The continuous rainfall in Maharashtra has severely impacted Mumbai, disrupting public transport and causing significant inconvenience to commuters. On Friday, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) issued an orange alert for Madhya Maharashtra, effective July 28.

Several regions in Maharashtra are currently experiencing heavy rainfall, leading to severe waterlogging and extensive traffic congestion in cities including Mumbai.
