Incessant rain lashes city

Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis were on a Nagpur visit on Monday and took a review on the flood situation in Vidarbha.

The incessant rain since Monday morning again led to water logging in many low-level areas.

Citizens took to social media to complain about the poor preparation done by Municipal Corporation for the monsoon season.

The Regional Meteorological Centre (RMC) Nagpur has been issuing heavy rainfall warnings for Nagpur and nearby areas.
