Heavy rains lashed Delhi-NCR on Saturday, leading to significant waterlogging and traffic disruptions across the region.
Key areas such as Connaught Place, Sangam Vihar, Mahipalpur, Dwarka, and the NH-48 corridor were severely affected.

The heavy rainfall caused widespread waterlogging, disrupting traffic and daily activities. Key traffic corridors, including NH-48 and roads near Dhaula Kuan, were severely affected. A fallen tree on Mathura Road further compounded traffic issues. Shopkeepers in Connaught Place faced challenges as rainwater entered some establishments. The waterlogging near the airport and other critical areas posed risks to commuters and delayed travel. The sharp drop in temperatures provided some relief from the heat but added to the inconvenience caused by the rains.
