The heavy rainfall has caused widespread waterlogging, disrupting daily life in Kolkata and nearby areas. Commuters, including schoolchildren and office-goers, faced significant challenges due to reduced public transport and traffic snarls. The situation is particularly concerning for low-lying areas prone to flooding. The IMD has issued warnings for extremely heavy rainfall in Paschim Medinipur, Jhargram, and Bankura districts, while very heavy rainfall is expected in Purba Medinipur, South 24 Parganas, Purulia, Howrah, Hooghly, and the Bardhaman districts. The risk of further waterlogging and potential damage to infrastructure remains high.
