With the rains, come the unending traffic snarls. On Thursday, the city witnessed traffic jams due to heavy rains.
The rains, which lashed the city, caused water logging in many parts of the city, which eventually led to traffic jams and forcing people to either stay indoors or choose alternative routes.
Trains were also running late thanks to the rains, reports said.
