Several roads were inundated and many areas saw power cuts as rainfall accompanied by thunderstorms and gales lashed the city on May 10 (Friday), causing inconvenience to the citizens.
Pedestrians were seen wading through knee-deep water on the roads in Moghalrajpuram, Benz Circle, Sanathnagar, M.G. Road and other areas.
“Rain water was flowing on the roads in streets and on the National Highway as the garbage was not cleared from the drains. Many junctions in the city saw traffic snarls,” said S. Hanumantha Rao, a two-wheeler rider.
