The National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) has rushed three teams to Mumbai to tackle waterlogging in several parts of the city, which has been receiving heavy rainfall. Earlier today, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) issued an Orange alert for Mumbai and predicted rains in the city for the next 24 hours.

Three teams of NDRF were shifted from Pune to Mumbai as a precautionary measure, the NDRF said today. Routine movement of commuters on suburban trains on a few lines was affected due to waterlogging of the tracks. City buses on certain routes along low-lying areas were also diverted.
