in short duration led to the scenes witnessed in Gurgaon today.
Deputy director general regional meteorological office Anand Sharma said, "Incessant rain from 8.30 am to 11.30 am led to waterlogging especially in areas around South Delhi and Gurgaon."
He said that Palam and Aya Nagar recorded rainfall of around 60 mm during those three hours.
Sharma said that rains will continue even tomorrow in the region but will become weaker significantly.
