The video was posted on Twitter by a user and an independent weather forecaster, 'Kashmir Weather'.

National Conference leader Omar Abdullah also shared the video post, but took a dig at the administration, saying it was a pity that the basic drainage was not improved in Srinagar city when it was beautified under the smart city project ahead of the G20 meeting in May.
"This chowk was just 'beautified' under the "Smart City" programme a month ago to impress the participants of the G20 tamasha. It's a pity the basic drainage wasn't improved when that metallic thing was put in the middle of the road," Abdullah said in a tweet.
