NDTV
Delhi received nearly 230 mm of rainfall between 8:30 am on Thursday and 8:30 am today, marking the highest 24-hour rainfall in the city in June since 1936.
Fallen branches of trees, barricades, a car, and a Scooty submerged in water, and a man cycling through a bylane in near knee-deep water. This was the scene outside AAP Minister Atishi's home in the posh Lutyens area after the national capital logged record rain in 88 years.
One of the minister's staff was seen sweeping water off the property and draining it onto the already-inundated road in the high-security area. Water had entered the security kiosk outside the sprawling bungalow.
The prestigious Foreign Correspondents' Club of South Asia is just two houses down from Atishi's in the same lane. Members include over 500 journalists and photographers working in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Bhutan, Nepal, Maldives, Afghanistan, and Tibet, diplomats, lawyers, and others.
