Mumbai has witnessed incessant rains in the past few days, resulting in record rainfall in the month of June, but the lake levels say otherwise.

Though the rainfall led to a slight increase in the water level of the seven lakes that supply water to Mumbai, only Bhatsa Lake recorded a rise in 1.47 metres. Even Middle Vaitarna (0.89), Upper Vaitarna (0.35) and Modak Sagar (0.35) have shown a slight increase, despite the downpour in most parts of the city.
