The monsoon rains have had a severe impact on both lives and livelihoods in North India. Light rains were witnessed throughout the day in Delhi-NCR and nearby areas on Saturday. This led to severe traffic snarls due to waterlogging in several areas. The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued an alert for light to heavy rains for several states today, including Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Delhi-NCR, Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Bihar.
