NEW DELHI: Rains lashed parts of north India triggering landslides in some places in which two persons were killed while five died in floods in West Bengal where the situation was improving.
Rail traffic remained affected due to heavy rains in Gujarat and Rajasthan. Six trains including the Jodhpur- Gandhidham Express have been cancelled, eight trains partially cancelled and route of four have been changed.
Rains drenched the national capital leading to a dip in the maximum temperature which settled at 31 degrees Celsius, three notches below the season’s average, while the minimum temperature was recorded at 27.8 degrees.
The toll in West Bengal floods rose to 39 with the death of five more persons even as the situation improved due to less rainfall and the receding water level of rivers. (AGENCIES)
