HEAVY SHOWERS LEAVE CITIZENS HIGH & DRY, 2 DIE


The skies finally opened up over the city, but the rain brought death and chaos in its wake on Thursday


Tree fall fells MBA aspirant 

• A tree fall at Lower Parel killed 24-year-old MBA aspirant Ashwini Satpute of Kandivli. In Badlapur, Vasant Virkar (62) died after he fell on the tracks while trying to board a train for Dadar during the rush hour when heavy rain disrupted train services 
75mm rain in suburbs 

• From Wednesday night to Thursday evening, Santa Cruz recorded 75.4mm of rain and Colaba 20.6mm. But the downpour did not translate into a rise in lake levels 
Train services hit 

• Showers crippled local train services on all 3 lines, with flooding causing signal failure at many locations 
Roads in deep water 

• Waterlogging led to traffic snarls, washing away the BMC's claims on monsoon preparedness

Many areas in the city were water-logged, driving motorists and pedestrians to despair. P 2
