STORYLINE: Low lying areas in India's capital Delhi continue to remain flooded on Saturday, despite the River Jamuna's water levels slowly starting to recede. The water level of the Jamuna River flowing through the Indian capital topped a 40-year record, exceeding 207 meters, or about 680 feet, on Wednesday evening. Schools and colleges were closed after record monsoon rains led to massive waterlogging, caved in roads, collapsed homes and gridlocked traffic in large parts of northern India, killing more than 100 people within two weeks. The monsoon season between June and September brings most of South Asia’s annual rainfall. While the rains are crucial for agriculture, they often cause severe flooding and infrastructure damage. At least 88 people died, 42 of them in the past six days, and more than 100 were injured in the worst hit mountainous Himachal Pradesh state where cars, buses, bridges and houses were swept away by swirling flood waters, a state government statement said. The region is nearly 500 kilometers (310 miles) north of New Delhi. In New Delhi, residential areas close to the Jamuna River were flooded, submerging roads, cars and homes, leading to the evacuation of thousands of people from low-lying areas. Dozens of cars were blocked by sheets of water, throwing the movement of vehicles into disarray during the morning rush hour in New Delhi on Thursday. Commuter Surmukh Singh said he had been forced to travel a long distance to get to work to avoid the floods. Meanwhile, thousands continue to live in relief camps due to their homes still being flooded.
