In the aftermath of relentless monsoon rains, the streets of Mathura have transformed into tumultuous rivers, disrupting normal life and posing severe challenges to residents across the region.
The Meteorological Department has issued warnings as heavy rainfall continues to lash several states, spanning from Uttar Pradesh to Karnataka. Anticipating further precipitation over the next three days starting from Thursday, authorities are on high alert.
The resurgence of the monsoon in Uttar Pradesh has exacerbated the situation, leading to widespread waterlogging and flooding in various parts. In Mathura specifically, the impact has been particularly severe, with residential areas submerged under water. Residents are facing immense difficulties, struggling to navigate the inundated streets and remaining confined within their homes.
A poignant image from Mathura depicts an ambulance partially submerged in floodwaters, symbolizing the challenges faced by emergency services amidst the deluge. Prompt action was taken as a JCB was deployed to retrieve the ambulance, highlighting the collaborative efforts to mitigate the crisis.
