As the monsoon rains continued, several parts of Northern and Southern India experienced heavy downpours on Monday.

Excessive rainfall led to significant waterlogging in major cities across India, including Hyderabad, Delhi, Noida, and Srinagar. Here are the top videos of rainfall in affected states:

Telangana

A public transport bus was stuck in flood water under a Road under Bridge (RUB) in Nizamabad and the passengers were brought out of it by authorities and local residents. Heavy rains across the state, including Hyderabad, disrupted daily life, causing waterlogging and traffic congestion.

 

On Monday, lightning strikes in Jogulamba Gadwal district of Telangana resulted in the deaths of a 40-year-old man and a 15-year-old girl in separate incidents. Both victims were struck while in agricultural fields during the rains.
