Mumbai received nearly 250 mm of rainfall in the 24 hours ending 8 am on Wednesday, accounting for around 45 per cent of the city's average rainfall for June. Despite the heavy downpour, normal life in the city remained largely unaffected, Mumbai Mayor Ritu Tawde said.

Speaking to the media after inspecting several rain-affected locations across the city, she further stated that the smooth functioning of civic infrastructure and the quick drainage of water from low-lying areas reflected the effectiveness of the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation's (BMC) pre-monsoon preparations.
