Pune: 

Incessant rains continued to lash Pune throughout night. Vehicular traffic in several areas in the city was thrown completely out of gear because of water logging following the heavy rains on Monday night.

Vehicular traffic on the Pune-Mumbai Expressway remained unaffected.

The downpour exposed the woeful drainage system along the city roads. Choked drains resulted in waterlogging up to ankle-deep level in several localities.

Among the worst-hit areas were Pune Camp, Baner road, Raja Bahadur Mills road, Bund Garden road, Karve road, Kothrud, the peth areas, Laxmi road and Bajirao road besides parts of Pune-Ahmednagar road and Yerawada.

The stretch between near Fadgate police chowki saw major water logging.

Several spots in Pune Camp like Centre Street, M.G. Road, East Street, Shivaji market, Boottee Street and Modikhana, besides the Pune police commissionerate, experienced heavy water logging.
