Schools, Colleges in Mumbai to Remain Closed Today
Maharashtra government on Friday announced that all schools and colleges will remain closed today.
With the incessant rains halting the city's lifeline local trains, many office-goers today bicycled to work, calling it the best alternative to reach their destinations in time.
