Mumbai rains cause waterlogging, 11-year-old dies
Mumbai's ongoing heavy rains are causing major problems: think waterlogged roads and traffic jams. Some routes like the Andheri subway have even been shut temporarily.
In another tragic incident, an 11-year-old boy died after a tree fell on his school bus in Tilak Nagar.
With more rain expected (the India Meteorological Department has issued an orange alert), it's a tough time for the city right now.
