The Gurgaon police advised "patience and discipline" as traffic slowed down after the first burst of rain.
Social media was full of pictures of waterlogging and clogged roads, with cars slowing down to a crawl in many areas.
If the water is deep enough to submerge your vehicle's exhaust pipe, then try to avoid the road. #BeRainSafe
