How Kolkata ended up waterlogged after overnight rains?

Kolkata is grappling with the aftermath of its heaviest rainfall in decades, leaving a trail of destruction and claiming seven lives. The city witnessed an unprecedented 332mm of rainfall in Garia Kamdahari, significantly surpassing the previous record of 286.8mm recorded in 1986. This deluge has plunged large parts of the city, particularly the southern and eastern zones, underwater. Knee-deep water has inundated homes, roads, and railway tracks, bringing daily life to a standstill. The severe waterlogging has resulted in tragic consequences, with at least seven fatalities reported due to electrocution. Power cuts have been implemented in several waterlogged areas as a safety precaution. The city's transport system has been crippled. Kolkata Metro services between Shahid Khudiram and Maidan stations remain suspended due to waterlogging between Mahanayak Uttam Kumar and Rabindra Sarobar stations. ..............................................................................................
