As half of Delhi remains engulfed in flood-like conditions, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued predictions of light to moderate rain accompanied by thunderstorms for the next 4-5 days in the national capital.

Yamuna river in Delhi is flowing at record high as water reached low-lying areas around ITO and Kashmiri Gate.
