These 10 Tweets Will Show You Just How Badly Pune Has Been Affected Thanks To Intense Rains!
Punekars, you’ve all suffered through the torrential rains the city has been experiencing this whole week. The heavy downpour in the evenings and all throughout the night has lead to walls collapsing, low-lying areas to be waterlogged, bikes and cars damaged and the worst of it all, is that the rains have killed 12 people and more than 10,500 people have been rescued. With no signs of slowing down, in just 48 hours, Pune streets were converted into rivers and life as we know it came to a halt. From lack of proper civil work to poor disaster management, here’s what the Twitterati of Pune had to say...
Will the real authority responsible, please stand up?

Well, That Puts Things Into Perspective
Crazy rains in #Pune last night. But big variability across suburbs.

Parts of South Pune got over 130 mm last night! Most of it in a 3 hour intense spell.
(To put it in perspective - that's around 20 percent of Pune's annual rain, in 3 hours!)#PuneRains https://t.co/TFQ9TFMDZZ
