Monsoon mayhem in pictures: Landslide in Himachal, orange alert in Delhi, waterlogged Mumbai

Heavy rains lashed parts of India on Sunday as the monsoon arrived. In view of this, for Delhi, an orange alert has been issued. Also, heavy downpours affected vehicular movement on some roads and waterlogging on others. 

Flash floods after heavy rain swept away buildings and cars at tourist spots in Himachal Pradesh while bad weather also led to the closure of the airport in Dharamshala.

Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami visited the disaster control room in Dehradun to review the situation and advised Char Dham pilgrims to proceed on their journey only after taking a weather update. 

Incessant rain triggered landslides, blocking a number of roads, while the water level has risen in several rivers, including the Ganga.

Mumbai and its suburbs also received heavy rains in the last 24 hours, resulting in water-logging at various places and affecting vehicular movement on some roads. 

Additionally, water-logging in areas like Malad and Andheri slowed down the traffic further.
