The city was inundated with 115mm of rain in just 33 hours and the fallout was immediate, waterlogged roads, crawling traffic and a string of rain-related incidents across the city’s busiest stretches on Wednesday. On some of Gurugram's busiest roads including the NH-48 service lane near Narsinghpur, Basai, Kadipur and Sohna Road, traffic came to a standstill leaving commuters stranded for hours. “Several vehicles reportedly got stuck in the standing water and broke down. Sectors 29, 31, 45 and 56 have flooded before in basements.
None of this was new. And that's the real story.
