Delhi's monsoon preparedness questioned amid 445 trouble spots
Delhi's gearing up for the monsoon, but there's a big concern: waterlogging spots across the city have more than doubled since last year, now at 445.
Key areas like ITO and Rajghat are especially at risk because of ongoing roadwork and blocked drains.
The rains are expected to hit on June 24, so all eyes are on how the city handles it this time.
PWD teams clearing stormwater drains
To tackle the flood risk, PWD teams are busy clearing out stormwater drains and fixing roads, with a focus on hotspots like Ring Road near Rajghat.
Minister Parvesh Verma says both quick fixes and bigger upgrades are in the works, though some places—like Mundka—will need more time for real change.
Meanwhile, opposition parties and experts want better drainage plans, but some locals say they're seeing more effort from the government this year and hope things will improve.
