Unusual scenes have emerged in the Mumbai Metro as rainwater was seen coming inside from ceiling gaps on Tuesday. Mumbaikars travelling in the metro train recorded the incident and posted it on social media. The Maharashtra's capital received unpredicted heavy rainfall during the interviewing nights of Monday and Tuesday, with thunderstorms and gusty winds.
Due to heavy rainfall in the early hours of Tuesday, rainwater was seen dripping from the roof of the Mumbai Metro train's compartment, and its video was shared widely on social media websites.
