At least four people died in the incidents related to rain, when the torrent of the downpour threw themselves overnight, the capital of West Bengal, Kalkata-Jen days before the Durga Puja festival enthusiastically celebrated throughout the state. The heavy rain on Monday evening and soon on Tuesday left a large part of the city waterlogged, paralyzing traffic and everyday life.
Which areas do the knees face deep water?
Several areas in Calcuttus and its surroundings, including Jadavpur, Baghajatin, Salt Lake and Golf Green, have experienced rooting the knee, stopping traffic, public transport and normal activities.
The videos showed vehicles stuck on the main roads, wading through the passports at several intersections, and the metro services paused along the long section of the blue line when the city tried to cope with one of the most difficult rain spells in the years.
The main roads were strictly influenced by the traffic movement, while the vehicles stuck for hours at key intersections such as Circus, Gariahat, Behala and College Street. The long growth was reported to EM bypass, Ajc Bose Road and Central Avenue, while several smaller stripes in the south and central kolkata were completely cut off.
Many schools declared holidays because students and employees could not reach their destinations through the streets. The inhabitants took X (formerly Twitter) to express frustration, and many described the rain as “catastrophic” and worse than the Amphan cyclone.
The downpour intensity was higher in the southern and eastern parts of Calcutta, KMC said. Garia Kamdahari recorded 332 mm of precipitation in just a few hours, followed by Jodhpur Park (285 mm), Kalighat (280 mm), Topsia (275 mm) and Balllygunge (264 mm). Thantania received 195 mm in the northern Kolkata.
The Office for the weather authority warned that heavy rainfall was likely to continue the districts of Purb and Paschim Medinipur, South 24 Parganas, Jhargram and Bankura on Wednesday. He added that another fresh low-pressure area is likely to be formed on the eastern-central and neighboring Northern Gulf of Bengal around 25 September.
